Product Review

At Expo East, I only took pictures of my favorite products. Here are a few that I tried and was obsessed with. You probably haven’t heard of most brands, which is because they are small and new! You can buy most online however.  These flackers were amazing. Raw, vegan flax seed crackers may not sound [...]

In August, I was invited to shoot a special video with T-Mobile featuring their new myTouch 4G smartphone in Los Angeles. I was able to stay with my brother and his family, as well as find time to visit the Tone It Up girls and one of my college roommates. It was well worth the [...]

This week I’m finally moving back into my own apartment! For the past month, I’ve been living out of a few suitcases, eating most of my meals out or on the go and trying to productively work in various coffee shops. I’ve tried to keep my schedule as regular as possible but one major difference [...]

They tend to be made by health conscious companies who use minimally processed ingredients and do not include artificial ingredients, always a plus!

Growing up, there were certain foods that were always in our house like a block of cheese, Triscuits, Crispix, some sort of Keebler cookie, English muffins, Smucker’s Reduced-Fat natural peanut butter, etc (all are long gone by now in this household of “Eat Clean” and “Ideal Protein” diet products). I remember my Mom telling me [...]

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 [...]

This weekend was a rare summer occasion. I stayed in the city! The weather looked awful and I had a ton of packing to do. Friday night, Roomie and I went out for sushi on Newbury Street. We were sat right away outdoors which never happens at Snappy Sushi. It was refreshingly chilly, a nice [...]

Summer weather can be “muggy,” so getting up early to get in a workout is sometimes the only way to guarantee a workout. If you don’t exercise in the morning, you need to stay hydrated and eat properly to keep energy levels up. People get out of work at 5 or 6 but have a [...]

“What is up with the protein love affair?” a Facebook user posted on my Fan page after I shared a link to a recent post, “How much protein do you really need?” Research shows that 60% of the US population is trying to increase their protein intake. From general health and wellness, to sports nutrition [...]
