This is one mom's journey, my journey, to the best shape of my life by the time I turn 40. No Trainers, No gym memberships, No crazy diets. I am going to prove that you don't need to take time away from your family and spend hours in the gym or deprive yourself to be as healthy and fit as you can possibly be.
