Hi!  My name is Ashley.  My husband, Jon, and I raise our little family in Little Rock, Arkansas. We have been together since 2013.  We have 2 kids, Brooklyn (5) and Jon David (3).  Brooklyn was like having the first grandbaby all over again because her cousin who is the next closest in age, Sophie, is 15 years older.  Jon David, he was born 3 months into covid and is the only grandson; needless to say, they get spoiled.  We have 2 chihuahuas, Louis and Fendi and 2 cats, Solo and Valentino or “Tino” as she is often referred to.  While I was raised in a small town about 50 miles from Little Rock, Little Rock was where I was born, where most of mine and Jon’s family live and where I have called home for over 15 years.

Although I am a southern girl who loves animals, sports (football is my favorite) and the outdoors, I can promise you, I will be “put together” in whatever I am doing.  I am like this with my daughter too.  She will go outside and play but her hair will be fixed, with a bow in it and she will most likely have a dress on.  I love cooking and baking, fashion, makeup, and all things designer (hints the names of my furbabies) but being organized and healthy is very true to me. 

My blog came to fruition because I had struggled with weight loss after having my son.  I spent hours and hours trying to find out why I wasn’t losing weight when I was so dedicated to the gym.  You can ask any one of my friends, I got up, got my kids ready so Jon could take them to school before he headed off to work.  After they were gone, I was in my car not far behind heading to the gym.  I was there 5 days a week and usually by 8:00 a.m. lifting weights and playing tennis.  After doing this for a good year and a half, I knew something more needed to change.  Now, I didn’t know what that change was going to be, but I was determined to find out.  And I did and here we are!

My biggest take away from this blog is wanting to help others.  So writing blogs and giving you all the tools, items, resources you need to get yourself healthy and fit too makes me happy.
