Can we be honest for a quick moment, how many times have you left the gym without having time to take a shower or change out of your workout clothes? I have had to do this a number of times, for various reasons. Either, I was called out of my workout because Mason was having a hard time at daycare or because I was trying to squeeze in my workout in-between appointments and errands.

As you might remember, I had wrist surgery this summer. Recovery from that took longer than I thought it would and ... Read more...
Fitness Update: How I Stay in Shape as a Mom
I wanted to share a fitness update with you all since we're already months into the new year and I know so many of you set health and fitness goals for 2018. In January I did my first Whole30 and absolutely loved the experience. While I have not stuck to a Whole30 diet I have been trying to make conscious decisions about my meals. They aren't always healthy but I try to be cognizance of what I'm eating and when/why I make bad decisions when it comes to food. I notice that my unhealthy choices typically happen when I'm not ...
