  • I get it - I used to feel the same way. I finally realized that I was tired of always being on some kind of "diet" and what not.

  • I'm pregnant with my first and wonder how I am going to juggle it all, husband and I meal prep each week and go to the gym first thing in the AM, but that will change once my son comes.

I started adding a few extra calories a day, eating alot of protein, and put on about 3.5 pounds so far, and I am still skinny but fill out my clothes much better. The…
  • I went through something similar for a long time - I only ate 1200 calories and just lifted and did alot of HIIT activity. Yet my pants were always hanging off in the booty region. One day I took a spinning class, caught sight of my flat behind and said "enough". With the help of a good bro friend, I ate more, lifted more,…
