This post has been a long time coming. It’s one that I’ve had at the back of my mind for months now, but just haven’t had the chance to truly sit and concentrate to be able to type it all out. So that said…let’s get to it. First things first: an HA update. I first announced my diagnosis of ...
Why I Won’t Be Giving Post Baby Body Updates
This is actually a topic that I've thought about for a while now, so I figured I'd throw it out there. Perhaps we'll even get some good discussion going?

A Lengthy HA Update…Grab a Seat
A good workout and a great lunch are in the books for today! Mid-morning, I headed down to the basement for a little cardio. Yesterday’s workout included 30 minutes of walking + 20 minutes of yoga, so I had actually planned on doing a bit of strength training today; but when it came down to it, I ...
