A Little Hello

Well! It’s been a long journey on this road to helping others discover the joys of health and fitness. It all started with a self-run blog, which has been blossoming wonderfully for three awesome years now! Upon wanting others to uncover the magic of health, I decided to assemble a team and jump right into the Magazine industry. Wow, what a risk! A lot of hard work went into this magazine with help from our totally perf writers and editors. I would have never imagined we’d come this far.

It has always been a dream of mine to be the editor of a magazine (with heavy influence from 13 Going On 30, of course) and with the love and support from friends, family and lovely followers this dream is finally coming true.

It’s a phenomenal feeling to see how far Downtownn has come. Though we have a long way to go, we hope you’ll stick around for the ride! :) KELSEY TUCKER HEAD EDITOR //@ DOWNTOWNN.TUMBLR.COM

#NO MORE DIETS. EVER. The greatest results and the

perfect diet. How does that sound?

I truly hope that you won’t be too angry with me, because in a sense you are still dieting, and if you follow my simple advice carefully you will produce beyond phenomenal results. But I’m going to let you know now, this diet does take an investment of time and money. But it’s well worth it! You will not be restricting calories, starving, or exercising 6 hours a day. In fact, you’ll lose weight, be healthy and eat plenty of delicious and savory foods-and the results will last much longer than any “8 day diet”. In a world like today’s you may ask, “how is that so?” considering most diets that people claim to “work” include heavy cardio and little eating. I promise you, there will be no misery. The very best (and last) diet you will ever follow through with is on the page right next to this one. For future thank you’s and praiseyou are very welcome!

THE TRICK

Looking for healthy weight loss? Aim for a shed of 1-2lbs

Healthy dieting has absolutely nothing to do with beind unrealistically thin. It’s about feeling great, being energized and changing your lifestyle as a whole. Fad diets don’t work in long-term time frames because they are short-term fixes. To change for good, you must focus on the future, instead of today and tomorrow.

per week. (A pound of fat is roughly 3,500 calories, so subtract 500 from your suggested intake. 500 x 7 days a week = 3,500 calories or 1 pound). Not only is there a higher chance of success with slower weight loss, but is also allows your body to adjust to your new habits, and prevent sagging and loose skin.

BEING FIT 5EVER!

•Alter your lifestyle, not just your looks. The inside reflects the outside!

•Stop looking for quick fixes!

•Don’t focus on the scale.

•Track your progress.

•Practice “slow and steady.”

•Change your habits progressively over time, intead of all at once.

“ What’s wrong with extreme dieting and hard-core fitness plans is that they don’t take into account the rest of your life.” -Alison sweeney 9

natural sugars are absorbed and later released as energy by the body. Starch and natural sugars are fuel for active muscles as well. Carbs are found in milk, fruits and starchy veggies such as sweet potatoes.

PROTEINS - Protein is great for healthy nails, skin and blood as well as many other things, including

muscles and cartilage. It helps build and repair tissues in the body and produces both enzymes and hormones. Protein shakes, made with fruit, milk, ice and protein powder, are a pretty good idea.

FATS - You need fats in your body to keep it running! Eating fats in your breakfast have actually been

proven to keep your metabolism moving. There aren’t many healthy fats that you can consume for breakfast, but almonds and almond butter as well as peanut butter, avocados, and flax seeds are some ideas.

WHAT FOODS SHOULD I BE EATING IN THE A.M. ? KEEPING YOUR HEALTHY! TEA/COFFEE

Herbal teas and black coffee wake us up. Instead of finding your energy in sugary foods and drinks, try having a warm brew in the morning. Though it is normal to have coffee in the morning for a boost, the caffeine will not last as long as a natural sugar’s energy would.

WHOLE GRAINS

Steel cut oatmeal, whole grain bagels or English muffins, and granola are yummy examples of grains that are eaten in the morning (and even throughout the day).

Whole grains rather than refined grains have a number of benefits, often more apparent in those who consume them at least three times daily. Whole grains prevent diabetes and hypertension, and even certain cancers.

PROTEIN

EGGS

Scrambeled, poached, over hard or omelette-style, eggs provide an abundance of antioxidants. Eggs jump-start your brain and also provide essential nutrients and protein.

FRUIT

It’s no secret that fruit is part of a healthy diet. Fruit is a great breakfast item because provides a longer source of energy, as opposed to caffiene (like coffee). Some fruits that are high in water content, such as melons, help you stay full longer and aid in the weight loss process.

Having protein in the morning inhances the signals your brain sends to your body, which helps you wake up. Protein plus carbs will make you stay full longer, fighting off starvation and keeping you comfortable until lunch. Be careful, as extra protein is stored as fat. It is not wise to consume more than your body can use. 35% of your diet should be protein, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Focus on proteins with lower fats, such as turkey, chicken, nuts and beans. Save the bacon for every once in a while!

STORYOFTHEBAND

GET INSPIRED

image-odysseas@FLICKR

Let’s face it. Life gets a little hectic (a lot) and every once in a while, we need a break from reality. You may not be able to leave your hometown right now, and that is alright. After a long week, a tiring day or a heavy moment of stress, try to give yourself some time off. Seriously. Breathe, relax and most importantly-escape.

FINDING INSPIRATION Sometimes we get lost. And I mean that in the sense that we get so wrapped up in school, work and home life that we may forget who we are and what we like. It becomes substantially confusing and frustrating, and you’ll find you’ve become this dull, gray-minded version of what you used to be.

This comes from a lack of inspiration. We lose our inspiration once our plate is loaded with unnessecary assets. It’s time to clean your plate, and get another serving.

SUPPLIES Go out and buy a few poster boards. Grab some colorful pens, markers, and fabrics-whatever you fancy. Even throw in some glitter.

Have a stack of your favorite magazines ready, and if you want to keep them neat, I suggest printing images that inspire you instead. You’ll need glue and scissors as well-and maybe some friends to chat with, if you’re the social type. Throw on a Spotify station that you like, and get ready to cut, glue and create.

LOS ANGELES,

CALIFORNIA

@auroramohn.blogg.no It’s true what they

say, it’s never dull in L.A. Whether you’re looking to max our your credit card on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, or simply there to skate the artsy sidewalks of Venice Beach, Los Angeles has a little bit of everything for everyone. You don’t have to be an A-lister to enjoy what this wonderful city has to offer. With nearly a million things to do and try, it’s definitely a place worth loving-even if you don’t live there.

think BOLD!

FLEURISH • S/S 2013

Bring it home

Think cool, classy and bold.

Black, gray, blues and oranges are the colors that come to mind when L.A. is mentioned. To bring Los Angeles into your lifestyle, never be afraid to experiment. Be sleek and also very outgoing, as L.A. is a city where personality is as big as the houses.

For a more laid-back “Santa Monica” vibe, be creative and artistic. Decorate your room or vision board with peices of funky art in a variety of colors. Bright, vibrant, eye-catching colors and patterns are what the boho vibe of Venice is about. Use the right side of your brain strongly and be a walking peice of art.

The main color white makes the colors turquoise, green and hot magenta seriously pop.

These are common colors that are found in Santorini. Interestingly, the color white is associated with purity as bright blue is linked to inner peace and truth. It’s safe to say you can find both of those here.

Flowy curtains, striking contrast combinations and pottery will bring you close to Santoini.

Statues are quite common, and if you can’t make your own, there are many places where you can buy a terracotta-colored pot. Plant something pink inside of it to give it an extra boost. Pictures of the ocean, a clean room with an open window, and plenty of plants will also do.

Santorini is a dream

destination of it’s own.

With crisp white architexture against the calm blues of the sky and sea, you would have never thought that it was created by the force of a violent volcanic eruption.

Formerly one island, it rests on the steep cliffs of a caldera created by the large explosion. The beautiful capital, Fira, sticks to the top of the cliff looking down on the gorgeous lagoon. It’s somewhere we all long to experience.

Think in rosy hues to get closer to Paris. Reds and pinks against basics like black, white, and gray create the perfect color scheme to reflect this mysterious and sensual place.

Simplicity, minimalism, and love will become your favorite words while trying to channel your inner French romance novel character. Stock up on classic films and always keep fresh red roses nearby. For added flair, purchase a ministatue or jewelry stand that resembles the Eiffel Tower. And never, ever forget the floral candles.

YOUR VISIONS&

Is there a place that

calls your name? Do you want to be an actress or a marine biologist? Ask yourself what you truly want out of life. Think hard, and gather information. What thoughts make you smile, and which thoughts fire you up?

think YOU!

FLEURISH • S/S 2013

Bring it home

Gather images, text, typography, fabrics-anything that inspires you and speaks to you. (This includes pictures of One Direction and other things that make you squealI don’t judge!)

Cut and paste these things to your vision board in a way that catches your eye. The most important thing may be more in the middle, as a long term goal may float to the left or right corner. Things you really, truly, seriously want should be emphasized, possibly by a fancy border or loud, expressive patterns.

Go nuts! It’s your board, it should reflect what your heart desires.

WITH FRIENDS

It’s always better with friends!

Let your friends know what your goals are. They may want to start their own journey, or have tips to help you!

WITH YOUR FAM

SOMEONE ELSE’S BODY IS THEIRS!

Eating well is easier when your whole family is involved. Talk to your family about changing some habits, and work with them to get a plan. It’s so encouraging when those close to you are involved.

We spend way too much time gawking at models and people who have our image of an ideal body. Don’t do this anymore! Finding motivation in the body of someone else is no help simply because their body is theirs, not yours. No matter how hard you try, you will not have the exact same body as someone else. It’s ridicuous to try! Find motivation in your own body by looking in the mirror. You’re pretty stunning!

THINK LONG-TERM

Short term goals are “quick fixes” and that is exactly how long they will last! Instead of losing weight just for the summer or getting fitter to fit into this dress, change your lifestyle completely.

STAY ORGANIZED

There’s no better way to keep track of your fitness goals than to stay organized.

Keep a planner or log your daily meals and exercises on an app such as myfitnesspal.

26

FLEURISH • S/S 2013

KEEP TRACK OF PROGRESS

You may not think you’ve come far, but think again.

Take a picture of yourself in workout gear once a week, preferably on the same day.

Keep track of your weight on those days, and compare each “before” to your “after”. So you see how far you’ve come? That will help you go further, and keep you motivated.

REWARD YOURSELF

This is the best part about progress! Allow yourself gifts when you reach a set goal, such as a manicure after losing 10 pounds or new pants after shedding 3 inches off of your waist. Get creative and challenge yourself! Set goals for things you haven’t done before, like plank for a full minute properly or go for a successful jog without stopping. You reach goals more frequently when there is something to look forward to.

COMPLIMENTS

GO SHOPPING

In case you’ve forgotten, you are a marvelous person. Let yourself know that! Don’t work hard for compliments from other people, even if they are flattering. The best compliments come from yourself!

What better way to stay motivated than to buy a shirt or a dress in a smaller size? In a scenario like this, you’d see the shirt and the gears in your brain would instantly put two and two together.

REMINDERS

“Just do it” should become your mantra; know it well and practice it often. Keep reminding yourself what all of this was for. Place sticky notes all over, make a vision board and put motivational pictures where you can see them.
