I don’t know about you but I am feeling the Holidays this year. With all of the socials, parties and dinners I need to regain control. Do you feel like you are knee deep in the Holidays over eating, over drinking and consuming way too much sugar and food that is making you feel awful and changing your mood? Not to mention it is making your clothes tighter?
Who is brave enough to join me for ONLY 7 days? Come on, 7 days is all you need to do! If we reach 50 competitors on Facebook I will give away a $25 Fit4Females Gift Certificate to one lucky contestant. The challenge is free.
