Both belly bulge and love handles are about excess body fat, not lack of muscle. Crunches and ab exercises are therefore not the solution. The best way to reduce these problem areas is to reduce your overall body fat percentage, and we all know that that requires diet and exercise.

Fat is merely stored energy. It is a physical state, nothing more and nothing less. It implies zero about your value as a person in this world.

At the end of the day, your health is your responsibility.

I am doing the best I can given what I have today.

Why choose to fail when success is an option?

Be brave and be patient. Have faith in yourself; trust in the significance of your life and the purpose of your passion.

I've always believed fitness is an entry point to help you build that happier, healthier life. When your health is strong, you're capable of taking risks. You'll feel more confident to ask for the promotion. You'll have more energy to be a better mom. You'll feel more deserving of love.
