Clean Eating

Happy New Year!!

I have decided to stop dieting this year and switch to a cleaner, healthier was of life instead. I have an amazing support system on my "Bringing Sexy Back" Facebook group. A wonderful group of ladies that I don't know personally, but it seems like I do now! With the help of these ladies, motivating me and keeping each other accountable with workouts, I have lost 10 pounds since the beginning of this new year! I'm down inches as well.

I actually had someone ask when I would be blogging and making meals again, so I decided to re-vamp my blog and hopefully inspire others to eat clean and stop dieting. It's a lifestyle and that makes it easy and effortless.

My plan is to do a daily blog of the food I'm eating and the healthy choices I'm making. Now, with a 14 month old I might not get to it everyday, but I sure will try!

I hope you enjoy the new blog and the new me!
