About Me

Hi! I’m Brynn. I call DC home, but travel often for work so I’ve taken my passion for wellness on the road. I’m always searching for ways to stay healthy while embedded in this crazy, fast-paced, often challenging lifestyle.

tbh i’ve been having a ton of body image issues lately. i have some short term (dress for a ldw wedding) and long term (fat loss / happiness) goals, but i’ve been in a vicious cycle of body hatred and binge eating. neither of these are healthy, and neither of these support my goals. and yet, here we are. . . it was nice to put on this new @loft dress and feel decent in it this morning as i got ready for work. . . . it’s so hard to be confident in one’s body in today’s world, and i’m probably the last person to talk to about #bodypositivity , but sometimes it’s nice to wake up and feel good about yourself, ya know? . . long story short, continuing to work on my appearance while also not hating myself currently. it clearly doesn’t help me. . . do you ever feel this way? what helps you overcome binge eating / mood swings? . . #navigatingwellness #fatlossjourney #wellnessjourney #weightlossjourney #bodyimage #fitness #fitnessmotivation #selfie #officeselfie #selfieboomerang #bingeeating #moodswings #emotionaleating

when mom takes candid pictures and you don’t COMPLETELY hate them #miracleshappen 😂 . . i was super moody this weekend at the beach. went way off my diet, felt bloated and gross and had a lot of feelings about my body. summer is always hard for me, and it tends to make me indulge instead of clean up my diet, which obviously makes me feel worse. . . . it’s definitely a process, and I know i need to be patient, but i also need to learn how to listen to what my body needs and wants, not just eat and drink whatever is in front of me 🍷🍹🍰🍔🍇🥩🧀🍫 . . getting back on the wagon this week. ya girl has some goals! but also trying not to be so angry at myself because it only makes it worse! . . . gotta forgive yourself and get back to it, ya know? it’s a v hard, frustrating, ugly yet awesome journey. . . #navigatingwellness #bingeeating #beachweekend #weekendeating #bodytransformation #weightloss #fatloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosswoes #fitnessjourney #summerbodyinprogress #foodissues

i’ve worn this @lillypulitzer outfit once before. both times i consciously looked down at my gut. i constantly held something in front of me to make sure no one looked at my stomach. 😱 . . it’s a big step for me to wear crops or to try to wear bikinis 👙 (or any bathing suit really). it’s super scary and i judge myself the whole time. . . i’m extremely mean to myself daily. and i’m trying to work on being nicer while still having goals. i’m trying to take some risks in my appearance and trying to be okay with what i see in the mirror. . . dressed up in heels and makeup, straight hair and cute accessories, i liked the look. but only at certain angles. . . in this pic you can see a little gut going on. i didn’t do fancy angles to get the thinnest look, but also, i’m 120% sure i’m sucking in my stomach. but that’s ok. it’s progress. progress on the body i want, and progress in not hating my appearance in the body i have. . . lookout for a new *~vulnerable~* blog post soon on the tough road to body acceptance (of which i’ve barely left the starting line) and the idea that acceptance doesn’t mean “giving up” based on the @paigesmathersrd podcast, #nutritionmatters with guest @dietitiananna ❤️ . . #navigatingwellness #croptop #bodyacceptancejourney #selfie #nutrition #wellness #fitness #bodyimage #vulnerability

over indulged a bit this weekend, and could NOT get myself to workout saturday or yesterday 😬😬 . . it felt great to go on a 15 mile bike ride with my mom today. nothing crazy, or too fast, or overly sweaty, but great nonetheless. love getting to spend quality mother daughter time while doing something healthy 👯‍♀️🚴🏻‍♀️🇺🇸🌺🌿 @druriani ❤️ . . #navigatingwellness #memorialdayweekend #mdw #biking #floraandfauna #buckscounty #canalride #pennsylvania #pa #motherdaughtertime
