    Strong to the Finish Transformation Challenge 

    As much as I enjoy sharing my thoughts and nutritional information on my blog, I have to say, sharing my personal journey has been a blessing to contribute since I began writing here last summer. Which makes this post all the more special, as I have an exciting announcement to make. But first, I must…

  • March Check-in

    March Check-in

    Even as I write the title to this post, I can’t believe it’s MARCH. These last two and a half months have gone by so quickly. I think it’s because I’ve been working so much. I barely have time to catch my breath, let alone realize what day it is! I have taken an interesting…

  • Where the Energy Goes.

    We are more visible now to others than we ever were before. Our world is shrinking in a way, thanks to social media. Our daily routines and events can now be followed by people all over the world. It’s an interesting time to be alive, isn’t it? And to think that this wouldn’t have any…

    Sometimes you have those moments that are just so cool that you are just like Universe, thank you for all that has happened, the good and the bad, in my life up to this point. Because everything that has happened has lead me here. Well, I was on tv this morning! For 30 short awesome…

    Yup, that’s ‘allergy’ me! 

    Hey guys! I just put this collage together and just had to share. Yep – that’s allergy me! Far left, back in November when I first started experiencing my newly acquired dairy allergy. I went on like that for months, no idea what was affecting me. I’m not over exaggerating or ‘pushing it out’ ,…

  • January Check-in

    January Check-in

    Hello beautiful people. It’s been an incredible first month of the year. And I’m not trying to be cheesey or cliche – I really mean it. I’ve made some great strides towards bettering myself and creating an even closer relationship with me and my body. Something really big has happened (if you read my blog…

  • Being Selfish vs. Setting Boundaries 

    Being Selfish vs. Setting Boundaries 

    The other weekend I had to bail out of a friend’s birthday party. Okay, to be fair, I didn’t bail. I actually did not confirm that I would go, but promised to let her know the day of. And that day, I told her I couldn’t make it. A lot of people from the outside…

  • I’m back where I once was before, but I’m not.

    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…

    Check in – December 15/15 

    Hello beautiful people It’s the last check-in of the year and I honestly can’t believe it. So much has changed in 2015. I’ve learned more about myself this year than I ever imagined. I chased the goal of becoming a more “muscular” me. I’m proud to say that I am where I am because I…
