Monday!

Hi guys! Hope you all had a healthy and happy weekend! I am getting pumped for my spin class at 630 tonight! Hope you all gave a spin class a try and if you haven't yet, make sure you get on that! I have officially given up wine and caffeine since Friday :) I am cleaning my whole body out and getting rid of all the bad stuff! I got a slight headache Saturday and Sunday from not getting my usual latte but today I feel AMAZING! Come say hi to us at Envy, cute new things!

Told ya!

Told ya I'd write :) So I am at Envy right now looking at all the adorable, stylish, practical and flattering merchandise and wondering where everyone is! Get down here and buy some stuff people! Everything in this store is AMAZING! We just got in twistband, the cutest and most functional headband ever! So come down and grab 1 or 3 or 50. :) I went to spin today like I said I was and honestly it makes you feel so great when you are done! I think you should all go try a class at a local gym and see what you think! 
Talk soon!

M.I.A.

NOOOO not the band silly, ME!!! I have been "chasing my tail" for the last 2 weeks...and haven't been able to share all my stories with you, sorry :( Envy girl is back! Woohoo! So, did my first ordering for our fall collection and let me tell you, it is pretty amazing, Omgirl, I LOVE YOU! Tie-dye pants, meditation wraps, adorable basics with some flare, lets just say...aaammmmaaazzzhhhhiiinngg (i know there is no "h", it's for exaggeration) :) 

So, you will be happy to know I have attended spin class at my new swanky gym 4 times in the last week and a half and am going tomorrow as well, finally stopped getting sore from it, what a great workout. These classes are over an hour and I was sweating so much that there was a puddle underneath the bike, ew! But I must say the men next to me had rivers underneath theirs..yuck yuck!

 Anyway, I have also been eating healthy except when my dad came into town last night and I ate the most amazing food at Sevilla downtown, oh and dad by the way, ceviche is more like salsa, not soup!  Oh and P.S. everyone what a great and healthy dinner..I found a great recipe for ceviche at :

I will talk to you all tomorrow, I PROMISE! Have a healthy night and morning, I will be waking up early to go on a looonnnngggg walk with my bestie and our dogs, off to spin and then into Envy! yay!

Quatro


Hi Hi...Um, excuse me but is it really 100 degrees in San Diego right now!!!!???? YA it is! Absolutely crazy!! But good news, I have a great tip for you today! I have done it tons of times at my pilates reformer class but actually MASTERED it yesterday..pretty groovy. The stretch is called short spine stretch...it is super hard to explain in writing so I have attached a youtube video you must check out...this stretch will increase your strength and flexibility and you can do it at home also without the reformer as a great back and hamstring stretch. Remember that when you come back down and your legs are lowering to let each vertebrae in your spine hit the reformer one at a time...ENJOY!

Day 3...

I woke up feeling refreshed, another day without any vino at dinner, man that makes a BIG difference :) I went on a 5 mile walk with my dog and bestie and I enjoyed a relaxing pilates class last night after work, just as relaxing as a glass of wine and so much better for you! I worked on ordering some AMAZING new fall pieces that should be arriving in October/November! YAY! My tip of the day is to eat all of my carbies at lunch and none for dinner, it helps shed some lbs. around the tum tum. Salad with chicken on it for dinner sounds delish! XO

Day Two...

After starting my morning out right with a glass of my new found obsession, greenfix smoothie :) I went on with my busy day while the sales dude from a certain gym in town called me all day.. "It's the last day of the month, I'll give you $250 off, free months off blah blah blah". I still haven't joined this gym because I have been regularly going to pilates and walking my dog like 24/7. I decided to join because he was so persistant, I just wanted to be done with it and him (so I guess he is a good sales person). Trying out new classes like kickboxing, butts and gutts, cycling (which I LOVE) and aquatics will be fun and definitely will keep me busy writing these blogs..I will be sore...very sore...first day at my new gym starts sometime this week (haha) I'll keep you updated...XO!
