Second

Hello. Yes, I know, I am not too creative with the blog titles. give me a break. I am a newbie. As my creative self becomes more confident and resourceful, I am sure I will have more interesting titles to my blog. But for now, you will receive the quick and easy.

How are ya'll today? I am well, thanks. It was a busy day non stop. Went to work and actually worked. Man, it's intense, and I am bored and unmotivated. I did exercise as promised, though! I also signed up for lots of Pilates classes this week, so I am going to kick ass! Good bday gift for me. I also signed up for a Kripalu Pilates retreat with Brooke Stiler! She owns the studio that I work out at. How cool is that? I love that place- both ReAb and Kripalu.

Can I just say that ReAb Bleeker is sooooo much better than Core NYC. I keep meaning write an email or give it a rating on city search. But the instructors at ReAb and ReAb in general are just so unpretentious. The instructors aren't afraid to get down and dirty in the moves. They push, stretch, pull you so assist you in your Pilates lesson. They touch you- shocking, I know. It's great. I leave there feeling strong and like I've progressed. The instructors at CoreNYC were too busy looking at themselves in the mirror to make sure that I had my poses down. They each would stand there with a bottled water and watch as I tried, in vain, to get the poses. Don't get me wrong, the CoreNYC instructures are all nice people, but I don't do Pilates or private lessons to meet someone nice and gentle. I want a challange! Anyways. If you are looking for a studio- ReAb is the place. It is a little more expensive (Pilates is in general) but well worth it, in comparison to Core NYC.


I stuck to my promise of no Perez. I did do DListed once- more like three times. I had a choc chip granola bar- but I think it's all grain sweetened. I brought my lunch from home and my breakfast. I drank my water and tea. I also EXERCISED! Did my cardio and weights. I feel good. Now, I have solid Pilates until Sunday! I am going to hurt but it will feel good.

I had my therapy session today. Yep, I am just like every other NY'er, I have a therapist. Pretty soon she or Pilates are going to have to give. This 3-some will not last long. I think Pilates will win out because my therapist isn't helping my waistline. I do like my therapist, she's cool- laid back, down to earth. I like that I have a standing appointment- just like on tv!

Uggghhh- I shouldn't of had the second helping of tuna salad- yep I made that for lunch. Used Veganaise- which rocks. And some other healthy goodies. It was good. I just should have stopped! That's what I need to master if I expect to lose weight- know when to say when. I ate the 2nd helping- not because I was still hungry- but because it tasted so damn good. It's not going any place!!!! I could have left it. So the fuck what. I am going to have it for lunch tomorrow. That's good enough. See IGD- Instant Gratification Disease. It's an American Epidemic. Does that even make sense?

Anyways. That's all for today, kids.
