Hi!
I have missed you all! I’m back in the swing of things and very determined. I recently started the New Rules of Lifting for Women, and love the program. It is counterintuitive for me because you don’t lift smaller muscles in isolation. After i read the book and am a few weeks in, I now [...]

After a very hard and stressful week, i fell apart and burned 2 cheats. It included chips and salsa, a piece of chocolate cake one night…the other night was a bowl of ice cream and chocolate chip cookies. I can’t even stand the way my insides feel.
