Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 7
Readers, I will be the first to admit that I am not the best at following instructions. That is why I have always found baking to be much of a challenge – it so often needs to be precise, and I have never been one for looking at the details. ALL that being said: I…

Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 3
I was wondering when this challenge would really start to feel like a challenge, and my question was answered this week. The week started off as it usually would, me embracing the low-carb diet, high-intensity workout life. Then on Saturday, it hit me. Like a ton of bricks. I was tired, cranky, and hella irritable.…

Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 1
Hello beautiful humans. I’m here to recap the first week of my transformation challenge! I am almost astonished to say that this week, diet was easy.

Where are all the Gym Resolutioners?
Hey everyone! So there I am in my room the other night, readying myself for bed, when my boyfriend turns to me and notes that he hasn’t seen the typical influx of “gym resolutioners” this year. This observation struck me. When I thought about it, I realized that he was right; the gym didn’t seem…

I’m back where I once was before, but I’m not.
I strongly believe that the Universe gives you exactly what you ask it for. For the past few weeks I have been feeling like something is missing. I workout, I eat my greens, I play with my dogs. Life is good. No, life is great. But I’ve been wondering: where is my fire? Where is…

What I Lost to Fitness.
I hope you are not confused by the title. I’ve lost good things, and I’ve lost bad things. It’s just change. It’s just life. It’s a part of my journey that I want to share with you. This is what I lost to fitness. I lost that “not caring” mentality. I do care. I care so…
