Getting Back Into Shape According To New Girl

In college, it's easy to lose yourself in your studies and social life, ignoring all your physical needs of going to the gym and eating healthy. But there comes a point when you get tired of feeling endlessly tired and food that once tasted so heavenly doesn't seem to have the same effect anymore. Your body begins to crave a change. So, if you're smart, you listen to that craving and decide to get your butt back to the gym and move your grocery cart away from the sweets aisle. Sounds easy enough, right? Not entirely. There's definitely a rough transition process.

1. You try to ignore the signs that you need to get back into shape ASAP.

2. But you decide to workout for an hour and then you feel like you already lost 20 pounds.

3. But then you get on the scale and see that somehow you actually gained weight.

4. And the hunger that you experience after your workout makes you feel like a wild animal searching for prey.

5. In the beginning, your transition is almost comical.

6. You decide to follow a ton of fitness pages on Instagram for inspiration.

7. Then you realize that you are nothing like the professionals who work out for a living and you begin to lose all hope in yourself.

8. And after you follow the workouts that you find on social media, your body feels like a rubber band.

9. But slowly, you start to see yourself improving in the gym and the kitchen.

10. And nothing can beat when you meet your weekly goal and feel unstoppable.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
