#BestSelf2015

Today I am honored to be guest blogging on Binks & The Bad Housewife. I took a step in vulnerability and I talk about some real life struggles with image, weight, and self confidence. I also talk about my Whole30 journey. Here's a snippet of my post.
"I think this whole weight loss/living healthy thing is a constant journey of figuring out how your body works and reacts to certain foods and exercises. My body really liked when I fed it clean and whole foods. Knowing how your body reacts to things and having the will power to eliminate those items from your life is the journey am I choosing to take. It’s tough. I am “that girl” at the restaurant that has some specific requests for her food but I am ok with that now. What I have learned over the past almost 2 years of discovering how my body works has been a game changer for me. Don’t get me wrong, I am human and will fail occasionally. Example: I knew I was going to start another round of Whole30 on January 1 so… on December 31st I ate pizza and cheese bread. Yes, both gluten and diary. Ouch. Let me tell you it was delicious, but not worth it. My skin is still trying to recover from that night of gluten and dairy binging."
Go over and read the rest here! Tell Abby that Bee sent you! She is an amazing blogger and has such a real voice and passion behind each blogpost. Plus, her style and eye for vintage pieces is to die for! Her and I go back all the way to 9th grade Algebra class.
