Gap Fit Nails it! by ssotelo12 featuring a nike footwear

Ladies and gentlemen! Let me introduce to you GAP FIT. I know, I know it’s not new to the rest of the world but it’s new to me. I am an avid GAP shopper when it comes to my everyday wear because most of the time the pieces they make will last years. When it comes to workout gear on the other hand, I am not one to branch out and try new brands. The problem with my body is that my legs are skinny, my boobs are big and my waste fits somewhere in between – so when it comes to shopping for athletic wear it’s either too big or barely fits in some areas. Not only is this discouraging but it has prevented me from really giving other brands a try. Needless to say, I stumbled upon Gap Fit over Christmas while shopping for family and decided I would give it a try. The material they use is similar to that of Lululemon which I am familiar with. I bought a few shirts like the one on the top right (pictured above) and decided to give the crops a try as well. What do you know, they were both great! The prices are reasonable and you are walking away with a great product. Thank you Gap for nailing it once again.

If buying new clothes will get you to the gym then you better get shopping! It’s the second week in January….how are you doing with your healthy makeover?

{What Drives you to be Healthy?}

Both of my parents have had cancer. My mom’s father died of emphysema and my dad’s dad died from cancer. I always told myself that if i get cancer, or have a heart attack…it will NOT be my fault. I know the secret to living a healthy life; eat healthy the majority of the time and work out consistently hard. Aren’t I a genius?? Not really. I’m just not lazy like others choose to be and then they ask why they’re overweight or why they’re unhealthy. What you put into your body is YOUR choice. Whether or not you wake up and put in the effort everyday to exercise is YOUR choice. I personally choose to be healthy and then I get of my ass and do something about it.

4 Healthy Snacks:

{Sabra hummus w/ mini carrots}

*Protein and Fiber and it’s delicious.

{Organic Peanut Butter/ Wheat toast w/ Organic Wildflower Honey}

*Makes me feel like I’m cheating when I’m not. It also reminds me of when I was a kid and would eat peanut butter every day.

{Hard Boiled Eggs}

*No nonsense protein. Always followed by some gum if im going to be engaging in conversation with other human beings.

{Zico chocolate Coconut Water}

*Zico chocolate Coconut Water + Cytofuse Vanilla Protein Powder in a ‘blender bottle’ = ridiculously good.

Favorite Cheat Snacks…

{Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Or Pizza}

*Krispy Kream doughnuts or Pizza. I’ll eat 6 donuts or 6 slices in a sitting without hesitation. My cheat meals are on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Wednesday because I’m halfway there and I’m human & Saturday because I kicked so much ass all week and worked out like an animal every day, sometimes twice a day, and dammit I deserve every last unhealthy, fattening calorie and I will not apologize for it or hide it.

Favorite Recipe…

{Spinach & Potato Frittata}
I make this pretty much every single weekend for breakfast or some variation of it.

Handful of spinach
Cup of diced potato
6 eggs

Saute spinach in olive oil, then throw in potatoes. Brown the potatoes in the pan. Meanwhile preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk eggs in a separate bowl then pour into pan and spread out evenly. Use salt and pepper to taste. Place entire pan into oven and bake until eggs are fluffy.
