I just love reading Bitch Cakes' blog! I always come away feeling better about myself with a new found inner-strength and determination. I also found myself quoting BC often in my own blog and writing down many of the things she had said that meant a great deal to me so I could look back on them when I needed to.

It felt as though BC was writing to ME and helping me learn how to cope with my own journey so I decided to create this page in her honour. I feel privileged to be able to share her journey and I love looking at all of her photos.
It is underneath these photos you will find the experience and insight of a woman called *Bitch Cakes*

With permission from Bitch Cakes, I would like to share some of my favourite photos that I have found on her blog.

BC has an awesome bike that she loves - it's a pink Hello Kitty Cruiser and she participates in many bike tours through New York on her cruiser while wearing her very unique biking outfits, which I love. Here are a few photos :

I pulled this quote from BC's Empire State Building stair climb post.

"........when you're in the stairwell, you don't see the whole thing. You only see what's directly in front of you. And at that point, you're just putting one foot in front of another. You won't see the enormity of what you're doing as you're doing it. You just do it. You Just. Keep. Going. I think this is a great analogy for the entire weight loss journey, or anything you want to do in life. Yes, you have the end goal in mind (in this case, the observation deck/finish line, but this could also be your goal weight or any other goal you have), but you don't let yourself get freaked out about that, or scared at how far away that end goal might be. You just tell yourself you're going to do what you need to do right now and take it (literally, in this case) one step at a time. And whether you're climbing 85 flights of stairs, running 26.2 miles or losing 100 pounds, you'll get there - when you get there. It takes as long as it takes. Just never, ever give up."
