  1. been struggling to lose belly fat ! I love food ! But I’m doing so much better than before! It’s very stubborn but so am I ! 😜🥴 I’ve told myself that I’ll stop procrastinating & eating bad food ! Cause I definitely don’t want a big tummy NEVA THAT !!! I only do two days of ab workouts 3 sets each in a week ! You honestly don’t have to do too much ! less is more ! Don’t overdo it ! With a balanced diet you’ll definitely see results ! You just need discipline and dedication & determination okuuuuurrrrrr !!! . . . . . . . . #losingbellyfat #fitfamily #belly #abworkouts #fitnessmotivation #fitnessmodel #healthydiet #healthyfoodie #livinghealthy #homeworkouts #workoutsforyou #explorepageready

  2. Moving diaries part five 🏡✨ This move was absolutely chaotic and so stressful, and the hardest part was saying goodbye to our amazing house keeper who we truly loved and adored 💔 It was such an emotional moment for us. Somehow we managed to get the house unpacked in just two days, and even though there’s still a lot to do (like mirrors and little touches on the walls), it’s already starting to feel like home 🤍 - Oil dispensers @takealotcom - Tv unit @coal.interiors - Coffee table @decofurnsa #movingdiaries #newhomejourney #chaoticmove #emotionalmoments #goodbyesarehard #newbeginnings #makingahouseahome #homeinspo #homestyle #unpackingday #movinghouse #lifestylecreator #contentcreatorlife #ballitoliving #chloesdiaries
