Confessions of a Group Fitness Instructor
1. You know that merengue we did? I choreographed it in the car, forgot what I was going to do and made it up on the spot. On the same note, do not be afraid if I come up and want to booty pop and shake with you. 2. If you’re talking during class, that’s…

Do you like Bella’s new haircut? Wait, it doesn’t look like she got a haircut? That’s because it wasn’t professional.. I did it after she got stuck in a scorpion glue trap this afternoon. I had to cut some superfluous hair to get the sticky paper off the side of her right paw- poor girl,…

I’d say a 10k, but not quite a marathon 😉 – You have to train or practice for the main event. You need to know what you’re going to do in advance, or it can get a little messy (like the merengue I made up at 11 last night… thank goodness I remembered it today.…

1. I ate two brownies in my car before walking into the gym to check your food journal. 2. If you come to your appointment with your hair and makeup perfectly done, I make it my mission to have you sweat off the makeup and leave with crazy gym hair. 3. During my own workouts,…

Last night, I did something I haven’t done in 5 weeks: went to the gym! It felt so good to be back. I was cleared to workout again on Monday, but didn’t quite feel energized enough for a gym workout until last night. The Pilot was home, Liv had a full belly, so I…

One of the things I always find myself doing over the holidays is thinking about where I was the year before, because it’s always different. 4 years ago, it was our first Christmas in Valdosta, where I ended up meeting some of my closest friends. It was my first year of squadron holiday parties, decorating…

Morning friends! Hope you’re having a great day so far <3 Thank you so much for the kind words and congrats on our new home. Since it was a short sale, I’m still kinda shocked that it actually fell into place and worked out! I’m definitely excited to start putting it together and decorate 🙂…

1. I had another reminder that things in my brain sometimes do not translate well to real life. That would be a teff flour tortilla “pizza” with marinara, artichokes, gout gouda, oregano and… sardines. I covered the entire thing in hot sauce. And no, it wasn’t good at all. I was green in the gills…

One of the questions I get all of the time is about how I get so much done during the day. I blog 2-3 times a day (two regular posts + one family or fashion post), always had at least one other job, sometimes two –I like to work because all of my jobs don’t…

1. I haven’t been posting my 5th meal of the day lately, because they’ve all been weird. (don’t ask) 2. 99.9% of my clothes are in the POD, and somehow this still managed to happen: What was I supposed to wear in the meantime, right? 3. I’ve gone through two boxes of Tulsi Sweet Rose…

Since I’ve considered myself a *runner*. In the spring of last year, I broke up with running and bid adieu to races, structured training plans and a whole lot of pressure. I had ran two half marathons and a boatload of other races, but a few things made me realize that maybe running wasn’t my…
