Motivated Monday~Journey to Health
Welcome back to Motivated Monday!!! We are now on our 5th week of our mission, many of us are changing behaviors, thoughts and patterns which have become ingrained within us over time.

That fear lasted for a few seconds before I got my inner thoughts in check. Losing weight is a daunting thing, anyone who has tried to get fit knows what I ...
