What's really in your bag?

      The average weight of the adorable bags carried around everyday by fashion slaves, inventors and muses is between 13-7.3 pounds, it is estimated to have gone down in weight since the increase in multipurpose electronics. Needless to say even with this new inventions their still a lot of stuff in our bags,is it possible that even our bags have water weight? In fact it is, in each bag it is estimated the average bag carrier is carrying around somewhere around $50-$312 in what we consider purse 'essentials' which is weighing up to equal big problems for our backs. The cause for alert was sent out by the American Chiropractic Association, is it true that us bag hauling fashionistas are making yet another sacrifice for fashion?
  If you could have x-ray vision in to the average woman's bag you would probably see the following item:
-Water Bottle
-Wallet
-Check book
-Deodorant
-Hand lotion
-Lip gloss
-Ipod
-Cell phon
-Keys
-Nail file
-Various Medications
-Gum
-Glass
-Sun Glasses
-Makeup
-Tampon/Pads
-Band Aids
TIME TO TIME
-Books,Shoes,Clothes,Chargers for electronic devices. 

Needless to say theirs a lot more then we think about in our bags, it should be considered a work out when walking a flight of stairs with your 9lb Louis Vuitton speedy 35, next time you load up think about what your doing to your back, or even better what your doing to the straps of you bag!

To see whats in my bag watch this video.

Getting Dynamic!

Lately I have been looking for a way to change my look, I have found this solution in conturing my facial features and eye brows. By using my own beauty and the artistry of conturing the natural angles I have been able to go from round,red and ridiculous to a more exotic and appealing state.


BEFORE

By using foundation and concealer by AVON I am able to hide any blemish and off color and set my skin in at an all over even tone, I ride myself of shine by using a light color powder and working it in to my skin. By using Congo by Mary Kay I then high light the following areas:
 -The area above your eye brows. 
-Under your cheek bones,if you have thicker face or not as visible cheek bones try sucking your cheeks to get a better idea where to apply the powder to give your face the depth. 
-Along your jaw line is a great way to hide any visible double chin and give your jawline some extra power. 
By high lighting these areas you will create an illusion of angles and shadowing that has been hidden.

If you find you have an unhappiness with your nose try highlighting the sides and then a draw a line down the center to give your your nose a thinner appearance or an all over different look.  Forget plastic surgery, if you are able to conture your face correctly you will be able to change your look completely.

The finished product:

On the skinny side.

December 30,2010 that is the date when I decided to take control of my gut,stomach,spare tire,tummy,fluff. I have to say I see a difference in the photographs,but the number on the scale tells a much different story. The first weigh in ever done I was 224lbs, now I am 228, in my mind i'm quite confused I did all the proper pre-weigh in activity's and although until recently I haven't been to focused on weight loss their is defiantly a difference in the size of my tummy;however, don't just take my word for it have a look your self! 


Side Shots:
224lbs

228lbs


Front shots:


I still want to avoid becoming obsessed with the number that appears in the scale, so weigh in's will only occur every other Friday or Saturday.  The next weigh in will be July 29/30 exactly  7 months since this journey started. Between then and now look out for weight loss  adventure,updates,milestone videos! Check out my weight loss videos on Youtube, especially the one related to this very blog post! 


-See you on the skinny side! xxo

Let the weight loss & positive footsteps begin!

On July 15 2011 I will resume making weight loss videos and posting them on YOUTUBE to document my trials and tribulations of being a teen trying to loose weight. I have been gathering clips that will also be featured in this video. I began this journey at 224lbs  on December 30,2010 and this Friday we will see where I stand. 


Photos from the first weigh in:

This has been a roller coaster that has only just begun,I hope you will all rejoin me on my journey and take the support I offer. 
       
             I wanted to take this chance to speak out to those who struggle against being bulled or are struggling in dark situations but mostly at this time  over their weight and encourage them to be "Pro-Self Power". I want to empower all people to send the positive idea that they can fight through any form harm and that their are people all around that are willing to help you. I know what it is like to be hurt and make fun of because of the extra weight that you carry around and I am here to say that you are powerful and can fight through any negativity that holds you down!
