About Me

Hi!  My name is Kate and I am so glad you stopped by my page!  This will let you know a little bit about me.

I am:

• from Charleston, SC, but now live in Wilmington, NC
• married
• a fur mom to two sweet boys
• a kindergarten teacher
• loud

Things I love:

• dragonflies
• fitness
• FOOD!
• Bath and Body Works candles, Victoria's Secret sport and swim (RIP) and Old Navy activewear and dresses
• books, books, books!
• Friends
• music and singing 

Things I don't love so much:

• mushrooms
• driving
• nasty people
• Wal-Mart (but somehow I'm there every week anyway...?)

So, how did I get into fitness?
My mom had been active and always cooked healthy meals, so it was instilled in me at an early age.  I started my first Beachbody program, Insanity (Come on, y'all, let's goooooooooooo!), about 6 years ago and I haven't looked back.  I have done a lot of programs and I love what they can do for your body and mind!

Within the past few years, I have made a lot of changes in what I eat.  Things that I used to think were healthy I now know are not.  It's not about starvation or deprivation; it's about moderation and enjoying food in a positive way by using it to fuel my body for those tough workouts!

What am I doing with this blog?
This will be a place where I share my fitness journey.  I will post recipes, workout reviews, and anything that I think is interesting at the time (I am aware no one else may find these things the least bit interesting).  I am not an expert by any means!  Everything I have learned about fitness has come from at-home fitness programs and research on the Internet--and if it's on the Internet, it's got to be true, right?

If you have any questions about anything or would like to see something specific on my blog, let me know!  I look forward to sharing my journey with you!
