It’s that time of the year again, and everyone knows what I’m talking about. It’s time to tone down the candies and sweets and tone up our bodies for Spring Break.

There's something about warm weather and a beach that gives girls the extra motivation they need to try and look like Candace Swanepoel in just a few short weeks.

Just when you thought people were slowly giving up on their New Year's Resolutions of being fit and healthy, SB sneaks up on everyone and the countdown to rock hard abs begins.

But, let's be real here. It’s not as easy as it looks. There are many phases and stages you go through to obtain your “Spring Break Bod” and Gossip Girl knows exactly what they are.

You say you’re going to give up on alcohol to cut down the calories, but you always end up drinking.

You talk about how great your body is going to look in your new bikini... while you’re eating a bowl of ice-cream.

Your friends don’t stop you from ordering the biggest meal on the menu when you’re supposed to be dieting.

You try to tell yourself pizza tastes gross so you won’t get any cravings, but deep down inside you know how much you like it.

You said you were going to the gym today, but all of the sudden have more important things to do.

When you still haven’t worked off the Freshman 15 and your friends tell you that losing that much weight before SB is impossible.

What your friend says when you tell them you had to stop running on the treadmill mid-workout because your legs felt like Jell-O.

After days of eating healthy, you turn into some kind of sugar-deprived monster.

When you finally realize you can’t go another day eating a salad for every meal.

You realize you miss your old eating habits and aren’t afraid to hide it anymore.

And what's the first thing you'll do when you finally make it to your Spring Break destination? Order pizza.

Will you go through these same things as you prepare for Spring Break this year? We’ll find out soon.

XOXO.
