The topic of diet soda, spefically Diet Coke, came up a couple times over the weekend with multiple people. This came across on my Facebook feed and thought it would be a good idea to share it. 

I stopped drinking Diet Coke a long time ago mostly because I wanted to see if could give it up.  Slowly,

I started to learn more about diet and nutrition and that made it a lot easier to never drink it ever again.

First Olympic Weightlifting Meet in the books! Michelle killed it. She put up a 118kg total and PR'd both her lifts!

So proud of this girl!!! Michelle competed in her 1st weightlifting meet last weekend, and PR'd both her lifts putting up a 118kg total. Her and I have only been working together for a little more than a month or so and she has already come a long way in a short amount of time. She's 17years old and just decided to start competing in Olympic weightlifting before she moved to #santamonica 2 months ago. We're excited to help get to the next level. She also is a really talented volleyball player. #weightlifting #liftlikealady #CFSBX
