Just when you think you’ve reached the end of the road, you find that that Dead End sign you’ve seen is just a mirage. You actually have more road to go. Not just that, but there’s a fork in it to, taking you to a new, completely unexpected destination. We had just started to really […]
Call me stubborn, call me hard headed, call me anything you want that describes sticking to my guns on something but, leg day is on Wednesday and will always be on a Wednesday for me. Everyone at my gym does leg day on Friday. Thursdays I have classes and my regular day job, so I […]
Definition: (noun) a place or situation where one feels safe or at ease and without stress. Ex. “Times when we must act beyond our comfort zones” About two months ago, I stepped out of my comfort zone. I do it a lot in my attempt at success throughout my life, so this wasn’t any different […]
This one has been on the burner for a few months now, but life has gotten in the way and I haven’t had a moment to breathe. Until now. This is for all of the body rockers. Yeah, you in the gym, swingin’ and a swayin’, rocking’ back and forth as you workout. No, I’m […]

So, as all of you blog readers of mine know, I did the 12-week Shortcut to Size program by the super fantastical Dr. Jim Stoppani. Anyone who is in anyway involved in the fitness world and knows who this man is – knows he’s amazing and well, amazing. My body is constantly changing. I do […]
Friday was an absolutely gorgeous day. Despite nerves and panic seeding itself deep only a few days before, I was able to push it all aside and enjoy the day. I got some of my yard raked, and I got to break in my new bathing suit and get a little sun on my pasty […]
