I felt I had to add the little “(Grocery)” bit to the title, in order to not trick anyone with the nature of this post. Don’t get me wrong, I love a trip to my favorite store for a new pair of heels or a dress, but let me get back on track to where […]

Read More ›“Summer is less than two months away! I’m still too heavy to be seen in my bikini in time for my trip to Hawaii!“, a new client confided the other day, feeling beyond frustrated about still not being back to her pre-baby weight and size.
