Me vs. Me

Working out 🏋🏽 was never an issue.

🥩 what needed to change was how I ate.

It wasn’t until I hit 40 and I noticed no matter how much I worked out, I was still gaining fat that I decided to make a major change.

📈 I started tracking macros and I immediately started seeing results!

I’m 41 now and am in the best shape of my life.

Long ways to go, but with the new habits I have developed, I continue to loose fat and gain muscle.

It’s a beautiful feeling to be proud of who you see in the mirror.

BENEFITS Of Waxing VS Shaving Down There 🌸🥰
Keep in mind that waxing can be more painful than shaving and might not be suitable for everyone, especially those with sensitive skin. It's always a good idea to consult with a professional or do a patch test if you're trying it for the first time. AND… Keep in mind that shaving can some

When I first moved into my apartment it was a total blank slate. White walls and uneven wood floors that desperately needed some rugs for added softness! Almost a year later and I’ve really made a little place to call home. I love how relaxing my space feels and I’m always excited to come home
