Fun fact: Despite my consistency in the gym, I still sometimes battle with the level of confidence I have with myself. It’s crazy, I know; but it is possible to work very hard at something and still not always feel like you look as good as others may see you. I’ve received many compliments on…

It’s Not about a Number, It’s about your Happiness
Two years ago, I was in a bad place. I didn’t like the way I looked, I was miserable and I felt like whenever I tried to eat better or stay in the gym I’d give up and get frustrated. I had always enjoyed going to the gym, but it had just felt useless and…
Throw the Word ‘Diet’ Away!
So, month 2 of 12 is officially in session, so I have a question: How many of us are still saying you’re going on a “diet”? Don’t you truly just hate that word?? I know I do. Every couple months or so, I would call myself going on a “diet”, and within about a week…
Self-Care Sunday: Hydration, Hydration, Hydration
I’m going to keep it simple this week and take a page out of one of my favorite podcast’s books, The Friend Zone. For the wellness segment this week, Fran talked about how she began drinking 3 liters of water and raved about all the positive benefits just one extra liter of water gave her daily,…

The last couple of weeks have been horrible to say the least, smh. But I have gotten my motivation back. Needless to say, work has been brutal, and literally kicking me in the butt. From working late, to on call hours, and everything in between; the life of a supervisor has really been a task…
#Yoga4Growth
So, in my quest for a newer, more flexible me, I have began a #Yoga4Growth challenge for February. So far, I’m on day 5, and have gotten through my first week of yoga!! I am really enjoying it and it gives me some time to myself to unwind and meditate after a long day. I plan…
My Review on Having a Personal Trainer
I have finally finished my 6 months of personal training! I wanted to do a review on it, because I have a new-found positive perspective on it. Before, when I would get serious about being in the gym and working out, I never considered getting a personal trainer. My main thought was, “I can do…
I Bought Clothes. Lol
So, I sort of went against my challenge to myself yesterday, but I am glad I did. I originally told myself that I would not buy myself a stitch of clothing until I lost a substantial amount of weight. I was all for this, until I realized I have no winter clothes, and a pair…
