So this year I have a new visual that I would like to mimic. Though this model is shorter than I we have pretty much the same body type/build. I would just LOVE to get the curviness of my body like this. And because we have the same body build, I know this is not [...]

It’s been a LOOOOOOOONG interesting journey being here with you all these past couple of months. Finally eating right and getting in a daily dose of exercise has paid off in a big rewarding way. I am just 4 pounds short of reaching my ideal weight. 160. I could go smaller, but I don’t want [...]

Most of us tend to take our bodies for granted. Maybe it’s because we do not recognize how amazing and wonderfully made it truly is. We spend our time picking on ourselves. Looking at blemishes that we think other people notice. We live our lives being self conscience and comparing our beauty to celebrities we [...]

Slow and Steady
Remember the fable about the tortoise and the hare? The hare got off to a zippy pace and seemed sure to win. But he didn’t, did he? The tortoise, while naturally much slower than the hare, kept moving steadily towards the finish line and was able to cross first.

Well, today marks the start of a new week. Some Sundays I have to make myself workout, but not today. I was sluggish, a little sleepy, but I got up to get it completed. I had an intense cardio/strength training workout (just as good as it was yesterday with my trainer).
My eating has been clean [...]
