Abby Lutz hasn’t always been a fitness junkie. In fact, as a chubby kid growing up in Newton, North Carolina, she “literally couldn’t even walk a full mile.” But, ten years after tipping the scales at 193 kilograms, the mother-of-two is garnering plenty of attention on social media for dropping an astounding 109 kilograms through running.

One of the side effects of being in the public eye is that people ask you awkward questions. This one on Facebook made me laugh out loud: You photoshopped your arms, didn’t you? Ha! No, but I’ll take that as a compliment. These days, I suppose it’s only natural to assume that if it looks

Cardi B’s baby registry is pretty much as fabulous as she is. TMZ spilled details of the star rapper’s gift requests for the baby girl she and her husband (Migos’ Offset) are expecting. Let’s just say the list isn’t exactly budget-minded — but why should it be if you’re Cardi B? At the low end,

Are you a trend-spotter? If so, you’ve probably noticed the hottest new thing: listening. Listening is hot. It’s about to blow up bigger than mindfulness, even. It’s been lurking backstage, this "listening" trend, biding its time as we saturate ourselves with news feeds and social updates and Kardashian-Jenner product shills. Maybe you caught a whiff
