Let me set the record straight… I don’t HATE cardio. That one time I wrote a post about Peloton, people came out of the woodwork to tell me how wrong I was. They also told me how stupid I was and how much they hated me. That was a fun day… Thing is, they didn’t actually READ the post before jumping to conclusions. What I said was, cardio is great….

Here’s another edition of Tough Love with Tina! ❤️ “I had a crazy week so I couldn’t {insert healthy habit here}.” Sound familiar?

Plus, both of her jobs (cashiering and cleaning cars) kept her on her feet all day long, so she didn’t really need to worry about it. I mean, she moved nonstop from the time she woke up to the time she went to bed. My mom was…

Maybe that diet really didn’t work…and maybe you shouldn’t try it again! Have you ever done a diet that worked really, really well? One that helped you drop the weight in a record amount of time?
