water

Last weekend, I didn’t do my wonderful weekend update because I was a headless chicken, mostly because my plans were altered by an emergency trip to Bakersfield and consequently, my first prego meltdown. See, my dad was sent to Bakersfield for work and as soon as he arrived [...]

Last week, I explained my workout plan and how I’ve set my fitness goals. While exercise is an important factor in keeping in shape, diet is equally (if not more) important, especially with a baby on the way. You can work out all you want, but if you’re eating sh*t, you’re missing out on a [...]
