In this new series, I will be posting quick reviews about different products I receive. I get a TON of free samples and full-size snack items to try. I give some away, share some with my fiance, and keep some for myself, but it seems like I never really tell you guys about them on…
This post is sponsored by U by Kotex but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

They are part of the Alliance for…
That face is the face of a woman who got her butt kicked. (Okay, that’s obviously a dramatic overreaction, but you get the idea.) I have taken the Luscious Legs and Arm Candy, Kettlebell Chicks, and Kettlebell 101 Swing Series classes taught by the phenomenal Anabell Browne. I have sweated my face off, I have nearly barfed…

Last week, I took my first class with Cornell McClellan – personal trainer to the Obamas for over two decades – at Fitness Snob Studio. I wanted to learn more about his Immortal Body Workout, as well as some exercises and tips to help me get closer to those coveted Michelle Obama Arms. The class…
This post is sponsored by Vega, but the content and opinions expressed here are my own based on my truthful experience. I am not a morning person. At. All. But I am a night person, which means that a lot of the workouts I do are in the evening/nighttime, which is not necessarily ideal for…
