If you haven't guessed by now...I am a total fitness enthusiast! I love it all....high intensity training, cardio, strength training, yoga, pilates, kickboxing, and everything in between. You probably won't find me in a Zumba class though. Nothing against it, I'm just not coordinated enough to do all those dance steps. But I've tried it! I am also a Certified Personal Trainer. I spent years working in a gym and training clients. It's a passion of mine. Another passion of mine, fitness clothing ...
My Christmas Wishlist
I seriously can't believe the holidays are right around the corner! Every year they sneak up on us! I must confess, I started my holiday shopping last month! It's actually late for me this year. I usually start in September. My husband, on the other hand, does his holiday shopping the day before Christmas! Why?! Just why?! Just thinking about it gives me a full on anxiety attack...like sweating and out of breath! ugh! So, I wanted to help inspire your own wishlist and maybe for someone else this ...
Thanksgiving Tablescape | The Kids Table
I am a lover of tablescapes! I am so inspired by well put together, pinterest worthy tables. From formal to casual, I tend to love them all! Since there are so many Thanksgiving tablescapes to choose from, I thought it would be fun to style a kids table for Thanksgiving! And after styling it, I kinda want to sit at the kids table this year! This Thanksgiving we actually have more kids than adults...which is kind of scary. I decided to use my dining room table to design the tablescape because ...
Workout Wednesday | Pushups
Pushups are one of those exercises that you can either do or not do. If you are doing them on your knees......stop! If you want to do a real pushup, you need to start by doing a real pushup. Knee pushups actually work different muscle groups than real pushups, so you will probably never build the strength to do a real one. Why do a real pushup? Because you will build the most sexiest arms and back ever! That's why! And...did you know that real pushups work your core muscles too. I realized that ...
Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas
Yesterday we took the littles on a road trip to North Jersey where I grew up. I haven't lived in my old town for 20 years, but it's home to me. It gives me all the warm and fuzzy feels. My dad passed away suddenly 10 years ago this month. It's so crazy how much has happened in those 10 years. Weddings, babies, and just life in general. I miss him everyday, but each year, I feel like the memories are harder and harder to hold on to. Traveling up north makes me feel close to him and I know how ...
Clean Eating Turkey Meatloaf Recipe
Last night, we were in the mood for comfort food but without all the extra calories. I also needed to whip something up quick, so I decided to make my go to....a healthy, clean eating meatloaf! I used lean ground turkey and even added shredded carrots to the recipe. The carrots and zucchini keep the meatloaf extra moist and not dry. I kept the meal simple with sautéed spinach and sweet potatoes. We opted for no ketchup to keep it healthy, but you can always add ketchup to it....just like moms ...
