GYM TIME!!!! Getting in the gym first thing in the morning really puts me in the best mood. A lot of clinical research proved that the releasing of endorphins during a workout, improves mood swings and defeats depression. I absolutely love starting my day off in a positive way. So today I stayed some #ShouldersAndAbs and finally got a chance to brunch with @taybecc • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #Vines #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #LegS #KillThoseHams #BootyDay #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Getoutside #Motivation #OutdoorWorkouts #planetfitness (at Planet Fitness)

Just one week can make such a. Big difference. This week I’ve been lucky enough to do something I LOVE... workout & learn all about fitness/nutrition. As a result, I’ve pushed myself harder than usual to reach my goals and implement the lessons I’ve learned. Killing each day with 2 workouts a day to maximize my time and my workout results. It’s been more fun than struggle and I hope that’s the same with you all. Enjoy what you’re doing, love the work you put in and watch your results bloom 🌸 🌺 🌹. Never forget my friends, your body is your temple fuel it and treat it as though it should last FOREVER. #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #AfroVegansOfHamptonRoads #VegansOfGhent #LoveWhatYouDo #GroupFitness #PersonalTraining #Noffs #NavyTraining #FEP (at Norfolk, Virginia)

What are your goals for 2K18? I am the furthest thing from being a morning person, but I want to reach my goals so badly I can��t sleep anyway. This year I want to finally find the cause of my eczema, have an actually flat stomach & clear my skin completely. If that means I have to wake up early everyday to hit the gym hard or make every single meal I eat from scratch, then I’ll do that. Dedication and motivation are not easy, but HOW BADLY DO YOU REALLY WANT IT?! I’ve made excuses for myself, we all have, but it’s time to cut the bull and keep it real. This year we’re going to achieve our goals. This year our “dreams” will be a reality. Keep that positivity flowing and stay focused my friends. We got this!!!! #HappyBelly2k18• • • • • • • • • • • #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #happyBelly2K18 #Gym #Focused #StayMotivated #Eczema #Medicine #NaturalRemedies #Fitness #Motivation #VeganGains #VacationWorkouts #WeAreATeam

Well, here we go again. Tomorrow is the first day of another two week underway, but this time I’m READY. I created a dope workout schedule and a delicious meal plan to keep me on track with my weight loss journey. It goes a little something like this: 🥦🥦🥦🥦 Breakfast: oatmeal w. Apples 🍎, dates & cinnamon 🥦🥦🥦🥦 Lunch: kale salad w. Tomato basil dressing, sprouts, & brown rice ( and any other veggies I can get my hands on) w/ an ACV drink 🥦🥦🥦🥦 Dinner: kale salad w. Tomato basil dressing, sprouts, & brown rice ( and any other veggies I can get my hands on) w/ an ACV drink 🥦🥦🥦🥦 Snacks: either some apple w. Almond butter OR a protein shake OR dark chocolate trail mix 🥦🥦🥦🥦 It always costs me a little extra out of pocket, but I feel so much better eating real Whole Foods than ship 🚢 BS. So wish me luck on my journey friends and stay amazing!!! #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #AfroVegansOfHamptonRoads #VegansOfGhent #LoveWhatYouDo #GroupFitness #PersonalTraining #Noffs #NavyTraining #CVn77 #CarrierLife #StrikeGroupTwo #USSGHWB #electronicsTechnician #ThirdClass (at Ghent (Norfolk))

Happy World Health Day!!!! What does it mean to you to be healthy?! As time goes on, my definition changes. I no longer look to these picture peferect people as my ideal for health. I focus on what’s happening on the inside as much as the outside. It’s important to be conscious/aware of what we do to our bodies. Your body is your temple. Take care of it from the inside out. Love YAS and stay healthy my friends!! #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #WorldHealthDay #InsideOut #HappyBelly2K18

Day 1: I killed it in the GYM. Today was arms & abs day and I know I’m DEFINITELY going to feel it tomorrow As far as food goes, it’s been tough. No processed foods & no gluten all for the #eczema. IT SUCKS, but I’m excited for the challenge. Stay strong my friends, I’m with ya on this journey! #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #Vines #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #FitGirls #FitFemale #Running #Planetfitness #Cardio #VeganCardio # (at Planet Fitness)

Getting outside doesn’t have to be such a bad thing. You need to love yourself enough to want to get out there and do something good for yourself & your body. Get off your couch, stop binge watching Netflix & do something good for you because................ IF YOU DON’T TAKE CARE OF YOU, WHO WILL?! Stay active my friends! • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #Vines #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #FitGirls #FitFemale #Running #OutdoorRunning #Cardio #VeganCardio #ColdRun #mounttrashmore #park #vegangirl #VeganGang #VGang (at Mount Trashmore Park)

After a long hot week of leading these grueling PRT’s (navy physical readiness test), I needed to take a nice cold dip in the pool . 🏊‍♀️ 🏊‍♀️ Because of my plantar fasciitis, I do NOT enjoy running. It hurts and sucks and I just don’t know where the bel we’re going. What am I running for? What am I running from? JUST WHY?! 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♀️ So, instead of running up and down the block on a 90 degree day, I swim my little mermaid heart out. 🧜‍♀️ 🧜‍♀️ There are so many great benefits to swimming: Builds endurance Full body workout Relaxes the mind 🧠 🧠 So get OUTSIDE, train to be a better you and lose the excuses. #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #AfroVegansOfHamptonRoads #VegansOfGhent #LoveWhatYouDo #GroupFitness #PersonalTraining #Noffs #NavyTraining #FEP #getoutside #Swimming #Swim #BreastStroke #Bikini #Pool #cardio #KillerCardio #BackStroke #ChlorineHair # (at Ghent (Norfolk))

Feeling like your best self!!!! This week I have been fortunate enough to take a week off of work to get certified in some group/personal training and I couldn’t be happier. There’s no better feeling than being able to do the things you love. Take time for yourself and do what you want. No one will take better care of you than you, so get out there and do something you give a shit about. To top it off, I finally got a chance to slay these legs with a little fasted cardio & a #KillerCableWorkout. Stay beautiful my friends & love what you do. #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #AfroVegansOfHamptonRoads #VegansOfGhent #LoveWhatYouDo #GroupFitness #PersonalTraining #Noffs #NavyTraining #FEP # (at Norfolk, Virginia)

Today was my second trip to the allergist where I realized that my eczema directly correlates to my weight and my food. I’ve gained a good amount of weight recently and haven’t been feeling myself. My psyche was pretty messed up these last couple of weeks, but my husband @codycickx had the amazing revelation that I really just needed a little Vitamin D. So I went for a run to clear my mind, burn some calories and get some fresh air. Boy did I need to clear my mind. I felt myself sliding back into old mental habits and negative energy creeping up on me. It’s important to recognize those moments and correct the bad thoughts when they hit you. You’re better than you think, stronger than you think and you should believe in that whole heartedly. #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #PositiveVibes #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan #Motivation #OnlyHuman #MistakesHappen #MakeChange #VegansOfHamptonRoads #MomsBirthday #NewYork #BrokeBack #ApartmentHunting (at Naval Station Norfolk)

In a busy day, what’s more important? SLEEP? DIET? Or WORKING OUT?! One of the most challenging things is learning to prioritize diet, working out and sleep on such a limited schedule. Especially when you work a 0700 to 1800 shift and have to be up by 0100 for a 0200-0600 shift the next day. And yes, from 1800 to 0100 is 7 hours, but it’s not much when you have the following: 1. You weren’t planning on going to bed until 2200 so you drank some green tea 2. You still have to shower & that’s IF there happens to be hot water 3. Your equipment that is getting inspected tomorrow is 0% operational & it has to be 100% operational to pass inspection. It is a hell of a process, but trying to figure out whether sticking to your diet is more important than working out or those are more important than sleep has been the biggest hurdle for me & others in my position. Navy or not people struggle with this triad of priorities all the time. • • • • • • • • • • • #LexiLogic #LexiKnowsSo #Positivity #Mentality #PositiveMentality #KeepMovingForward #PosiVibes #Vines #YouAreAmazing #HappyBelly2k18 #Fitness #norfolk #navyvegan #LegS #KillThoseHams #BootyDay #VeganGains #Vegang #vegansailor #plantbasedmilitary #VeganGains #VeganFitness #FitVegan #Vegan (at USS George H.W.
