But every person is different as is their ideal healthy weight. We should always be the best version of us, but not shame others if they don't look like fitness models!<br /><br />xoxo,<br /><a href="http://www.chicncheapliving.com" rel="nofollow">Chic 'n Cheap Living</a><br />little luxury listhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17630812969476483227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984459570188718580.post-75714162920012627932014-03-14T09:17:00.129-04:002014-03-14T09:17:00.129-04:00who is she trying to impress? what happened in her...who is she trying to impress? what happened in her life that she feels the need to be extremely controlling over her life like this, to make it "perfect"? good for her, but i think it's kinda crazy and not realistic.Elle Seeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700861489513811406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984459570188718580.post-77458719381814855682014-03-14T01:01:09.053-04:002014-03-14T01:01:09.053-04:00If she wants to inspire others to be healthy and g...If she wants to inspire others to be healthy and get fit that is one thing, but she shouldn't be putting others down and post the photo with "What's your excuse". Even Jillian Michaels has admitted that after having kids her life has gotten crazy. Plus if this woman is running on no sleep, that is where not healthy at all and no one should be promoting her method. Like you said, it's unrealistic and no one should be comparing themselves to anyone. We all have different bodies, inside and out. What might work for one person doesn't work for another.

I have 3 boys too and personal work out time was the first thing to go. My 'me' time is spent commenting on blogs ;) taking care of my home and prepping for an afternoon of chasing around and playing with my kids. Nights are for watching Tv, talking and drinking wine with my hubby. Healthy is definitely not always skinny and I am happy just the way I am!Kate @ Daffodilshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11014407841272156153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984459570188718580.post-63078879342008542582014-03-13T13:39:51.888-04:002014-03-13T13:39:51.888-04:00I agree, Nali.

The really sad part of it is that people take the message to heart and think they are somehow "failing" if they don't look like her and live the way she does.

I'm all for advocating a healthy lifestyle, but presenting the message in an arrogant way and promoting practices that aren't even healthy at all, such as getting little sleep, isn't right, at least in my opinion.
