The 'effed up standards of Hollywood

 Okay so tonight after I had gotten done with my Insanity Max:30 workout of Friday Night Fights, I was feeling really good about myself for pushing through and not maxing out until 11:03, that is until I stepped on the scale and realized that my week off has really pushed me back again.  But it was a good wake up call and it made me realize that I was falling off the bandwagon so to speak. Time to go back to utilizing my apps to log my food and make sure I push myself more, use my free time to go for walks (going to have to start out with small ones but still).
 Anyways, the other reason for tonight's post other than my update, after I saw the scale and came to get ready to write a new post I saw a post from one of my favorite radio stations 102.7 KIIS FM on facebook and I'll give you the link right here http://www.kiisfm.com/photos/main/slimmed-down-celebs-266623/23618907/#/0/23618907 but I was completely flabbergasted when I saw who they featured in this. The post is called, "28 Slimmed down Celebs" so I'm thinking, "Oh they're featuring celebrities that had struggled in the past with weight and over came it" and it was, BUT some of the women they feature where at healthy weights before their "slim down". Also the caption for this slideshow was "See who went from fat to fab, I would not EVER consider some of those women to ever be "fat", curvy yes but still healthy!

For example that's what they said about Miranda Lambert
 These are the pictures they used for Miranda, let me just say I would kill for her "fat" body. She's a healthy weight in that picture, just because she's not a skinny "heroin chic" weight doesn't mean she's not attractive or that she's "fat". The only real differences in these pictures is her posture is different, her hair is cut, she's obviously wearing a better bra and she's more toned. 
Raven Simone is an actual badass with her badassery
 Raven always struggled with her weight, I remember watching her on Disney Channel on "That's so Raven" but I never thought about her curvy figure, I just always thought she was amazing because her character fought for the right to have great clothes for plus size models and in one episode even fought to model an outfit of her's in a runway show rather than use the smaller model who was chosen.  She is one of the only female celebrities that they used that I could agree did an amazing job with kicking ass and losing the weight she wanted to lose,  no surgery or anything that happens in Hollywood these days, just badass natural weight loss. She is what I aspire to be like because she is amazing. she did the work for herself not for anyone else, and the results where amazing, on top of that Raven has always been honest and laid it all out there. 
 This is why I am set on not thinking I have to be Hollywood standards of skinny, because let's face it Hollywood is ridiculous.  Anyways my mom has become a "Beach Body Coach"! so if you have any questions about the Insanity Max:30 workouts, or the Shakeology drinks or anything else you can find her profile here! http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.beachbodycoach.com%2Fscienceesl&h=bAQHtxRb1
