A Different Angle

I’ve been experiencing a mixed bag of reactions and responses to last weeks blog post where I posted two side profile pics for the sole purpose of demonstrating a reduced inflammation in my abdominal region. I have been called emaciated and unhealthy looking and a promoter of “thin is in”. I’m posting two “before and after” front view pictures, the second taken last weekend, in order to prove that I am in no way emaciated, starved or unhealthy. I am fit and well nourished and my life and career are based on health and exercise.

I promote health and health comes in many shapes and forms but carries one common thread, leading an active life and eating nourishing foods. Health “looks” like the above photo for my personal physical goals. That does not mean health has to “look” like that for everyone else nor have I ever stated that. Every woman has their own vision of health and I only encourage that their lives include a healthy dose of activity and an abundance of foods that nourish their bodies.

I’d like to also clarify that in no way do I benefit from people cutting gluten and dairy out of their diets nor do I ever promote Booty Camp as the only exercise solution through my blog. I do however run challenges from time to time for recruits.

My blog is meant to be a resource for ladies to learn about health and fitness and gain a sometimes new perspective on things that they may be able to do to improve their health. In this effort I have always been completely transparent and that is who I choose to be as a fitness professional.

Always living with passion,

Sammie
