So, I decided to read a little today...go figure (lol)! While reading I came accross a few sites, blogs, vlogs and FB pages that dedicated their energies to African American women and fitness. I can honestly say as an African American woman I had always been fit, healthy and toned. That is until I had my children. BUT I can't be one who blames my chunky-ness on my children. Instead, I take ownership for each and every pound that I have gained. But back to the subject, it was said that AA women are not the most fit people on the Earth. Do you agree? Ummmmm, no! Not I. It is statistically proven that Americans (as a whole) are chunky-bunky's. Look at the portion sizes that we get when visiting all of these popular fast food chains.
I had a first hand experience when my husband and I went to Zurich. I swear I starved for most of the time we were there jk. The food portions were MUCH smaller than that of which we are fed in America and it sucked for the first portion of my trip but after about 3 days I was GUUD! lol. I just want to encourage you all to eat smaller & healthier portions so we can shut these people up! This blog was intentionally written to bring a little awareness to "us" women and to American's as a whole.
Happiness & Health!
