I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas Eve & Christmas Day! Sorry I had been away from the blog world since Monday, I have been fairly busy because of the holidays —- which I consider a good thing, but this now means hopefully things will be dying down and I can get back to blogging regularly. With New Years on its way, I suppose we are preparing for 2018.
I would love for my readers/bloggers to answer a few questions?
Do you have any New Year’s resolutions?
What is your day after Christmas like?
What is one gift that you enjoyed the most from Christmas?
Do you like listening to Christmas tunes?
Did you eat better this year vs the previous year (i.e healthier, more portioned out, etc.)
What is your favorite Christmas movie?
Leave all your answers in the comment section! feel free to share this post among your peers so that they can answer as well!
You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct.
I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL.
My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.

1. I resolve to be like Shaylon.
2. Resting in an introvert coma.
3. I didn’t get any presents. I did something for my wife that’s like a gift to me.
4. Some but not on the radio and I try to block out the ones that play in the stores.
5. About the same. I gave up chocolate in 2017 so that’s healthier I suppose.
6. Die Hard.
I had no idea you gave up chocolate. What made you decide to give up chocolate? if you don’t mind me asking.
I have yet to see the movie “Die hard” but the radio was talking all about it. lol
I don’t particularly love Xmas music, but some I can tolerate more than others 🙂 I am happy I don’t work retail anymore where they would replay the same songs over and over and over again! lol
I don’t think being like me would get you very far, but regardless, I take it as a compliment. I got a gift from one of my brothers, it was a giftcard that said Happy birthday LOL even though mine is like in March, I guess it was the thought that counts, right! hahaha
I believe chocolate messes up my complexion. I had a couple bars before Christmas and it seemed like right away I had issues. But there are other reasons (beyond empty calories and sugar) – most off the shelf product has the blood of children as part of the production and it’s a diary product and I’m avoiding dairy as I work towards being vegan.
I’m kidding a bit about Die Hard. I’ve seen it but I’m not crazy about it. I don’t think I have a Christmas movie.
I hear you on the retail and replaying music. I think that broke me, too. On the other hand, I regularly plan special Christmas programs including all the music.
I want to become leaner. I got to 200lbs. I want to be there again and stay there. Didn’t I ask you to turn me into Henry Cavill (Superman)? I’m still waiting for you to whip me into shape.
A gift card is nice regardless of what it says. A family in the church gave us a $50 gift card to a sports store. Might get some new runners.
My son got me a four pack of chocolate bars so I said thanks but I gave them up so he ate them.
Christmas for me is complicated. I’m grateful God poured himself out for us so he could win back our hearts. But that didn’t happen on December 25. I love to give gifts and be with people. We prepared a gift box for our adopted daughter and it made my heart soar to know it was a huge blessing to her. But Christmas is so commercialized and hectic it feels phoney. When I was a college student (the first time around), I was broke and couldn’t get home. It was then that I really started to dislike Christmas.
I joined Weight Watchers after Thanksgiving. It is time to change my way of life. I do not feel like I am deprived at all. With some health challenges I have started slow and steady at the gym. Lost a few pounds but feeling better and stronger every day.
1. My new years resolution is to be more outgoing and try to get out of my comfort zone.
2. Awesome because we always go feed the elephants and giraffes!
3. I don’t really celebrate Christmas so unfortunately didn’t get any gifts… 😢
4. I like Christmas music! I’m not crazy about it but I do like it!
5. Yes I ate really good this year!
6. My favourite Christmas movie is of course Home Alone!!
PS. Love the Santa GIF!!!
Be the best version of you

You never heard of Galaxy Quest? I’m sorry you’ve grown up in a cultural wasteland. It’s classic satire. Hilarious.

Galaxy Quest isn’t a “Christmas Movie.” But it could be.
Because I care, here’s the info at IMDB. Love yourself enough to watch this movie.
