Goodbye 2017, Hello 2018

This past year has been filled with so many wonderful adventures. As I think back I am especially proud of the steps I took to being healthier, not only in body but also in mind.

You can have your (low carb) pizza and eat it too

I love pizza and being on a low carb diet has really hampered with my ability to enjoy this amazing dish. After seeing a post about “Fathead dough” my life was changed forever. Fathead dough is so yummy and can be topped with any of your favorite pizza toppings, and even use it for desserts! […]
