Last year I wrote about the silly little moves I do that help tone my body, even when I’m not exercising. I’m bringing it up again because of an email I received a little while ago about “secret” body toning moves you can do in public.

I’m on  a mission to get rid of my gut! Since it is my primary focus, I am sharing some of the exercises I do regularly to get my tummy in shape. No more muffin tops unless they are coming out of my oven!

When talking about body shapes, I am definitely an apple. I carry all my fat around my middle, while having the skinniest little legs. It looks ridiculous.
