Instagram isn’t real, so stop acting like it…

If I was still in my “airbrush” era, I would have fixed the sweat on my face (bc I feel like I just look greasy). But then I remembered “Alexys, you’re in a gym, it’s okay to sweat. In fact, it’s GOOD that you are because it shows that you’re working hard.” 

If I was still in my “airbrush” era, I would have edited my acne out (bc “ew that’s gross”). But then I remembered “Alexys, it’s okay to have acne. Sure not everyone experiences acne the same way you do (on my chest, shoulders, back, face, & a random one on my tummy like what??🤣), but acne is a NORMAL thing.

So much of Instagram is filtered, that it ends up making us feel self conscious and not good enough. But in reality, that girl/guy doesn’t always look that buff, skinny, and her butt only looks that big when she’s posing & wearing good leggings. That doesn’t even start the conversation around editing your posts… you can edit the lighting, your skin, your clothes, your weight, your height - EVERYTHING these days can be edited. 

So instead of trying to become another “Instagram girl you want to be and look just like”, I want to be just another person on your feed. Sure some people think sweat and acne is gross, but do I care? No. We need to normalize things that ARE NORMAL because if we don’t, it continues to be the bad cycle of comparison, eating disorders, and so much more that social media causes these days.

To be transparent, I DID edit the lighting on these pictures bc I want my Instagram to start having the same style (aka the tone & “vibe” my posts have), so I use the same light room preset I do for all of my other posts. Other than that, I’m raw and real. If you don’t like that, that’s OKAY - there’s an unfollow button for a reason. 

But for those that have been craving “influencers” real lives, and not just some fake one, welcome to “buffbeliever”!❤️

Ps: You are beautiful the way God designed you to be and it’s actually SO cool how God created us that way - each fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalms 139:14)

🚨4-Week Cut Completed

Happy to say that my mini-cut is over. On vacation this month and really wanted to squeeze this cut in and see what I could do. Been a while since I’ve done this, so I opted to just aim for losing 1 lb/week, which I think worked pretty well for me. 

I was eating roughly 2300 calories/day and hitting core/cardio 2-3x a week. I’ll go into more depth a little later on, but just wanted to post the progress. 

Beginning Weight (05/31): 160 lb
Final Weight (07/01): 155 lb 

Hope everyone’s summer is going well 🤞🏼❤️
