How To Be a More Confident Woman

Hey everyone, I know this is a change of pace for my blog but I think it is important. Not only will this help those close to me understand my "why" behind blogging but I also hope it helps other women out there struggling with self confidence.


              So the topic of this post may represent that I have all the answers on how to be a confident woman and sadly I do not. I can share though how I have become a more confident and self fulfilled young woman. A couple weeks ago I was thinking about life, and what I wanted my life to represent. I realized that one day I will look back on my life and ask myself did I do and become everything I wanted. At that moment I would have answered "no". So then I started to go through the process of making that answer a yes. Here is how I did it.

  • Who do you want to be? No, I do not mean what career do you want, although that could be what it means for you. I really mean what kind of person? A giver? A great mom? A great homemaker? A fashionista? Someone who is debt-free? Well whatever is start to prioritize it. Stop putting it off. Quit saying "I'll start tomorrow". If you really want to be something just start taking small steps toward it RIGHT NOW! You will be astonished at how one step towards your goal will give you so much happiness and purpose. That step can motivate you to accomplish your goal.

  • QUIT CARING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE!!! You will never be able to find your value, worth, or happiness in someone else. Doing what you think someone else approves of is not going to give you joy. So therefore, quit worrying what others may be thinking or saying. If you want to take a picture in front of a thousand people because you look good, do it! If you want to wear a tight shirt because it makes you feel good do it! If you start doing small things like this because it makes you feel good, you will start forgetting about others and start gaining more confidence in yourself. 

  • Lastly, be positive and kind. I know this may not seem relevant but it is! You will realize that doing things for others and sharing positivity will make you feel so GOOD about yourself. It will also bring positivity and kindness back to you. I see so many women bringing each other down each day, so I think it would be best if we do the complete opposite and start SHOUTING praises to one another. Not only can we help in making other women feel confident but in return we make ourselves feel more fulfilled. We are all in this together! 

In this Blog I included a collage of some of the women who inspire me and encourage me to be a woman who is independent, brave, kind, and so much more. If you are feeling encouraged please share this post with another women in your life! Thank you.

What I Eat in a Week on Keto

Starting keto can be overwhelming. It was a total reboot of how and what I eat. I will be honest, at first it was challenging, I was hungry and carving all the sugars and carbs. Just push through. Another challenging part of keto was coming up with meals and snacks that not only were delicious but also easy. I am going to show you what I eat in a typical week, on keto you do try to space your meals out. I typically try to not eat for a 12 hour period, so I really do not eat breakfast and try to keep snacking to a minimum. The good thing about keto, is that you stay full longer so not eating as many times a day is not that difficult. If I do eat breakfast it is typically just a couple eggs and bacon or sausage. Dinners  White chicken soup, this dish is SO good and super easy. Chicken, salsa Verde, butter, chicken broth, heavy cream, and cheese! Its that simple! I throw a couple low carb tortillas in the oven and throw them on top for some crunch! No noodle spaghetti, hits the cr

        I have been on keto for a little over a month and am LOVING it! I have lost twenty pounds and feel great. If you want some tips on starting keto please check out my blog How I Have Lost 20 Pounds In a Month on Keto. Ever since starting keto I have started cooking and eating at home a lot. I know that for me that was a huge change and it was really hard to know what to buy and cook. For that reason I have decided to share with you all what I buy from the grocery store while on keto. I typically go to Trader Joes once a week and do a big grocery haul from Winco/Walmart once a month. I also buy a few things off Amazon, my link to those are in the top left of my blog. This list is what I use to cook for both my boyfriend and I.  Here is what I buy: TRADER JOES : Frozen Berry Blend & Frozen Strawberries (great for smoothies) $3.49 / $1.99 Parsnip Chips (Very low carb & great sub for chips) $2.99 2 bags of Lettuce ( TJs has the best lettuce ) $1.99 each Organic

How I have Lost Twenty Pounds On Keto

Image
Right after my birthday I decided to start a new diet, KETO! I have done diets in the past, and nothing worked. Counting calories just didn't work for me, it was boring food, I was hungry, and it was not fun. Well, I love KETO! I do what they call lazy keto and eat between 20 - 40 carbs a day. You may be thinking what do carbs matter? Well you see that was my problem too. I did not realize how bad carbs were for me until I stopped eating them and saw the results. I have been eating food I love and have lost 20 pounds in a little over a month. On keto you eat LOW carbs, MODERATE protein, and HIGH fat. Keto is all about limited carbs. These are sugars, breads, pasta, potatoes, most processed foods, and more. It is also important to look at the net carbs of a product, this is the carb count subtracted by the fiber. Carbs do fuel our body, but for most of us we already have excess fuel and should be burning that rather then adding more carbs. Also, are bodies run better on fat are
