There have been awesome poses so far in this challenge. As much as I love working on back bends, flexibility, and handstands, these are the types of poses that are my go to every single day.

Whole 30 – Half Way Through – Thoughts
I had started one big mega post with the meals we've eaten, cost, thoughts, etc, but I think it'll be easier to break it down into seperate posts. This coming Thursday (2 days from now) will be the start of week 4. It's kind of crazy that time went so fast, but it also seems … Continue reading Whole 30 – Half Way Through – Thoughts
