Welcome!

Hi there!

I’m running lazy girl fitness–more of a personal accountability blog, but also a place for me to share my journey with fitness as it applies to my mental and physical health and overall wellbeing.

I’m not a fitness instructor. I’m not a personal trainer, or a fit-tuber, or a gymfluencer. I’m not super ripped and I don’t run marathons (the thought of a marathon makes me want to take a nap if I’m being honest). I am, though, someone who found personal freedom through my own fitness journey, and I’d like to share it with others.

Between you and me, I don’t even have a six-pack. Or a four-pack. I have a two-pack on a good morning, first thing before my coffee or water.

I’m not going to claim to be a fitness expert (at this point, that should be obvious). But I am someone who changed her entire body several times over with exercise and a (relatively) healthy lifestyle. I went from a chubby high-schooler, to gaining a freshman fifteen…or so…. to suffering through an eating disorder, to where I am now.

I’m also not rich. I spent my first few years of my process working out at home. Now I work out at the cheapest gym in town (I’m sure you have one nearby if you’re in anything resembling an American city) and it’s not perfect, but I keep getting better (like a fine wine).

If you’re someone who struggles with the idea of getting fit, of taking the first few steps, or of continuing your gym membership now that the January New Years resolution hype has died down, consider coming along my journey with me.

It’s not always easy, but I’m a “icecream almost every day” kind of girl, and I make it work. I’m not obsessed with weight loss, or weight gain, or being the biggest, buffest girl in the gym (though it’s a nice thought), but I am interested in creating a healthy body and a healthy mindset through varying types of exercise.

My weight fluctuates. I learn new things about myself nearly weekly. I feel stronger almost every time I go to the gym (with exceptions, of course).

Come hang out with me while I write about it 🙂
