Do You Honey

Growing up I would watch music videos, read magazines, look at pics of my fellow peers and post pictures on my wall with the latest celebs. I aways wanted to be sexy and feel sexy but I didn't know how to do it like the girls in the videos. My whole view on "being sexy" was fucked up (excuse me language but this is how I talk). To this day I still don't know how to be sexy or take sexy pics. This year I realized I don't have to be sexy like the girls in the videos or like the models in magazines. Through out this fitness journey I develop confidence within myself than any other time in my life. I wasn't always comfortable in my own skin and I constantly would point things out to myself. I may not be where I want to be physically but at least I'm more comfortable in my skin. I feel strong, motivated, and have a just do it attitude. I've learned that "being sexy" is a feeling and I have to do things that make me feel sexy. I'm sexy in my own weird, goofy, girly but not girly, stylish way and I LOVE IT. Just like Beyonce said "I'm FLAWLESS!" This year was just a start for me and I'm excited to see where God will take me in the future. The world better look out for Rochelle White. 

To my beautiful ladies out there don't try to fit in what society thinks is beautiful. Be yourself, love yourself, and enjoy YOUR life because we only live once. 

Hope you enjoyed your Xmas

This year I really didn't want much for Christmas. All I really wanted was to spend time with family and enjoy some good food. My boyfriend spent the Christmas with my family and he decided to cook dinner for everyone (he so sweet) and my brother helped him. So I decided to make breakfast for everyone and it turned out great. I made pancakes from scratch for the first time and it was a HIT baby. The only thing that was whack was my French toast I should of made them from scratch. Here are the pics:

Breakfast: waffles, whole grain homemade pancakes, turkey sausage, potatoes, eggs, French toast, homemade fruit cup and smoothie. 

Dinner: which was really good. We had salmon, BBQ pull chicken, fried chicken, cabbage, sweet potatoes, and brown rice 

We had a great time eating and I didn't feel bad at all. It was awesome. 

On another note I got these babies for Christmas from my boothang and I love them (they are so my style).

I was very excited. 

The shoes look way better in person. 

I hope you guys enjoy yourself. 

You vs You

Today was upper body in the gym but after my workout I decided to play with the ball. Now I've been practicing plank pike up on the ball and haven't been successful. I thought since I could do on the TRX (which is a challenge) that it would be easy on the ball. I don't know what I was thinking but it's not the same therefore I had to practice. I think I prolly tried four or five times and I finally did it today. I was so hype because I held it for a second then I decided to do it with one leg in the air (I only held that position for a second or two). I was so hype because I finally did it. Listen people you are your biggest competitor so don't let yourself lose or think you can't do it. If you set your mind (mind over matter) you will succeed. 

I recorded myself and screenshots a few pictures. 

I Love Discounts

Every time I go to the bookstore I always go to the sale section. I will pick a book that sounds interesting but it has to be on sale. Normally I love reading inspirational or motivational books because I loving learning new things about myself and the way people think. Lately I've been reading fiction books and I have to say I miss reading books with a good plot. Today while I was in the book store In the sale section I found three books: 

I love Joel Osteen so I'm excited to read his book. Now I don't do hood books anymore but I saw TI's book and I decided "What the heck? Lets go for it." Plus I love TI and the family and I couldn't beat the sale price. The last book seemed like it had a good plot so I brought it.  

Which one will I read first???????

Slow Progress

If you didn't know I'm trying to get a flat stomach by the summertime. I usually don't post progress pics but I think it's important for me to see my journey. In the past, I didn't track my progress so these pics are from this year. 

Left pic date: Sept 29, 2013 and  Right pic date: Dec 8, 2013

I still have a long way to go so pray for me lol no seriously I need it 

Yonce

Omg I finally experience life with Beyonce lol earlier this week I went to her concert with my sister and friends. I had a great time and Beyonce killed it. Here are a few pics:

Nice Weather

It was so nice outside this weekend I had to workout outdoors. I LOVE being outdoors and enjoying nature. I can't wait until it gets warm again. 

Awesome Workout

I had a great workout today with the family. Check my Instagram page to see my workouts: http://instagram.com/p/h9BSSZmFi6/

And here some pics from my warmup:

Get Low Girl

I had a great workout today. I'm working on adding weights and getting low on my squats. 

Bow Down to the King

I am a huge Beyoncé fan so when she bless me with music yesterday morning I was super excited. I love this cd because it's sounds different from her other CDs and she seems more confident within herself. I love the music videos and the dancing. This lady reinvented herself and I respect her hustle. If you're not a Beyoncé fan at least respect how hard she works. This is one of the reasons I love Beyoncé because she show us that we can have it all in life if we work for it. I'm all for women empowerment and I love when women work hard in life. Beyoncé inspired me to hustle harder and I can still be Flawless at the same damn time. Of course I have some pics I got on Instagram: 

At least I TRIED

So today I was off due to the weather and I decided to do a handstand. I saw this girl do a handstand on Instagram and I wanted to try it. Here is the pic of the girl:

Girl you just Did It

I went to the gym this morning and you can check my workouts on IG: stylishgirlfit. 

Below are pictures of me stretching after my workout:

Here is a pic of my post workout snack:

DIY: Mango Salsa

Today I decided to get a little creative and make my own salsa. Every time I go to whole foods I buy there mango salsa so now I'm making my own. Here is what I used: 

Not bad for my first time :-) next time I will make it a little more spicy. 

Still Got It

While I was working out I seen this cute old man with a walker. I instantly got motivated when I saw him and decided to do a little extra in the gym. There is no excuse to do better if this old man with a walker is still pumping then YOU CAN DO IT TOO!!!!

I also saw this pic on Instagram and again I was motivated. Shoutout to the older individuals who are still getting it in the gym.

Yum Yum Time

Currently cooking dinner and had to take a pic of my delicious vegetables I'm cooking. I've never been a fan of vegetables but I grew to love vegetables through my journey. Veggies can be fun if you make it fun and tasty. Anywhoo I'm about to get my grub on have a good night people :-) 

Here is the final product:

My New Babies

On Black Friday I went to the Bloomingdales outlet and I met these babies. I instantly fell in love and I brought them. I got them for $53 with the sale discount. The original price was $150 so I couldn't resist these babies when I saw the sale price. Shoes like these are so my style and I can't wait to wear them. I also got a pair of black wedge over the knee boots at Aldo for $40 and the original price was $200 (now that's a steal). These boots were sold out at the store so the sales clerk ordered them online for me. I can't wait for my other babies to come in the mail. I've been having my eye on them for a long time. 

Side note: I'm not a big shoe person but I love boots and booties. I always buy shoes on sale unless it's a must have and that only happens every blue moon. So ladies if you have your eye on a shoe be patient because most of the time it will go on sale.
