Kinda like the song says, "I found love in a hopeless place!" When I joined Fit Like Me Divas (FLMD) on January 17, 2012, I was in a hopeless place. Exhausted by the demands of being a stay-at-home Mom for nearly 9 years to two lively, comical, energetic, beautiful boys, still reeling in grief from the sudden 2008 death of my Mom's beloved ...

Fitness Sisterhood

That was also the birth era of rap music which has its bunch of songs to work out to. This has been in my blood for a while. When I ...
