NYC & Boston Blogger Events, plus the REAL Skinny Margarita Giveaway

This week is going to fly by! I’m so excited. I’m going to NYC tomorrow for an event being held by Fitness Magazine called Fitness Blogger Meet and Tweet (#FitBlogNYC). I’m excited to meet all the incredible voices behind some of my favorite blogs and catch up with some old friends. Joe Dowdell will also be speaking, who I haven’t seen since my “All You Can Eat” license was called out last September if you recall…

Before the meet and tweet on Wednesday, I am scheduled to hang with my long lost fitness babe of a friend, Katrina. I’m writing it on here so she can’t bail on me! You might know Katrina from the unstoppable duo of Tone It Up. Katrina got her YouTube start with me on DietHealth videos on YouTube.

I’ll be heading back home in time to make it to another event at the Reebok Headquarters on Friday! My videographer is going to be joining me so I’m super excited about sharing the experience via my niche.

First, Reebok sent over some swag in a cute purple backpack, to which Roomie asked “Are you in 4th grade?” I think it’s cute and I’m loving the black and white sneakers. I’m excited to do CrossFit and not be forced to complete the standard the intro workout, Baseline. I want an actual CrossFit workout and I’m hoping Reebok, as the official sponsor, brings it!

In regards to the trip to Canton, I’m feeling a little nervous. My father worked for Reebok most of my life. I used to go with him to work all the time. I was even on the news once as part of a ‘Take You Daughter To Work Day’ feature. I’m preparing for some weird deja vu.

Random fact: I wasn’t allowed to wear other sneaker brands until I reached High School!

That means, I wasn’t able to participate in the Samba craze of 4th grade. It was a tough time in my life. I think my first non-Reebok pair of sneakers were Sketchers in 7th grade. My mother’s wardrobe during the 80’s and early 90’s also consisted solely of Reebok warm-up track suits. I imagine this would be my wardrobe had black yoga pants never been invented. One of my dad’s former bosses actually left Reebok to help start up Lululemon in the early days in Vancouver… Thank god.

Needless to say, I’m extremely enthusiastic about my week.

The REAL Skinny Margarita

On Cinco De Mayo, I had a baby shower at 11 AM in the ‘burbs. By night time, I was exhausted from the driving and indulging. When I got home late, I texted Roomie that I wanted a margarita. We didn’t have any supplies so I assumed we would go out to celebrate. Instead he made one up for me that was the most delicious tasting margaritas I have ever had.

Using a fresh grapefruit and lemon, tequila, NuNaturals Stevia Orange Drops, soda water and JCore Zero Calorie Metabolism Boosting Drink mix (you can substitute a lemonade powder drink mix), I was handed the most Sarah Fit approved drink ever and I didn’t even create it myself. It was created with ingredients I bought and have daily however. I wanted to share with you the recipe, but Roomie said it’s top secret. All I can share is that, it can be done using just these ingredients…

I use NuNaturals probably every single day in my coffee, banana ice cream or oatmeal. They sent me the new orange and lemon flavored drops last week. This is the first time I’ve used them and was blown away.

They may not have intentionally created them to mix with alcohol but they may just have found a new job in my kitchen. I’m giving away both bottles to 4 readers. To enter all you have to do is leave a comment below this post. You can find NuNaturals here on Facebook for amazing sugar-free recipes. My favorite dessert blogger Chocolate Covered Katie is a fan and uses their products all the time in her recipes!

Products cannot be shipped to a PO Box. You can also get a 15% discount on all other products using code BLG0612 which will work until June 30th, 2012. This is my favorite Stevia, hands down and have been using it for over 2 years. It’s also sold in Whole Foods. Place your order here – www.nunaturals.com and receive free shipping to the continental U.S. on all order over $35.00 after discounts.

Questions of the Day

  • What is the best skinny cocktail you have ever tried? Where was it, or did you make it yourself?
  • Do you feel anxious when you have to go back to places that were once so familiar when you were young like your hometown or old neighborhood?

    I keep stevia drops (vanilla flavored) at my desk for my coffee and oatmeal! I haven’t tried NuNaturals, I just use a generic brand from a local health food store, but I’d love to check it out.

    PS -- I can’t believe you didn’t love Arctic Zero!!!!!!! Sorry to lead you astray 🙂

    1. Applebee’s makes a SUPER DELICIOUS skinny version of a Mojito that I am OBSESSED with! I make virgin ones at home.
    2. I live in my Hometown, same city, never left this county. My middle school is gone, my high school isn’t a place I have to go yet, so I don’t really have the anxiety of visiting long ago places.
    3. (I know there wasn’t a #3) I am SO FREAKING JEALOUS of the trips to Fit Blog conferences you guys get to go to and of all the awesome swag you guys get! I wanna go to the Fitbloggers Conference in Colorado SO FREAKING BAD, but we’re broke and live in FL, so no walking and crashing. lol

    I would love to try the new flavors. I just recently bought the plain liquid stevia and it was not bad had been using the powder form and just could not get over the weird aftertaste in my mouth but the liquid is the way to go I think (only used it once since I just got it)

    The best skinny cocktail I’ve ever had was on my honeymoon in St. Lucia. It was just fresh mango, fresh strawberries, and rum! So sad I will NEVER be able to recreate it--their fruit is the best I’ve ever tasted.

    I grew up on a farm outside of a town of about, oh, 150 people at the most, so going back home to me is wonderful. I’ve known everyone my entire life!

    That margarita looks incredible! My version of a skinny margarita is tequila, crystal light margarita mix, water and ice! It’s only about 70 calories, and the crystal light actually is pretty good. But I’d be interested to try yours -- more natural than the mix I use.

    I like to mix vodka with soda water and fresh fruit, the best for me is blackberries! Mashed blackberries, vodka,soda water, a splash of lime juice and some mint leaves. So refreshing! Or skinny Moscow Mules, with natural ginger ale mixed with vodka, limes and mint or sage leaves. Vodka is the alcohol of choice for me!

    I moved to San Diego 2 years ago but I was born and raised in Italy and my family lives there. I get very sentimental when I see a show on TV where they go to Italy, or even during some cooking shows if the chef is Italian! LOL I am so ridiculous! I love going home to visit friends and family and see the places that are so familiar to me.

    Say hi to Katrina! I am a TIU member and I love the girls. Have fun at your events!

    The best skinny cocktail I’ve had would be the skinny margaritas at El Torito. I tried once and it was SO delicious!

    Go back home always causes me to have anxiety. Whether it’s stopping by the drug store or going to the market, I am always bound to run into someone I know from my past. Sometimes good run-ins, sometimes awkward ones, but whichever the case it’s always worth seeing my family and being able to visit them.

    P.S. Your blog is truly an inspiration and since stumbling upon it, my lifestyle has completely changed for the better! Thank you so much!

      If you give it up, you’ll lose a few pounds. If you start again, you will gain the back. I chose quality of life and I really like wine, and having a few with my friends so I’ve cut back in other things. It’s balance. We all have our vice, and I’m ok being 5 lbs heavier and being able to enjoy my nights out with a few drinks 🙂

    I’ve heard of these drops before but I haven’t tried them yet-- they sound really good! I would love to have them to add to my protein pancakes and smoothies. But do you find that the fake sugar gives you cravings for more sugar at all? I’ve been wanting to cut more calories by using sugar substitutes, but I’m worried that it will mess up my appetite.

    And yeah, going “back home” is always sort of a weird experience. But it is always better when you have your life together and look good 🙂

    I try using flavoured vodka with diet lemonade or Sprite zero to make my drink more interesting…. but I bet the flavoured stevia drops taste yum! If you throw in a few slices of apple with apple vodka and some Sprite zero surely its a healthy drink!! Haha!! (Must be if you can count it as one of your five a day!!)

    Or, gin with a dash of elderflower juice and diet soda water is really refreshing and yummy!

    I love this post!! I have so much to say!
    1) I’ve always wanted to try Crossfit — I’m so jealous of your swag! I know you’ll rock it. If I could afford it in addition to my regular gym membership (which I would never get rid of — how would I run when the weather is bad w/out the treadmil?), I would totally join the gym here.
    2) NuNaturals is THE BEST!!! I have the regular stevia, and I put it in everything, but I’m going to have to get some of those drops. I’ll definitely be using that coupon.
    3) The best skinny cocktail I’ve ever had: My sister-in-law to be’s boyfriend (mouthful) used to be a bartender at the best Mexican restaurant and it was a tradition last summer that we would all go there after the pool on the weekends and have a cocktail or two. The most popular choice was the “Bad Juan” which was a really excellent margarita — most likely the best I’ve ever had, but I knew it was a calorie bomb, so I would rarely get one. Well, one day he invented a version called the “Skinny Juan” and it was JUST as good (with much less guilt). I can’t say exactly what was in it, but the restaurant has since closed so I’m really going to miss those drinks this summer!!

    You should try Drink Skinny Margarita Mixes! They’re the ONLY all natural, low cal cocktail mixers made with real juices & fruit purees, and sweetened with stevia (no preservatives, no sugar and only 15-30 calories.) We have a line of three flavors: original (lime), pineapple mango, and pomegranate blueberry, and they make dozens of other drinks besides margaritas (including cosmos, mojitos, and pina coladas!)

    PS The black Reebox are adorable--I need a pair!
