Eat Your Vegetables Challenge – Are you with me?

I’m having the hardest time making myself eat vegetables this year. Wth??! I know I need them but 🤢 When I was a little girl I used to hate all and all sorts of vegetables. My mom would sneak them into the rice and other foods. I couldn’t stand the taste of raw or cooked […]

Bipolar Disorder Health & Fitness Self Love

I am not bipolar, I have bipolar.

I also have fingernails, that doesn’t mean I am fingernails. Back in 2000 and something I was diagnosed as ‘manic depressive’. That is what bipolar disorder was called back then. Back when people didn’t talk about it much. Back when you had no idea why you just couldn’t be normal like all of your high […]

Motivation to start eating healthy – or to get back to it 😉

Do you ever get motivated to eat healthily? You go out and buy delicious, beautiful, and healthy foods. And you buy gadgets to help you meal prep. Then you spend some time putting meals together and prep some snacks so you don’t reach for the junk food later. And the first couple of days you […]

Why I am on this weight loss journey

I used to think I was fat. I used to think I was too fat to enjoy my life. My mantra was “as soon as I lose weight I will…” insert life here. I wish I could go back in time and tell myself, “First of all, you are not fat, you have fat. […]

Self Love Weight Loss Documentary

I’m losing weight … for real this time.

It took me MONTHS to gather to courage to make this journey. I have been stuck in a weight-loss cycle since I was 13. I am done with that. In August 2019 I decided to start a documentary to track my weight loss journey. I started filming some of my workouts, taking pictures of […]
