“I can eat whatever I want today, my diet starts on Monday.” “I’ll start my new diet and workout routine on Monday.” “It’s fine that I eat this, I’m starting a cleanse in two weeks.” “I’m not doing anything today. My training starts on Monday.” Sense a theme here? So...

The holidays are upon us again! This was an absolutely incredible year for me and my family and I am a bit sad to see 2017 leave. Before I lament the end of the year too much, we still have some of the most delicious, family-filled holidays to get through. With all...

It must have been during our first year in Colorado, when we had a whole bunch of eggs about to go bad in the fridge, that I mentioned to Rob that I wanted to try to make a dinner egg bake. His eyes completely lit up and he got that little giddy smile he gets when...
