FIRST YOUTUBE VLOG ❤︎ working out, cleaning, viral TikTok recipe, self care, & more!

Let's go to the gym. I need to go. This is like overstimulating. Cheers! The blueberry crumble, vegetable crumble. Wait, I've never said that before. Hello, you guys. Welcome. First of all, I need to stop looking in that and looking in this. Welcome to my first ever vlog. I literally got this vlog camera on Monday, and then I got hit with what literally felt like the plague. What is up, you guys? Like. We need to do a little introduction. I feel like this is crazy. I'm Kelsey. I'm a women's fitness and nutrition coach and content creator. I'm also just finishing my last year of kinesiology, so I'm still doing summer courses and just trying to get through that right now. But I just love watching YouTube vlogs, so I really wanted to start vlogging. I was just also like a YouTube kid. But you guys, it is Saturday. I am going to the gym for the first time this week, so I'm super excited about that right now. I actually do have 2 gym memberships, so So I was like deciding what gym I want to go to because I go to one for filming and one for just being closer to my house. And I think I'm just gonna go to the closer one today because even though it's my first time working out this week, I lowkey just wanted to be quick. But yeah, I'm so excited. I don't know how long this vlog will be. Like, this is my first time doing it. So if you stick around, I can promise that the editing and the videographing will be better. I am drinking an Alani right now. I think this is my second favorite flavor now. It used to be my favorite flavor. Now Sherbet Squirrel is. The reason why they switched places, little fun fact, is because I thought it'd be a good idea to mix an energy drink with vodka. Not my best idea. But I'm gonna go hit a leg day, and then we have a busy day in terms of just like computer work, work-wise, content-wise. A little chill day, but like still a lot to get done. So I just wanted to bring you guys along. Now that I'm feeling better, let's go to the gym. I just got in my car. I wanted to show you guys my obsession with Alani. And I literally DM them like, can I please like work with you or like get PR? And they're like, not right now, babe. But you guys, I have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Anyways, I need to clean out my car. Just got done in the gym. Now I need to go grocery shopping. And holy cow, you guys, I was on the stairs and it's the first time I've been on the stairs in like a week because I was sick. I sweat so bad. Like, I don't even know why I put on makeup today, but I just needed to like get ready. I'm currently deciding if I want to buy a coffee and then go grocery shopping because like I really don't want to go grocery shopping, but I actually have no No food, or if I should just make one when I get home. I actually think I'm gonna go to Walmart because I actually need like half groceries and half like toiletry stuff. You know how I was gonna wear a jacket? I didn't. And this is how I'm going into Walmart. I got a lot of toiletries, I got a lot of yogurt. Okay guys, it's fairly busy in here and I'm like halfway through my grocery shopping. I feel like everywhere in Canada doesn't have hot honey. Like, I haven't been able to find hot honey and I really want to make those, those like popular bowls with like cottage cheese. And yeah, except I'm gonna use regular potatoes because I don't have sweet potatoes at home. I'm gonna get avocado, and what else am I gonna get? Oh, I'm gonna get lean turkey instead of ground beef. Oh my God, sorry, that's going away. Okay, I need to go. This is like overstimulating right now. I'm back home. I was gonna give you guys a little grocery haul, but I got really overstimulated in the grocery store, and then I got really hangry, so I had to come home. I just made like a little yogurt bowl parfait, and I actually just got done editing a TikTok and I posted that on Instagram, and now I'm making a coffee even though— don't look at the time, it's like 3:30. I know that's like bad, but at the same time it's Saturday night and I still haven't had a coffee today. Not that I'm like doing anything tonight, I actually think I'm like having a chill weekend. This is— I don't know how to pronounce this— Elmhurst? Elmhurst? Elmhurst? Anyways, it's this brand, it's really good natural ingredients. If you live in Canada, it's usually just the oats or just the nuts or just the whatever and salt, and it's great ingredients. I will say I do get the barista one because I do like it a little bit. I think it's a little bit creamier. It only has 5 ingredients, so it's really not bad. Look how gorgeous. Anyways, I want to figure out— actually, I won't be able to vlog for you guys while I do figure this out, but I want to figure out how to transfer over my photos and videos to my computer really quick. I'm gonna be here for like probably a couple minutes and then I'm gonna decide if I actually— then I might do a— the cookie review. I'm excited you guys can join along for that, but I'm doing a little collab on Instagram with this cookie company in Kelowna, so I'm really excited. So you guys, good news-ish, I figured out how to get the photos on and the photos actually are so good, like the quality. My face is questionable. But like this one's good. I don't know; they're like kind of cute. So I'm definitely gonna have to like play around with it. But I don't know how to get the videos on. All you like video people are probably screaming at me right now, being like it's so easy. But I've just been here. There's a first time for everything. Also filming in public today. Like I usually actually don't care, but having this camera, I was like oh shit. But I faced my fears that I didn't know was a fear. I'm gonna finish getting these videos on my computer. Not that I have like a bunch of. Stuff to edit, but just to figure it out. And then either do the cookie review or go for a walk. I kind of want to go for a walk outside just because it is pretty nice. Still have like 5,000 steps to go, but honestly that's like not bad. Like, I feel like I can get that in like 40 minutes. We're gonna make dinner and I think I want to watch Alex Cooper's new documentary. I was FaceTiming my friend yesterday and she said it was really good. And yeah, I've just been here. Yeah, it's kind of gross how I'm still in my bra on my bed. Okay, like, we get it, Kelsey. Sorry, I'm gonna wash my sheets tomorrow anyways. Like, I'm gonna go for a walk in the heat, so why does it make sense for me to shower and then go for a walk in the heat and then shower again? Like, make it make sense, okay? So don't come for me. I'm like so indecisive today. I don't know what I want to do. I'm gonna like figure it out, okay? I'm gonna just like take a minute and be like, what the fuck do you want to do? I just don't know like the order. And like, I gotta put the potatoes in the oven. Oh, time is flying, you guys. It's 4:20. I will not be celebrating. Biggest coffee challenge. It's so— it's so— it's really bad. You ready, guys? Okay, Georgia, she's so funny and cute. Look at her little feet. This is my take on the viral bowl. I hope you guys can still hear me because our air conditioner thing just decided to go on, but I really hope this is good. You know what? I would have put my avocado in here if it was ripe, and I would have had a sweet potato if I had it. But we're working with what we have. Actually, really good news about the hot honey. I ended up making. I told Totally forgot about this sauce that I made for when I had my friends over a little bit ago, and it was just honey, sriracha, and Greek yogurt, and it's literally hot honey. So I just like put it over top. Cheers! All right, wish I did the potatoes smaller for sure. I'm not mad about it. Definitely wish there was avocado though. So far so good, you guys. I'm kind of proud of myself. Oh my God, it's hot. So now I'm just setting up for the cookie review. You guys, look at these freaking cookies! Oh my goodness, look how freaking good! Oh my goodness, Dollhouse Bakery is her brand and she's here local in Kelowna. If you guys live in the Okanagan area, literally the Crumbl cookies of Kelowna, okay? But like honestly probably better. I'm gonna— you guys can get a little behind the scenes I need to cut them first. Oh, don't tell anyone, you guys. Dollhouse just sent me another box of their cookies to review, and I'm so freaking excited. Look at these flavors. That looks amazing. Obviously that's the number 1 right now. Was that my favorite one last time? The blueberry crumble at the base of the cookie, and that's what I'm like tasting throughout all the cookies. Funfetti going in number 2. I really like a sugar cookie. You guys, these are the Poppies I was talking about, the Raspberry Rose. I've never tried this flavor before. Oh my God, it's pink! That's adorable. It's good, but I nothing beats a Diet Coke. You know what I mean? But after all those cookies, I'm like I should probably opt for a little little something lighter on my stomach than a Diet Coke. So back from the gym. Actually, let me give you a little OOTD or a little gym OOTD. So this bra, you guys, literally gives you a forty dollar boob job. I'm not even kidding. It's The Define Origin bra. I think I wear a size medium in the bra. My leggings, these are just Honor Active. What are they called? These are the Effortless leggings. I think they're in the color sand and size small, but I get long. And then this little zippy is just from TNA or like Aritzia or whatever. I also think I want to have my electrolytes right now. I love having a fun drink, if you guys couldn't tell. I love the Fun Drink a little too much. Okay, we don't need to chug that, Kelsey. Good morning, you guys! Happy Monday! 10 AM now. I had the ultimate reset last night, as you saw. Clean everything. I just— I love, I love cleaning on Sundays. And it might seem like a daunting task to do, but I just remember every time I do it, I feel so much better going into the week. So I'm really, really glad that I cleaned this morning. I got up around 7. I've just been— surprise, surprise— on my computer. Kind of like some unexpected stuff though. I haven't even started my course that I wanted to get up early and start. So I think the day is going to shift a little bit. I was going to go to the filming— the gym I use for filming and film a glute workout and ab workout, but so far from my house that I'm like, I don't know if I'm gonna get there today. And then by the time I get there, realistically, it will probably be like 4 PM because I want to get a good chunk of my research done today. We all know gyms 4 or 5 PM is just not the vibe. So I don't know, but I need some form of movement. I'm gonna— I just ate breakfast, I just had a little yogurt bowl. I'm gonna go on a walk right now because I've been feeling a little antsy. I usually don't like to like sit down and like grind before I do any form of movement. All right, you guys, we're back and we did it! 40-minute walk is definitely what I needed. I feel like that's also major progress for me because I used to be— we talk a lot about this in our work— but in like a hyper-masculine fitness approach and like always trying to do more, do more. I used to probably be like frustrated with myself and like, Kelsey, just sit down and focus. I can't focus, girl. No wonder you haven't been outside. I just know taking that 40-minute walk is going to allow me to sit down and really dial in and be more— not only more productive, but like more efficient and not be like rethinking things. I am going to make my coffee and probably have my creatine and my glutamine right now too. I've just been using the PVL glutamine and creatine. Yeah, these are fine as long as you're getting the creatine monohydrate. I've been taking creatine for so long, you guys. I remember I started— what is that? It's weird. I remember I started taking creatine. I did notice I was feeling super dry mouth and I would wake up like couldn't even swallow because I was so fucking dehydrated. What? I was clearly just not drinking enough water, but we already have creatine in us, so as long as you're drinking enough water and taking the recommended dose, it's totally fine. And it just helps with energy for your lifts, honestly just for like overall health. And there has been some recent studies showing the benefits of women taking it, so I'm actually doing research on that too. So it's totally fine to take, it's actually really, really good to take. And then L-glutamine is just really good for restoring your gut lining and gut health too. And I actually got the blue raspberry flavor. I usually just get the unflavored one, but they were out of it. Actually, were they out of it? No, I think I just wanted to try it because now it's like a fun little drink. As you guys know, or will come to know, I love fun little drinks. Literal perfection. So good. I don't know about my work from home people, but I love setting up little different setups like almost every week. Like 2 weeks ago, I was really obsessed with my walking pad. Last week I was obsessed with sitting outside, and now I just set up this little corner this morning. It's so cute. Usually we have like the chair this way, but now I have a little ledge for my coffee and water, and it's just So gorgeous by the window. So this is where I will be doing research. Okay, hold me accountable, you guys. I'm doing my research project, so let's do it. Hi guys, it's the next day and oh my gosh, yesterday was a freaking blur. I was glued to my computer. I definitely did burn myself out yesterday and it was already only a Monday. So we are resetting for the rest of the week because that's not happening. I didn't even make it to the gym. I did a little meditation this morning. I just got Starbucks for me and my nail girl. I'm actually sitting outside of her house right now because it's just one of those mornings. I woke up super tired, which I have not actually luckily felt in a long freaking time. You guys, that meditation really helped just clear my mind. I'm going to go get my nails done and then go to the gym, kind of take like a little bit of a slower morning, just Not stepping on my computer right away. I was actually wanting to like lay out in the sun today, but it's kind of cloudy, so it might just be another work day for me. But that is okay because it's a Tuesday. Anyways, you guys, I just wanted to thank you so much for coming to my first ever YouTube vlog. Follow me on TikTok and Instagram if you guys want to see more fitness-focused content, and like and subscribe. Wait, I've never said that before. I hope you have the most beautiful week whenever you're watching this. Thank you so much. Love you.
