I’m not sure where we left off, but I’m sure it was somewhere way back in the beginning of my pregnancy for lil’ bear. My weight loss journey was going really well, I was eating Paleo and working out regularly. I felt I was definitely on my way to my goal. Pregnancy has a way of curtailing some of those efforts.

I’ve written time and again how much I love CrossFit. You are probably tired of reading about it, but sorry folks, it’s here to stay. Over my almost year of this, I have gone to a couple competitions to take pictures, and photographed others that I work out with.
