Bubble Butts, Boulder Shoulders & Quadzillas…Oh My

I find it absolutely hilarious that one of the most popular posts and one that reached more people on my Facebook Page than any other thing I have posted over the last 9 months has been a post about my ass! Seriously!  Check it out.  I did a brag post on Facebook about my ass just because it was really looking mighty fine that day.  I had not even worked out yet and that baby was just as perky as could be. Yep, Baby Got Back! :)  Click the pic and it will take you to a larger image where y...

5 Lessons I learned losing weight, getting fit and healthy

Back in July of 2012 if you had told me that in 5 years I would be an entrepreneur in the health and fitness industry I would have laughed you under the table....all while I was wearing my size 3x tank top, smoking a Salem Slim Light 100 and drinking a Diet Coke. That year was a turning point.  The youngest daughter graduated high school and my husband and myself had graduated to being almost openly hostile room mates instead of having any semblance of a marriage.  I was completely disillusio...
