Ok, so it's been a while....but trust me I have not been out of the game. I have been hitting the gym and the job market getting it done and keeping it real. I do not let circumstance stand in my way of a goal. When I started this journey I was 19% body fat  and weighed 150lbs. For a 34 yr old women this is still in the excellent rang...to date I am 14% body fat and weigh 137lbs. I feel great, I look good and I have tones of energy. I eat 6 times a day so I am not starving myself.....trust me I eat and you have to if you want to gain muscle. A good combination of diet and exercise will do you a world of good.

Tip of the day....just because something says "DIET" does NOT mean it will help you lose weight. Diet soda is just as bad for you as regular soda.
