Two years ago, during Christmas time, I was 20 pounds heavier than I am now. It all happened because I injured by back in October, and then couldn’t work out and also decided to give up on good nutrition and eat my feelings instead. I remember having to wear leggings and a baggy sweater at […]

The practices I use when I’m lacking motivation. We all know what it’s like to feel unmotivated. Sitting in front of the TV, or Facebook, or literally scrolling through your phone looking at nothing. Wasting time, when we could be doing so much more with our lives. It’s an epidemic of laziness, and when you […]

“Other things may change us, but we start and end with family.” – Unknown This weekend I spend time with family at my mom’s house. It’s an 8 hour drive to PA from NC and we got on the road late on Friday afternoon. Every night I stayed up late. And everyday I ate several […]

“I like big butts and I cannot lie.” -Sir Mix A Lot Every woman I know wants to have a nice behind. I’m no exception. I tend to hold fat as well as muscle in my butt. But if I don’t train, then gravity begins to take effect. In the past year, I have gotten away from […]

That time I ate 7 protein bars at one time because “they’re healthy, right?” This is a bit embarrassing, but a few years ago I was known for my binge eating confessions. I ate an entire jar of peanut butter in 1 day. A box of cereal would only last 2 days. A bag of […]

I’ve apparently become known for my waffle habit. And that’s okay because I do eat them everyday. I put butter and honey (or agave) on them and I enjoy them with super special low acidity organic coffee while I read in the mornings. This is my most delightful time (and I’m not even a morning […]

The Carbophobia epidemic is rampant these days. As I sit here and eat waffles every morning, I see friends and fellow fitness professionals eating cold salads with tuna, while telling themselves carbs are the enemy. I constantly have clients assuming that carbs are bad, and then cutting themselves down because they love carbs. Or they […]

Going through the year last year as a fluffy fitness model was discouraging, because I knew I could be better and I felt like there was an expectation for me to be better — since I was in the fitness industry. I was prepping for a bikini show (like the fourth time I was attempting […]

What do I teach people who are looking to lose fat? It’s a simple concept that Mark MacDonald from Venice Nutrition coined as “eating in threes”. What does that mean? There are 3 macronutritients: protein, carbs and fats. Eating in threes means that at each meal you are combining all of these macronutriteints to keep […]

You can almost smell the fried goodness… There’s something so tempting and appealing about a hot, salty perfectly peeled potato dunked in boiling oil. The temptation to chow down on French fries is always there. But when you actually have to smell the hot, salted goodness right up under your face — now that’s when […]

Help! I Hate Salads Recently I’ve been working with my mentor Jill Colman of JillFit physiques, and she has figured out a pretty good system of what works for her each day, nutrition wise. And I’ve been working with her to automate my physique so that I can spend more time on my business, and […]

Or I should have said, “Procrastinators: Read this when you feel like getting to it.” I’m feeling uninspired lately to write any blog posts. I don’t want to. Or I don’t have the time, or I don’t make the time. And I have other things that I would rather do.
Tonight, I sat down on my work/eat/watch tv/bible study/do everything chair and immediately went to work on my recent obsession of finding all the supplies needed to have a DIY garage gym. I searched on craigslist for close to an hour, and read all the facebook status updates and shared a few funny/inspiring videos to my friends’ walls. And now that I have an online business, I am convinced that every time I am the internet, I’m somehow “working” LOL.
I love these rationalizations that I make everyday on why I’m going to blog “tomorrow” or that I’m going to wait until I have something really “good” to blog about.
The point here is that I never want to blog.
And if I had my way I would never clean my house or my car or wash my hair, and I would replace any productive activities with laying on the couch eating cookie dough, and watching Netflix for hours, while checking Instagram on my phone and Facebook on my computer. And I would always be in sweatpants. What a life…
I’m lazy on the inside. And I think we all struggle with this. It just feels better to not do what we are “supposed to do.” And I’m also a little rebellious, so there’s that as well. Now, there are times when I completely do veg out on the couch. But there are more times when I make myself get up and do whatever it is I’m “supposed to do”. And actually, if I’m honest – It feels good when it is done. A clean room. A clean car. A workout completed. Chicken is grilled. Dogs are walked.
But it is the getting there that is the challenge.
The reason I want to share this with you is because I have heard from people that think I just “look this way because I was born fit” or I was born with a work ethic or some crap like that. I don’t think I was born with anything, but I think that discipline can be developed. The more you make yourself do things you don’t want to do – the more rewards you will reap. The easy things, like watching tv and eating snacks on the couch – are just that – EASY.
And too many people can do these things repeatedly and ultimately end up living an unhappy life. Yes. Life takes work. But I also believe that life is about balance. There was a time when I was an over-achiever and an workaholic. And I kept a crazy pace of life until quitting my job early this year.
I’m still achieving – but my goals have changed. I want more balance, I want less stress, and I want more happiness. I’ve been learning to let go of the things and people that drag me down, and am committed to living out my dreams despite what other people think.
I’m weird, I’m instinctively lazy and a procrastinator, but there is this voice inside me that wants more and knows my potential. And I am convinced that everyone has this voice inside them – the mothering one that says, “Well you know you should be doing A,B, and C right now, but you are choosing to be lazy and eat gummy bears instead.”
Sometimes I ignore that voice and decide to lay on my couch. But that voice is there for a reason. The more you ignore it, the quieter it gets, until it fades away like the dreams you once dreamt for your life.
If your “mother” voice has faded, I’m here to get out the BULLHORN and become the craziest MOTHER you have ever heard and tell you to get your butt up off the couch and do what you KNOW you are supposed to be doing right now. (And I will probably have to read this blog to myself sometimes when I am feeling like I don’t want to put away my laundry/wash my car/wash the dishes/go to the gym!)
Until next time…with motherly love…~Camy
