I was thinking today about how far I've come since February. Wow - what a difference mentally and physically. I know you can't see the inside changes. The confidence, passion and energy. I can only hope that a portion of it comes through in my posts....
I've been seeing all these pumpkin shakeology recipes but I never have canned pumpkin at home. Well, this week's grocery trip, I decided to stock up. So, today I went looking for some recipes. I combined a couple and made it may own to create this Chocolate...
I saw this recipe and was intrigued, yet scared to try it for months. Carrots in my shake? In my Tropical Strawberry shake? It could either be really good or really gross. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me and I just had to try it. Does it take...

Are you a runner? Do you do anything besides running? Most runners I know are addicted to running and feel like it gives them the best workout possible, working all muscle groups. And running IS a great workout. I am definitely not saying it's not and...
