Time. It’s the one commodity I never seem to have enough of, can you relate?
I’ve become very intentional about how I spend my time. I took a close (and admittedly painful) look at how I spend my precious 24-hours. I knew I needed to challenge myself to manage them more efficiently and more purposefully. The challenge resulted in several life changes. You can read more about that here. Today though, I'm talking specifically about changes to how I grocery shop to help manage and increase my...
For most of my life I hated exercise. These negative feelings originated all the way back to my middle school years. I believed I was completely doomed when it came to sports or anything active; Which resulted in me never trying out for or participating in any sports, and a lack of motivation to even try. Fast forward a few years when I started to try to exercise in high school and college. I did what I thought was best and went to the gym where I spent hours on the elliptical, treadmill, or...
Tell us a little bit about yourself!
Hi! I’m Kaci! I presently work full time practicing Family Medicine as a Public Health Physician Assistant. I also hold a bachelor’s degree in Dietetics. I am married and have a “fur-baby,” Tabb, who I would describe as a dog trapped inside a cat’s body! I grew up on a farm in Florida, but moved to the Alabama coast in 2007 and have lived here ever since.
Growing up, I was not what one would call a physically active kid. I enjoyed sports, but outside of the...

Let me start by saying that I typically never post pictures like these, and I probably never will again; But I have a message that has been burning on my heart, and so I share these photos with a purpose. Today I am sharing these pictures and being open about my personal journey because I think it is important that we as women see transformation pictures with a different kind of message. It wasn't easy to decide to share these pictures, not because i'm ashamed of them, but because I didn't...
Today I’m excited to share some of my favorite “go-to” gym essentials! These little gadgets and goodies make my time in the gym easier, more fun, and more efficient. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
These weight lifting gloves are awesome! They are slim and sleek, but really keep my hands from developing outrageous callouses! I bought mine from Fit Four.
These darling headbands from Buff Bands are my absolute favorite! I wear them all the time (ahem, they're cute enough to slick back day...
This is part 2 in my experience with learning to love exercise. In my first post, I covered non-scale victories, and the role they play in exercise motivation, consistency, and enjoyment. Today I want to go deeper with a few action-oriented strategies for consistency and the way that they will help you build a love of exercise that you might not already have.
Just do it!
Nike had it right with this slogan. We can't wait until we feel like doing something in order to do it, otherwise we would...
Exercise is something that I truly enjoy. I haven't always been able to say this... it used to be something I viewed as merely a means to an end. I worked out for aesthetic purposes only. I wanted to look lean and toned, but ironically, I also went for the type of exercise that was the least beneficial for physique change (cardio rather than weight/resistance training... but that is a topic for another post! For benefits of weight training read this post and how to get started read this post....
“My beloved speaks and says to me, ‘Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. ‘For behold, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. ‘The flowers appear on the earth once again; The time for singing has come, And the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. ‘The fig tree has budded and ripens her figs, And the vines are in blossom and give forth their fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away [to climb the rocky steps of the hillside].’” Song of Solomon 2:10-13
