It started on Saturday morning. Bash woke up not feeling well. He likes to sleep in the bathtub and relax as part of his healing process. I thought he was kidding. He can’t be sick…they don’t have to go to school on Monday. Bash isn’t a faker, at least when it’s not a school day. […]

Solidcore
Today, on my way to a Solidcore fitness class, I realized I’ve never fully emerged myself into the fitness community. I’ve lightly worked out for the majority of my life. My parents had a weight bench and some other weight training items in the basement, that they NEVER used. I used them but didn’t didn’t really […]

I was letting myself get disappointed when I realized something. This is not a quick fix. This not something a band-aid will fix, THIS is […]
#NoExcuses
I was one of those girls you probably hated in high school. Not because I was mean and popular but because I could eat anything and loose weight.
