Dieters that were not getting adequate sleep experienced 55% less fat loss than dieters getting adequate sleep. The whole concept of over eating is much more chemical than […]
May is mental health awareness month, so I thought it was a good time to write about where I am with my mental health issues.

Well, it’s almost 2019. On the brink of a brand new year, I want to share an experience I’ve been dealing with for the majority of 2018. Several months ago, the nerves in my shoulder became paralyzed. At the point this happened I was in super good shape. I felt amazing and was working out […]
Chances are, at some point, you’ve read a celebrity’s diet tips or food diary and wondered whether you’d look and feel as good if you began your days with a green smoothie, ate a kale salad for lunch, filled your dinner plate with grilled fish and steamed veggies, and topped it all off with a […]
