Embarking on the Whole 30 Journey… With Breakfast Hash
Hello 2017! Hello “New Year, New Me”. I vowed I wasn’t going to overhaul my life this year. I wasn’t going to make a “big change”. I like the ME that I am. I don’t need a new “me”. So, I decided that I was going to pick a few things to improve where I needed to and focus on having more fun. Living a little bit more. Take more trips. Love harder. Laugh more. Give my kids so many snuggles that by 2018 they were sick of me! And be a really good wife. You know, one that doesn’t complain about the trash not being taken out, because…

Making Your Resolutions Stick in 2016
It happens. We vow to make each year better than our last. We struggle through the holidays, eating one too many cookies, saying we’ll start in January. So we join a gym. We buy a Bow Flex. We throw out the leftover cookies, candy, and buy fresh foods, new cook books, download an app or two and tell ourselves, “THIS IS THE YEAR! NO MORE EXCUSES!” And what happens? Come February we’re picking up takeout on the way home from work, contemplating cancelling that gym membership, and vowing to “restart” tomorrow… or next week… or next year. Let’s face it. Life gets in the way. Sticking to a plan is…

Letter To My 22 Year Old Self
I found a photo album the other day that was littered with pictures of my early twenties. I had to sit for a while and really look through it. Of course, I thumbed through slowly, laughed at a few things, remembered a few others, and reflected on some days where worries seemed few and late nights seemed many. A lot, I mean A LOT has changed in 10 years. I didn’t know the amazing man I would call my husband. I thought having kids was not for me- ever. I thought a good workout was a pub crawl on a Sunday afternoon, and the word responsible wasn’t something I would…

A Lot Can Happen In One Year (My 1 year Transformation)
On September 19th, 2014 I took a leap. I decided to take some steps to better my fitness. I decided I wanted to improve my nutrition, and overall health. I was almost 6 months postpartum with our third baby girl and I was doing ok. I was working out a little bit here and there. Trying to make it to the gym 3x/wk and eating as healthy as I could. I was also breastfeeding, in school part-time, was stressed to the max and just feeling like I didn’t have it all together. So why not add something else to my plate, right?! I joined Beachbody as a coach. I wanted…

The Struggle to Gain: Body Shaming in All Forms
Standing in front of the mirror and being unhappy with the body of the woman staring back at you. At some point, even if it’s only for a brief period of time, we’ve all been there. Who are we kidding. Whether it’s that postpartum saggy skin, stretch marks, that little bit of cellulite that came out of nowhere, those not-so-perky-anymore boobies, or those scrawny stick legs with no muscle tone. We’re shown “perfection” our whole lives in magazines and on TV and live in a competitive society which makes us feel like we have to constantly improve. Plus, as a woman, it’s in our nature to be judgy and…
