As a (non traditional) college student, my days are primarily filled with college classes, and studying. Because it had been almost 30 years since I was in a school setting, it took some time for me to get into the swing of things. I was a hairdresser/personal trainer/strength coach for almost 25 years, so when […]

The cold season has begun for our family. This last month went well and I lost a couple more pounds, then I had a setback when I caught a cold from my son. I was pretty darned cranky as I had burned some fat, which released those old hormones, started my monthly cycle, and had […]
