I wanted to write this post because one of the questions I get e-mailed about the most is...what did you do when you finished the 24 Day Challenge? When I answer this question I normally start by asking what the person's goals are now that they have kick started their weight loss. Do they want to lose more weight, more inches, gain muscle, increase their endurance, see more muscle ... [ Read More ]

Fast forward to today...we are up to over 450 challengers (and growing daily)!!

I hope you all had a great weekend...it sounded like it was a cold or snowy one by a lot of you! I hope I can send some warm weather to those of you who are in need of it.

Greg and I went out for an early date night on Friday and we ... [ Read More ]
I can remember this exact time last year so well. I was struggling with my weight and making every excuse imaginable for why all those extra pounds were sticking to me from both pregnancies. I thought I was eating healthy, I was counting calories, I was going to the gym when I had time...but it just HAD to be that my metabolism changed. I couldn't think of any other reason why nothing was ... [ Read More ]
Well another 24 days have come and gone....this time I am happy to report I lost 4.5 lbs but gained so many new friendships, and a world of inspiration.

What started as a group of about 20 of us has since grown to almost 90 people in less than a month. The majority of the group all started ... [ Read More ]

Let's start this Monday off with some pure awesomeness, what do you think? First of all....IT'S FALL, officially! The temps have dropped, it's been nice and cloudy, the spicy and warm scented candles have been lit, and I've caught the decorating bug. I couldn't be happier about all of this...all I need now are some leggings, boots, a sweater, a scarf and a pumpkin spiced latte in my hand. I ... [ Read More ]
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. Ours was filled with an equal mix of fun, relaxation and productivity. Yeah there was some serious laundry folding going on on a beautiful sunny, Sunday afternoon but it has to get done somehow right? Shane was napping and Nathan and Greg were out fishing (for the second time this weekend), so at least everyone else got to have ... [ Read More ]
