Flashback Friday
Losing weight was always something I wanted but couldn’t do on my own. But life still happened. Life is different now, but I’m happier and healthier. My kids have grown up and they see the difference in their mom. They’ve all told me how I’m happier and they love my energy. I will never regret…

Mom Life
We are all busy. If you have one kid or 6 you’re busy. If you are blessed to stay home or work, you’re busy. If you’re married or single….busy! Because we are moms! Most of the “Mom population” takes care of the kids in most ways. We carry them, birth them, nurse them, take care…

Little Changes Equal Big Results
One of the most liberating moments through this incredible journey has been giving myself the permission to do things in smaller increments.

Stepping Forward in Faith
I’m crazy nervous. So, I met with the dietitian and the social worker a couple weeks ago. First I will tell you that I was scared to death to meet with these two people. I thought I was going to be judged for a whole slough of items. From weight to diet to food journal entries…
