I still need you to keep coming forward with your fit tips. I’m squirreling them away for a rainy day and I want as many as I can get. Please.
Today’s fit tip?
What does that mean? It means: assume you are going to meet your goals. Know you are going to meet your goals. Don’t set yourself up with even an ounce of self-doubt. You can do it, you know you can. Don’t let yourself think even for a second, that you aren’t going to accomplish what you’ve set out to do.
If that means you need to tape little reminders all over your life, so be it. I have a magnet on my fridge that reminds me to be active. I cut out a picture from a fitness magazine to help me remember what I want to do. It’s a photo of a woman running her heart out, mid-stride. I mod podged her, glued her onto a magnet, and put her on my fridge. She helps me remember that I really can do it. And so can you.

Hello there! I'm Allison Czarnecki, founder + editor of Petit Elefant, a blog all about style on a budget for every part of your life: style / home / travel / family. I do a lot of how-to beauty + style tutorials, travel posts, easy recipes, home remodel projects, and cool DIY crafts you totally want to try. I'm super happily married (to a hot Polish immigrant) and am the mother of two kids, a daughter and son, all of whom are featured here on the regular. We live in the country but we're a little bit rock + roll. Welcome!
Very early mornings are usually my only chance to get in some concentrated exercise. It’s hard to get out of bed after that 5 am feeding for baby, but it helps to lay out me exercise gear at night: shoes, socks, industrial strength foundation garment, ipod, etc. in a neat stack next to the bed so I don’t have to fumble around wasting time. I’m not always successful, but it really does help.
