Breakfast is definitely my favorite meal of the day. I just love waking up, feeling fresh and energized and ready for a healthy fuel to start my day right. On vacation it is not always easy to choose the healthy option, especially if you just started to change your lifestyle. I would recommend choosing fresh, local products, minimal processed and definitely stay away from high sugary drinks or lemonades. If you eat at a place where they offer a buffet, try to spot the healthier options. Choose whole wheat instead of white bread, try to include healthy fats from seeds, nuts or avocados and grab a good protein source, like eggs, salmon and yoghurt.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We all know it, we all do it, every single year, over and over again: new years resolutions. Let’s be honest, how many times were you thinking about something and definitely planning on doing but then ended up not achieving it? I know it’s frustrating and we’ve all been there at some point. Many people actually plan on changing their life: trying to live a healthier and more active lifestyle, or signing up for a gym membership, etc…but when spring comes around the corner, well let’s say it is not our number one priority anymore, right? But how can we change something that actually lasts? Are we able to create new habits and how does it work?

Yesterday, I attended the event “A morning with Kayla Itsines” in New York City. The morning included a breakfast, a presentation of Kayla Itsines’ second book “The Bikini Body Motivation & Habits Guide” including a signed copy of it, a goody bag – I’ll list below all the items that were included – and a meet & greet. The ticket price was $58.37.

As you might know, Kayla was the one who changed my lifestyle a couple of months ago as I started my fitness journey with her BBG programs. Now, that I’ve gained a lot of knowledge in this field, I still think that her programs are a great guide for a healthier and active lifestyle.

This book tour event was the second time I met Kayla in person. The first time was at the beginning of this year at a BBG Meetup in New York City, where a lot of girls got the chance to work out with her. Since this first one, I always try to attend her events. Many of you haven’t been to one so I thought it might be helpful if I would share my thoughts about it.

Yesterday’s event was dedicated to her second book and a perfect chance to pick up some personal tips on how to stay motivated and on track with your health and fitness journey.
