Quote of the day


Fitness is truly a dedication to your own heart and its desire for expansion, growth, challenge, boldness, and full expression. 

Its insatiable beating keeps driving us forward, guiding us as we surrender to its unfolding and desire to live in the ever changing present. Fitness activates our mind and body connection and pulls us out of our heads and back into the present moment to feel, to breathe, to focus, to let go, to push the mind past its limits, to trust the heart. The present is life, it is action, it is lived in the wildness of the heart and its expansion. 

This quote by Gene Tunney resonates so strongly with me. Its so good, I had to remake it twice. :) Below is Gene Tunney, an undefeated Heavyweight Champion and pioneer of boxing strategy. Read more here: Gene Tunney

Happy Weekend

Hello there, I hope everyone had a lovely week and is revving up for an amazing weekend! I had a full morning of meetings and interviews then a lovely late lunch at Lupe Tortilla with a skinny margarita and lettuce wrapped fajitas. I was in heaven. The patio was bustling with trays of sizzling fajitas, hand shaken margaritas, and a fire pit nearby. I might as well have been eating on the beach Once the margarita hit the table, I felt like I was instantly transported to a beach side cabana. I love me some fajitas and ritas :) This weekend my sister is coming into town for a visit. I'm so excited! Can't wait to catch up over a glass of wine. I may be fit, but wine is definitely in my diet right now. :)  Happy Weekend everyone! Enjoy yourself--you've earned it!

Happy Good Friday

                          I hope you all are having a lovely Good Friday! Tonite I'm continuing my new job celebration at the Rooftop Lounge in Houston for a much needed date night with my man set to some bouncy and bass driven house music. Woot! I love me some good, happy, deep and soulful house.  Can't wait to dance it out. This weekend will be especially tempting for those of us on a clean eating diet, especially if you plan on hitting up Easter brunch. This would be a great time to share your goals with your family and friends so they can help keep you accountable and most importantly set some time aside to prep some healthy snacks. Keep your eye on the prize. Eat the eggs all you want, just take it easy on the cadbury eggs and waffles at Easter Brunch ;) You'll thank yourself later.  Check out today's workout below. Set some time aside for yourself this weekend and get moving! What ...
