If you’ve been around Bits of Love & Life for a while, you might’ve caught glimpses of a little thing my son and I do called Burger Bounce. And if you’re new here… welcome! Let me tell you what it’s all about and why it means more than just burgers.

Burger Bounce started as a fun, low-key tradition between the two of us. We’d pick a local burger spot, try it out, and rate it together. Just something lighthearted and delicious to share. But over time, it’s grown into something much deeper.

In the middle of my weight loss and wellness journey, it’s easy to assume burgers would be off-limits. But here’s the truth: life’s about balance. It’s about savoring joy, creating memories, and not letting perfectionism steal the simple pleasures that bring connection and laughter. Burger Bounce reminds me that wellness doesn’t have to be rigid, it can be human, heartfelt, and flavorful.

It’s also about time. Time with my son that I’ll never get back, and choosing to be present, even if it involves burgers and fries. I’m a firm believer that wellness includes feeding your soul, not just your meal plan.

So yes, you’ll see Burger Bounce pop up every now and then here. It’s part of my story. Part food, part fun, and fully about love and life. And in this space, there’s always room for that.

With love,

Mindy
