    Tumblr is slowly sucking me back in…

    Can’t say I’m upset about it. Hahaha. ;)

    They stare at me while I stare at you;

    I walked into the room dripping in gold
    Yeah dripping in gold
    I walked into the room dripping in gold
    Dripping in gold
    A wave of heads did turn, or so I’ve been told
    Or so I’ve been told
    My heart broke when I saw you kept your gaze controlled
    Oh I cannot solve.

    life does happen and you will get back to lifting and everything else soon. it sounds like you have bigger things on your plate for now. you’ll get there. Best wishes!!

    Having one of my most inspirational women tell me this completely overwhelmed me and brought (happy) tears to my eyes. I needed to hear this.

    I think a lot of people had the misconception that I was only into lifting because Matt is. That I’m just a silly girl who will follow a boy around and do whatever they do. And I think for a second I wondered that for myself…I quickly realized however that this is NOT me. I may have been weak for a little while, we all have times like that, but I will always know who I am inside. Strangers on the internet do not. I am a strong soul and confident in my individuality. 

    Today I was watching So You Think You Can Dance and seeing the passion the contestants have for their form of art was so inspiring…I suddenly missed the passion I had for lifting and I felt it come back.

    I realized today that fitness/health is my passion in life. In order to live a full life, we must feel a passion for something. Whether it be horseback riding, painting, making bracelets, gardening, street racing, surfing, reading, writing…we all need something to derive a love for life from.

    I know what mine will always be now. I hope you find yours as well. :)

    I felt more like myself again today :)

    Once I’m feeling completely “better” (not that I’m bad…just not the same. If that makes sense), maybe I’ll come back.

    We’ll see.

    Missing you guys! I hope you all are doing well and staying on track with your goals. If you haven’t been, that’s okay. I wasn’t either. But I’m gaining my passion for lifting back…I don’t know what happened; sometimes life just happens. But I feel like I’m myself again :) You just have to learn to forgive yourself because sometimes we just need time. Time for what, I’m not sure, but sometimes time is just what we need.

    I’m going to Arkansas to stay with my roomie for a week (YAHOO!) next Tuesday and I think I might bring some ZWOWs to do. We’ll be at her lake house for about 3/4 days and I think it would be fun to do some with her :)

    See ya later alligators!

    Here’s where to find me!

    Email: beccasfitlife@gmail.com » I’ll try to start catching up on these! Forgive me if it takes a while…

    I’m signing out now. I’ve deleted the app from my phone so hopefully that will help. Haha :) Just know that I love you all especially Charlotte, Evan, Carly, Marta, Theresa, and so many others I can’t think of right now. I am forever sending you light and love.

    I suddenly feel sad…but I’m really happy with where I am right now. I’ve learned to really love my body for how it is now. I feel truly healthy, even though my working out hasn’t been stellar that past few weeks. I think I’ve finally developed a healthy mindset and balance with eating.

    I just now need to work on being mentally healthy and for me, that means “unplugging” and spending more time outside and with friends rather that connected to the internet. Maybe I’ll come back later on but I’m not sure right now.

    I hope you all know that you are beautiful souls and sexy mamacitas. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you guys. <3

    PS: Just breathe.

    I’ve been thinking about unplugging from Tumblr for a little while…

    It just doesn’t feel the same to me anymore.

    If I were to ever stop posting on here you could all still find me on Twitter/Instagram and I would start to regularly post on Fitocracy.

    I just don’t like the feeling of being so socially networked…I don’t feel like it’s good for me.

    When I’m at the gym, I’m pretty sure I have a giant “FUCK OFF” stamped on my forehead.

    When I have a brutal workout all that goes through my mind is:

    • “Get out of my way.”
    • “Why the fuck are sitting there staring at me.”
    • “IF YOU GET ANY CLOSER TO ME I SWEAR I’M GOING TO PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE.”

    I can’t help it…

    • Mom: You don't want any meringue and strawberries?
    • Me: Mom. I just walked up the stairs. I can't walk back down.
    I CAN’T WAIT FOR LEGS DAY TODAY :D

    To be completely honest with you guys, those last couple weeks of school really messed with my sleeping/eating/working out habits. I fell off track, and while in kind of ashamed, I’m ready to get back to it today!

    Sometimes we go through stressful times and while it’s never good to get off track, that’s life. What’s important I that you back to it and rediscover your passion.

    I’m doing just that today :) love you guys!

    OMIGOD GUYS.

    I don’t have anything to do today. Meaning I can finally play Final Fantasy.

    If you want something to happen, make it happen.

    Because wishes won’t get you anything. Only actions will.

    Life is pretttttttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy great right now :)

    :D

    Why do I always think of clever things to say way after the fact?

    Why.

    So I’ve kind of been away from my blog lately…

    Sorry about that guys. The last couple weeks of school were hectic with award ceremonies, last minute assignments, and prom (! :)), but tomorrow is my official last day of school so I should have a lot more free time on my hands to share my work outs, new recipes, and all the fun stuff.

    I think last night was my favorite night of my senior year…top 3 of high school, if not #1. :)
