If you haven't noticed yet, I sort of gear this blog to not only healthy eating and life choices, but to indulging yourself as well! That's the beauty of this space!
But one other thing I should make clear is that I am a huge champion of the "Yoga Pants All Day Everyday" campaign. Of course, this also goes for leggings. Treat yourself!
National Treat Yo' Self day is technically October 13. It's also made up. But, I believe we should honor Donna and Tom's master idea.
Instead of shelving out mucho dinero for "velvet slippies" or a "crystal beetle" broach, let's direct this ingenious concept to HealthLikeMe. Part of being a realistic lover of health is knowing you can eat what you want. Not cheat days. But, a nice and proportional cheat meal. Don't limit yourself so you're miserable. Some easy and realistic ways I accomplish that are not meal prepping (really?!), but planning what I want to eat for every day of the work week. For example, Monday I'll bring lunch from home and have a super high-in protein for dinner on my commute home, Tuesday - one slice of pizza, Wednesday - a salad, Thursday... you get the picture! Also, it might help to always pay for your weekday meals in cash and don't take your debit/credit card. Keeps you within a limit! Super pants to the everyday rescue!
Yoga pants: they're not just your comfy lounge Hulu-binging pants.
They're your favorite traveling or brunching pants! Leggings: they're not just your "I'm bloated and I don't want anyone to notice pants. They're your go-to pants that make your ass look good! If you don't have a pair of leggings for AT LEAST each day of the week - with a few pair of yoga pants scattered here and there - you're tacky and I hate you. In the end, what can we gain from these two seemingly contradictory ideals?
Wear and do what makes you feel the most you. Do you feel powerful? Comfortable? Fearless? Alluring? If yoga pants or leggings don't have you feeling as if you can take on the world, that's alright! Find what does - whether it's taking a a new workout class, cooking class, making a meal out of queso, going to brunch with your friends, shopping or even just starting a blog - and treat yo self to them! Indulge the right way!
