Sweat Roundup of the Week!

I got slightly back on track this week with my workouts, after an embarrassing week of fitness last week. A lot of my favorite YouTube fitness channels have been putting out some great workout/exercise videos recently so those have been inspiring me and giving me lots of ideas to take to the gym.

.  i stepped in gum the other day while walking to the gym wearing my workout sneaks  .
.  it was a real buzz kill  .

When it comes to being healthy, in general, I'm really not too bad on the fitness front... but I fear that I'll never have visible abs because APPARENTLY those are "made in the kitchen" and #goodlord do I love my sweets. How do so many women replace ice cream, cookies and chocolate with like almond milk yogurt pops sprinkled with stevia??? When I get sweet cravings during the day, I satisfying the craving with some fruit. But come nighttime, post-dinner, you can't keep me from my straight-up-diabetes-inducing chocolate or ice cream. Honestly, it's already on my mind before I'm even through with my dinner plate!!

Do you eat dessert every night? What do you eat for dessert that you don't feel crappy about later?
