Many people’s health and fitness goal is to lose weight and like I have iterated in the past, many of these people are hesitant to sacrifice or change up a few things to achieve to those goals. The most common one of these would be alcoholic beverages and social drinks. Soon followed by the inevitable…
Pumpkin Pie Candied Walnuts
I had such an incredibly inspiring, motivational, rewarding and fun weekend! I was surrounded by people that lift others up and want to see others succeed.

Crockpot Turkey Chili and Flexible Dieting vs Clean Eating
Flexible dieting and cleaning eating “diets” are being talked about everywhere and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. They are talked about in a way that you can only stick with one of them at a time. If you are a flexible dieter you most certainly aren’t a clean eater. If you are a…
