Week 2 Goals
The whole month of December is going to be difficult for me. I already see myself extending this challenge by at least 2 weeks (while I might exercise, I KNOW I’m not going to eat well when I make my trip back home).

Checking in: Week 1
I’m not going to lie… I’m off to a slow start. December is the busiest time for me at work, so between that and my monthly “lady problem” I have been feeling exhausted! It wasn’t horrible, but definitely could have been better.

Most importantly, I’ve come to understand that while...
