From Frustration to Freedom: Why I'm Finally Giving Up on Growing on Instagram
From now on, I'm stepping away from the crazy rat race of trying to grow my following on Instagram. It's become such an unnecessary source of stress, and, honestly, I’ve had enough. You might have noticed that my blog posts have been dwindling. That's because I've been spending an inordinate amount of time figuring out what to post on Instagram. What will attract more followers? What do they want to see from me? And the truth is, I don’t really know. But I've reached a point where I don't care anymore.
When I first launched Kerin's Korner in 2017, my goal was never to amass a huge following, especially not on Instagram. I wasn't even an Instagram user back then. I simply switched my personal account to a business one to promote my blog content. However, as my followers began to grow, so did the pressure to create Instagram-exclusive content. I remember hitting the 500 followers mark and feeling so thrilled. They were genuine followers, real people who truly cared about what I had to say.
Now, my follower count hovers around 1800, but it dips a little more each day. I question the authenticity of most of them. I reckon about 500 of them are genuinely interested in my content. I toyed with the idea of starting anew with a fresh Instagram account to better engage and grow my audience. I even did some research on how to go about it. But, after much contemplation, I realized that's not the real problem. The issue lies in my reluctance to create content purely for Instagram growth.

Okay, maybe that's a bit exaggerated. But the point remains, we love our pizza or cake or $5 Biggie Bag (if you know, you know😉). And why should we have to give it up in the name of fitness? The good news is, we don't have to. This blog post is devoted to showing you how you can maintain a fit and healthy lifestyle without bidding adieu to your beloved pizza. So, grab a slice (or two), sit back, and get ready to embark on your wellness journey without letting go of your favorite indulgence.

I've Slipped Up with My Nutrition Habits, but Here's My Game Plan to Get Back on Track
It's time for some real talk. Lately, I've been slipping up with my nutrition habits. Life has been hectic, and I've found myself reaching for convenient, unhealthy options more often than I'd like to admit. But hey, we're all human, right? The important thing is recognizing when we've veered off course and having a game plan to get back on track. That's exactly what I want to share with you today - my personal journey of slipping up on nutrition habits and my game plan for getting back on track. So, grab a cup of tea and let's dive in because we're in this together.
Introduction
Allow me to elaborate on our topic of discussion. It's easy to fall into the trap of unhealthy eating habits, especially when life gets busy. Suddenly, before you know it, you're off the health wagon and into the fast-food drive-thru. It's something I've personally experienced recently. Having a game plan to get back on track is crucial. It's like a roadmap that guides you back to your health goals when you've taken a detour. With this in mind, my goal today is to shed some light on my journey and share my strategy for getting back to healthier habits. So, why is this necessary? It's simple. Our dietary habits significantly influence our health, energy levels, and overall quality of life. Regularly consuming unhealthy food can lead to issues like weight gain, fatigue, and even more severe health problems.
