Shoot me. I love N Sync. I miss them. I love how sassy JT is in this song. And this song reminds me of a certain ex to whom I dedicated this song in the day. Ahhh Good Times. ;-)

MMMMM. Green Smoothie Bliss. I'm so digging these guys. So full of nothing but goodness, filling and yummy. You can't feel bad about what you are consuming with these. This one had 1 Banana, 1 Carrot, Spinach, Greens (Kale and such), some Pinneapple chunks and that's IT. Not even any honey or sugar.
So good. I'm reading these 2 new books on Detox For Women by Natalia Rose. Whoa! More light bulb "A HA!!" moments. People....I'm stoked. All this crap....all the antibiotics and such, the Pill, that all contributes to - well basically a HUGELY MESSED UP BODY and you are destined to have challenges getting fit and lean and feeling good until you GET RID OF THE JUNK that's accumlated in your body. Wow. I'm so blown away by what I'm learning, and more importantly, by how much more amazing my future looks with each day.
Gotta run. Please keep Jenna (Eat Live Run) in your prayers and check out her blog for amazing inspiration on not only her approach to food and health and getting/staying fit but her approach to LIFE.

Hey Kittens!! How is your week going? Mine has been - well yes, busy again! But I don't want to complain about being busy, I just am learning this lesson of needing (and wanting) to find balance. I need to start saying "No" more often....I'm definitely finding myself overbooked, over-committed and under-balanced. When Mr. Rene comes over for massage he's always having to attack the mine-field of knots in my back. Not Optimal. So, I'm working on this.
Please everyone, it's really been on my heart/mind about Jenna over at Eat Live Run. Her 19 year old brother died by an accidental gunshot wound. So sudden. Life is precious, and NONE of us are guaranteed tomorrow. Things like this make me so sad~ more sad for other people ~ many of whom are in my life~ that will face a situation like this or similar- where someone is unexpectedly gone, and then they will wish they had done this or said this, or LET GO. I don't want to live my days with regrets. I want to know that the last time anyone sees me, it was with a smile and a hug and with happiness. I know that sounds very general, but really. People- my gosh, I am so blessed with so many amazing people all over this country- all over this WORLD in my life- that is a blessing. I love finding out about you- about your life, about what you love, what makes you excited, everything. People - relationships- friendships- that's a gift. Look for the GOOD in people. Because EVERYONE will inevitably let you down or fail you. Everyone will, in some way. Look for the beauty inside of them, because even though they will let you down, even though they are "different" (from you- and we are ALL DIFFERENT!) - it is our differences that make us unique, that make up our very BEING. Appreciate that.
I'm a neat freak. I'm totally OCD about it. Other people I know are very unconcerned with order. They embrace the chaos. Instead of me flipping out about it and trying to CHANGE them to be a high-strung OCD neat freak like me, I learn to appreciate their calm coolness amidst chaos. Maybe some of that rubs off on me and vice versa. And we both probably laugh at each other's "issues". Right? But - I experience this a lot and I see it a lot in others. Stop trying to change other people. Stop trying to make others in to what YOU think they should be or shouldn't be. LOVE them where they ARE. Love them for WHO they are. Be thankful you get to be a part of life with them. Seriously.
I love this picture don't you? You will start to see more variety in my pictures on this site. Because as my 'fitness' goals and my workouts are evolving, so will my site. I'm not just doing ONE thing anymore. I am EVOLVING in my diet, EVOLVING in my training.....and it's all good. I feel so good about all this. Every day I get up like a kid on Christmas morning, ready to dive in and learn more about my (our) body (bodies) and how I can become optimally healthy from the INSIDE OUT. It's not just about the outside anymore. My mind and my soul are equally if not more important. Peace of mind; invaluable.
I'm off. Catch you guys later. ;-)

Tuesday, April 28, 2009 at 11:42AM 2 Comments Kids, I had major issues posting videos last night. YouTube was being naughty AGAIN. @()&%@)&%@)&%_+##. Whatever! Anyway, I'm taking a "me" day today. I have been running non-stop since - well at least since the beginning of last week. I need some chillaxin time. Also- I updated my Links section too- divided up the blogs into "Fitness" and "Eats" if you know what I mean. If I don't have your blog up there, let me know. I told y'all, I'm updating this website just a bit every day.
Also, I read that book by Monica Seles last night. Whoa. Amazing to hear that other people have gone through this same craziness and come out on the other side, healthier in mind and body than ever before.
That makes me so happy. I'm so happy and so excited about what's ahead of me. Are you? If not, guess what? The ONLY one that can change your future is YOU. Make it happen.
The biggest time wasted is the time spent GETTING STARTED. Do what you can TODAY. Live Large. Get Small. LOL ;-) Love you guys.

It really is hard to argue with such perfection. Huge Jackman is just Utter Manoliciousness. He will continue to be a contender here on Monday Manjoyment, would you all agree? And yes I take nominations for your favorite. Otherwise, it might be Huge Jackman Mondays haha. I'm off to join @tommytrc for a sushi dinner. He can't wait to see Cupcake Ford Fiesta and give a test drive!! WOOT!
On that note, KO is planning the Blog/Tweet tour- are you in? Starting in Chicago- to Dallas, then to Florida, then back up the east coast then back to Chicago. OR maybe I'll just stay in Miami. We'll see. ;-)I'm tempted fo sho.
Y'all enjoy the Wolverine preview. Dear God in Heaven. I like it when Huge gets angry. Makes me smile.

Thursday, April 23, 2009 at 07:42PM 3 Comments Hey Everyone! Dang! It's 6:45PM and I'm just posting! I was out like all day but what a day! And last night, I was up late AND THEN MY LOVELY NEIGHBORS and their (spawn of satan) child kept me up til like 2am. So I was taking Excedrin PM LATE....and getting a late start on my day.
Last night I was spending a ton of time reading on Eat, Live, Run and some other blogs- I told you about ThriveIn30.com right? This guy has a ton of great insight about eating well, training sensibly and treating our bodies right.
Guys and gals, I cannot tell you how pumped I am about what I'm learning and how it is just really like opening my eyes and I'm thrilled....I feel GREAT after cutting out artificial sweeteners, butter spray, fake creamer, anything FAKE. My stress level gets lower every day. My focus becomes more clear. I feel like I've just discovered "IT"..what I should be doing, what will be the real true "answer" for me....I can't describe it, although I'll try.
I have SO Much to share with you guys as I read more, as I try more stuff, as I move forward in all this new and varied training....Wow. I'm wowed.
Kids, Mr. Rene is coming over here at 7:30pm for a massage. He is an angel from heaven. ;-) Life is good.
I also have another VLOG SHOOP!! coming later this evening!! Stay Tuned! XOXO
