All Things Kiana

At this point, I’m making cakes every week. I haven’t started charging people because I’m still in practice mode and I want to get things in order but I got a lot of compliments on this cake. I started over multiple times so for people to love it, I’m truly grateful!

Today was one of those days where I felt horrible and just wanted to stay in bed. But I promised myself I’d show up, so I did. Went to Weight Watchers , skipped the scale because the bloating is CRAZY right now, but the commitment is still 100% there.

Then came Zumba. At first, I thought nobody was going to show up. But then one student walked through that door. I gave her the choice, we could call it or dance, and she didn’t hesitate: “Let’s dance.” So we busted our moves! 💃🏽

Reminder to any fitness instructor who needs to hear this today: empty spots or low numbers will NEVER diminish your worth as an instructor. Your value isn’t measured by a head count. Showing up for even one person makes an impact, and showing up for yourself matters even more.

Also, I’m still not feeling 100%, but I’m still in the fight.

What’s one small win you gave yourself today when you really didn’t feel like pushing through? Drop it below! 👇🏾

You have 10 minutes? Cool? 40 but you need to split it up? That’s cool too. 🤷🏾‍♀️As long as you get your workout in and move your body, that’s what counts. 💪🏾Just do something!

I ain’t been feeling it! 🤷🏾‍♀️.

My mood has been a little heavy, and honestly, Wednesdays are usually my rest days anyway, so I let myself off the hook.

Wednesday was all about rest but I still tracked and ate within my points/calories. 🏆I started the day with a proffee, had spaghetti with veggies for lunch, and went with jerk chicken tacos, rice, and broccoli for dinner. Grabbed a pastry crisp for a quick snack, and ended the night with a Truly Unruly.

I’m praying for better days ahead, but right now I just need a little space to sit in my feelings before I reset and move forward. And that’s completely okay. I honoring my feelings and letting them be…

How do you give yourself grace on the days you’re just not feeling like your usual self? Let’s talk in the comments.

Last week it was the wildfire smoke. This week, rain ☔️ Not only that, the rain tried to ruin my quest towards 10k steps twice today. Morning walk? Rained out. Post-dinner walk? Rained out again.

I almost took a rest day, but I decided to compromise and threw on a YouTube indoor walk instead and I have 0 regrets. 💪🏾

Didn’t quite hit 10k steps, but I got pretty close, and showing up anyway felt like a win to me. We try again tomorrow!‼️

How do you get your steps in when the weather completely throws off your plans?

She’s got a great personality. 🎂🙃

Spent the weekend in the kitchen attempting a cake that... let’s just say did not make it to the vision board. I hit pretty much every bump in the road imaginable, and by the time I realized where I went wrong, it was way too late to fix it. It definitely wasn’t pretty!

But honestly? It was such a good reminder that life works the exact same way. We mess up, things don’t go according to the recipe, and the final result isn’t always picture-perfect.

All we can do is pivot, learn, give ourselves a little grace, and keep going. (And remember that messy cake still tastes sweet!)

Drop a 🍰 in the comments if you’ve ever had a baking fail, or tell me: how do you give yourself grace when things don’t go as planned? 👇🏾

Hey Yall hey! Spend the morning with me.

I woke up today with every intention of walking for an hour, but that wildfire smoke was way too thick and dangerous. ‼️Safety first, so I headed right back home to pivot.

First up was fuel. I have been craving the Chick fil A hashbrown bowl like crazy lately, so I decided to recreate a healthier version right in my own kitchen. It was absolutely delicious and hit the spot.🎯

Once breakfast settled, it was time to sweat. I did the Beyonce workout by Fit and Fab Crew and let me tell you, it was amazing. The energy was completely unmatched.

To wrap up a solid morning, I tracked all my food and got super close to my 10k step goal. We do not let a change of plans ruin our progress.
