Feelin'


Along with recipes, health tips and fitness moves, I want to share my journey mentally and emotionally too.  I am not certain though that people want to read it, but I do feel like people will understand me more and possibly can relate. Other than the physical transformations, I feel like more happens inside and I want to explore that. 

I have always been an active kind of person, sports, running and outside "stuff." The thing that really kicked my ass was nutrition, I was so active that I thought I could eat and drink whatever I wanted! Like most of us~ 


I became a spin instructor at a small studio in Lake Oswego OR, loved it and still do! I def was not the skinniest of the bunch and I didnt really even care lol but after teaching 6-8 times a weak, I began to have NO ENERGY and my body was not changing.. Not cool when you are working out so much, right?!?


After getting blood work done, I found of that I depleted my iron, thyroid, vit D and I had no cholesterol in my diet. "Diet"... I hated that word and didnt even understand how important it was until I completely screwed up my body. Well it was time for a change for sure, I was almost 30 and my body was almost 50.. Not cool! 


So it was time for a change, thats when I met the fix that "fixed" me. 


Stay tuned!
