A day designed to be all about fitness.

4 Educational Workshops

Healthy and Fit: A dietitian will advise the foods necessary to lead a healthy lifestyle. The dietician will also give nutritional facts about common foods that are consumed.

Meal Prepping: Meal preps save a bunch of time and assist in preventing an individual from eating “bad” throughout the week. Learn how to prep and plan meals in advance, and learn a few new recipes.

Juices/Smoothies: Juices and Smoothies are both great ways to include a lot of produce in our diet, and also to consume a greater variety than we may otherwise eat. Learn the difference between them both and their benefits.

Healthy and Hanging Out: Hanging out with friends the conventional way can be one of the many reasons someone is putting on the pounds especially around the waistline, but it does not have to be. Learn how to stay social and stay fit!
4 Workout Classes

Butts and Guts: Have you always wanted a flatter stomach? A firmer butt? In this class you will firm and tighten your midsection and backside!

Step Aerobics: High Energy Toning and Cardio Class via an elevated platform (step board)!

Sweat with Dawn Estelle Archer: Therapy! A positive and enjoyable dance experience and group training.

Tabata Total Body with GetFitWithCruz: Tabata formula has scientifically proven to increase your endurance and athletic performance, decrease your body fat, and increase your metabolism! Combines 20-second intervals of high intensity exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest.

Determined2Satisfied100! Challenge Yourself! #D2S100

I'm committing to working out 100 Days in a row!


Don't worry you can still take a well-deserved rest day. After all, a day off allows your muscles to recover, rebuild, and become stronger. But rest days don't just mean sitting on the couch and doing nothing. 


During the challenge we will take ACTIVE REST DAYS! Examples: Stretch, yoga, light cardio,brisk walk,short hike,dance. Every day doesn't have to be an intense workout day. The point of the challenge is to get the body moving everyday.

Challenge Rules: Your challenging yourself to workout 100 days in a row, so if you miss a day you have to start over again (Be HONEST w/yourself). I'm starting on 2/09/15 but you can join late, just post what day your on and don't forget to #D2S100
I will document my 100 days via Instagram & YouTube!
Wake up with Determination, go to bed with Satisfaction! 

I WILL get in these jeans! Size 5
The scale isn't the only way to measure progress, find a pair of jean or shorts that are too small and take a picture in them. I have them hung-up on my wall and this picture is my lock screen on my phone #Determined2getinthesejeans so I can see your goal jeans/shorts!

NON Scale Victory! Changing my Blog Description! New Direction!

Old Blog Description: 

Follow me on my journey of becoming FIT!         


It started off about wanting to lose 100 pounds before I graduated with my MBA but its so much more than that.  I've learned the only way to be successful losing weight is to make it a LIFESTYLE change, no crazy DIETS just eating better, working out and staying motivated. It took me a long time and many failed attempts but I'm more determined than ever and enjoying this journey.


 12.11.14 WOW a year already!!



Felt like I wrote that a long time ago, fast forward to December 19th, 2014. It's Friday night and I'm up watching Bad Grandpa with Gregory (Omg this movie lmao); Izaiah is spending the night at Gregory's parents house. I finished my last class on Tuesday, so that means I'm officially finished with Graduate school, so HAPPY I don't have to wake up tomorrow morning for an 8am class :)! 

This year has been one of the hardest but most rewarding years of my life; documenting my journey and making my lifestyle change a priority made 2014 an unforgettable year. I am committed to living a healthy lifestyle and will never go back #speakitintoexistence!


I participated in different challenges on Instagram, found recipes, friends, motivational quotes, different things to help keep me motivated. I participated in about 8 different races, as I type that it still feels crazy to say. November 2013 my response to being asked to participate in a Turkey Trot was "You want me to pay someone, to wakeup early, on Thanksgiving to run 3.1 miles? Are you crazy? November 2014 I particpate in a 5k Turkey Trot on the Saturday before Thanksgving and a 5 mile Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day. Its so crazy how much can change when you change the way you think.

I thought losing weight was IMPOSSIBLE, I thought I was meant to be big. On December 11th, 2013 I told my myself I wasn't meant to be big and it was POSSIBLE. It's of looking at losing weight as a negative, I went into happy to start my journey. I started off making small changes and just focusing on being consistent. I've learned you don't have to be extreme to lose the weight, you can still live your life and reach your goals.

You have to get your mind right before anything. I was inspired by others on Instagram and YouTube and never imagined a year later, people would be saying how I inspired them. I am so committed to this lifestyle and I want others to know if I can do it, SO CAN YOU. Losing weight isn't impossible, you have to stop making excuses and tell yourself you can do it. You don't have to be perfect, 80/20! Lifestyle change, diets don't work!
