Once again, I’m traveling for work. This week, I’m in Los Angeles. Eating on the road has become the new norm since August for me. I’ve somehow managed to lose the summer cocktail pounds and tone up thanks to a very scheduled fitness routine. It could have been so easy to eat most of my [...]
Yesterday, I received an amazing surprise! After raving about the new bite flavors, Chobani was kind enough to thank me by send me some Greek yogurt! I immediately dove into the Mango, which is why it is not pictured (my favorite flavor). I usually use the plain and sweeten it with stevia because it’s so [...]
Do you eat veggies at breakfast? At my Junior League meeting on Monday, we were challenged to think of a breakfast for kids that included good carbs, fruit and veggies. While I don’t think it’s necessary to have fruit and veggies at breakfast, it was an interesting exercise. Between oatmeal, greek yogurt and protein pancakes, [...]

The workout was harder than I expected in a good way, especially the pushup burpees! However as anticipated, the actual fitness portion only [...]

After working hard the past few days, I rewarded myself with not cupcakes but a manicure! I went to MiniLuxe on Newbury street which charges a hefty $19 for a simple manicure but enjoyed my experience with Sunny. I’m not big on rewarding myself with food because whenever I do, it ends up turning into [...]

My second favorite city is officially Chicago. The Laughing Cow invited me to join them at the Chicago event, SELF Magazine’s Workout In The Park this past weekend. Not only did they have me at Chicago, but the icing on the cake was working alongside Lisa Lilien of Hungry Girl. It’s funny, people either LOVE [...]
Do you bring snacks with you when you go on vacation? I always do and am actually in Mexico right now hanging out with my girlfriends from high school so before I left, I shot this video to share with you guys. Here is what I bring with me! The customs took my apple but [...]
Shirataki noodles are a staple in my refrigerator. So is Laughing Cow cheese. Combining the two is a quick dinner for me so when I went sent a package of the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Cream Cheese Spread, I knew what I was having later this week. When I got home from vacation, I [...]
