So I’ve been gaining weight. I know I’ve mentioned this but it got to a point where I was eating real food, limiting carbs and sugar, working out and still gaining weight.

Yup, I am doing it again. I made the decision on the very last day to sign p at 11:50pm. Nothing like time running out and feeling tired of not moving my ass to make me sign up for something I thought I wouldn’t do again. This is going to be walking with the hope … Continue reading

I want to eat in a way that helps me get through sticky moments with my tendency to eat chocolate in the afternoon. I believe that because I CrossFit three times a week, yoga now … Continue reading

I have been doing two photography workshops at the same time plus I have been doing some photography sessions too.
