My 7 Day Detox

So I am currently on day 6 of my 7 day detox and I feel amazing!  I needed to do something to jump start my “Baby Weight” weight loss journey and my friend Jason, who owns Real Wellness Fox Valley, suggested that I do their purification program.  It focuses a lot on getting rid of [...]


Calling all moms!

I am bursting with excitement.  I am a few short weeks away from my delivery date and life as I know it is about to change forever.  I almost feel like I have been on pause for the last 8 months just waiting for the big day.
After dissecting my Biggest Loser experience there were so [...]


Getting Fit with Food

I love The Biggest Loser.  I love how the show inspires and motivates people to change.  For me personally, The Biggest Loser showed me that I had what it took inside myself to change my life but I must say…coming home and actually doing it was not as easy as I thought it would be. [...]


Food Memories

Do you ever have a moment when you eat a particular kind of food and it brings back a memory? It happens to me all the time! The other night my husband and I were eating corn on the cob and I said to him “Does this remind you of summer time when [...]


Winning a battle in a never ending war

One good day for me feels like an eternity.  One saying that I repeat over and over again in my presentations is that I do not have good days and bad days.  I have good hours and bad hours.  I could wake up in the morning, have a healthy breakfast and a great workout but [...]

I was speaking at an event the other weekend and there was a lot of talking [...]


How important is god in your life and why?

While on the Biggest Loser I had the opportunity to talk to other contestants about their different religious beliefs and I have found myself in religious turmoil.  Being pregnant has even exaggerated the issue.
I was baptised and confirmed Catholic.  As a child I attend church because I “had” to.  As a young adult I was [...]


BL Audition Video - Critique

Judi Hodgen-Benson had posted her Biggest Loser Audition video on my Facebook fan page.  I figured the best thing I could do is watch it and give my honest opinion.  I am posting my feedback here hoping it may help others looking to make an audition video.
I have no expert experience in audition videos but [...]


Biggest Loser Season 10 Casting

One of the top questions I receive when speaking at events is “How did you get on the show?”  My answer to that is “I attending an open casting call in Milwaukee, WI for Season 5 of the Biggest Loser!”
If you have dreamed of being on the Biggest Loser I would encourage you to attend [...]


Pregnancy Update

I am happy to report that I am definitely adjusting to pregnant life. I am currently in my 17th week of pregnancy…almost to the half way point! The first trimester was a little rough. I was very tired and dealt with a lot of nausea. My second trimester kicked off with [...]
