#BBG Weeks 1-4 progress!⁣ ⁣ I started quaranti

#BBG Weeks 1-4 progress!⁣
⁣
I started quarantine instantly missing my 1-2x week hot yoga class. Hot yoga was always therapeutic to me. It cleared my mind and soothed my emotions as much as it stretched my body. I also missed my boxing and Pilates classes. But at the onset of the pandemic my motivation was ZERO.⁣
⁣
But as days turned into weeks I needed to move so I dipped my toe into at home yoga classes and sculpt classes but could barely pay attention for more than 10 minutes. So I focused on 10-15 minute core classes. ⁣
⁣
But then weeks turned into months so by mid April I decided I need to do something for my mental health and to help offset my comfort food and baking habits. Enter: my return to @sweat BBG by @kayla_itsines. The one program I’ve had noticeable results with. I’ve done BBG Beginner, 1.0 and half of 2.0 - from July 2018 through July 2019. Then I had my skin cancer surgery and never revisited the program as I healed...⁣
⁣
Until now and DAMN has it felt good. This challenging program pushes me and the sweating has felt like an emotional cleanse. I can’t tell you JUST HOW GOOD the sweat felt the first week I picked back up the program 🥵. I nearly cried because it felt so good. A slice of normalcy and something to remind myself that I can take a challenge and I can push myself. I’m now 5 weeks in and sharing today on wit & whimsy my foray back into the program plus answering all the questions you guys submitted to me!⁣
⁣
Hope you find the post motivating and inspiring and know that no matter what you need to do to get yourself through these days - it’s the right thing. For me finding my way back to BBG has so been rewarding. So hard. But so rewarding. I put together a little compilation of all my progress photos too and will share it on Stories #sweatwithkayla #bbgtransformation #bbgprogress #workout #fitness

Realizing I was in London this week two years ago

Realizing I was in London this week two years ago really sent me down a rabbit hole of photos of #LondoninBloom. May in London is magical with all the floral installations alongside the Chelsea Flower Show and I literally cannot wait to return one day to see all the blooming sights again. In the meantime, if you need me, I’ll be on a virtual tour of London via my camera roll 😜 #witwhimsylondon #london #blooms #prettycitylondon

The best self tanners for fair skin blog post is here 🙌🏻 I did a comprehensive guide all about my favorite self tanning products with before and after photos (swipe left to get a sneak peek), how to prep your skin PLUS I answered the most frequently asked questions. This post was a labor of love (now understand why I never did it before 🤪) so I hope you find it helpful! #selftanner #tanning #faketan #wwbeautypicks

On this Memorial Day I’m taking a moment to stop and smell the roses figuratively. It’s a day to be thankful for those who have served our country and a day to count our blessings. Sending love to each and every one of you! #memorialday #witwhimsy #mdw #roses
