The sad truth is, the food industry rarely has our best interest mind. It is a business like any other. The documentary Hungry For Change helps reveal the truth about the manipulation we are all victims of everyday. We must advocate for ourselves and the first part of that is knowledge! Please watch this documentary, you will thank me! I watched and have not eaten the same since and I have lost weight, and have more energy than ever before. Feel free to leave me a comment once you watch with any questions. I'd love to hear from you! Lets start a conversation about nutrition!

I stumbled upon this article about celebrity chef, Ariane Resnick, while perusing one of my favorite health and wellness websites Well + Good. I was inspired by this self made woman's story of success, through what came naturally to her,...cooking healthy, whole, and most likely very delicious food.  The statement "we are what we eat" is so simply yet so true. Be kind to your body and eat more fruits and veggies. It will give back to you tenfold. 

And I also just kind of love Ariane's cute pink hair and tattoos ;) Click HERE to read her story and maybe find a little inspiration to follow your own dreams.

It’s never too late or too early to get fit for bikini season:

It’s January 20^th, and though most of the country has been in a Polar Vortex, the weather here in Venice Beach, CA ain’t half bad.  After experiencing all 4 seasons here, I finally feel acclimated to the laid back, SoCal lifestyle, which is vastly different than NYC livin. One thing I love is the variety of fitness options in L.A.  I have always been a fitness junkie, and I stress FITNESS, not a desire to be stick thin. I have muscles and I love them. Indoor, outdoor, gym, yoga, Pilates, ocean, pool, sky, bike, swing, sling, you name it there is a fitness regime built around it and beautiful weather to support it. Find what environment works for you and get moving!!

My new love is Hot8yoga in Santa Monica. I have always been a fan of Bikram yoga, but the same 26 postures repeated twice every single time with no variation got monotonous for me.  Enter Hot 8 Yoga. 8 different yoga classes all taught in heated rooms. AMAZING! I’m addicted. Besides the fact that the studios are pristine, and the teachers top notch and eternally positive, I recommend it to anyone looking to shed pounds, work on flexibility, and discover muscles you never knew you had in a calming and very loving yoga like environment.

I stumbled upon this Sports Illustrated Swim book in the house we stayed at in Oahu last week. As i casually flipped through the pages of stunning women in beautiful swimsuits, I was pleasantly surprised to find two of the beautiful suits were actually Bikini Thief!!! Had to share.
