December 9.
Village Pourhouse.
7-10pm.
I don’t care if we haven’t met yet, you’re still expected to be there. (Or buy a ticket.)
Why should you come?
1. To help me raise money for the A-T Children’s Project
2. Because you can win THREE SESSIONS to work out with my trainer Joel (it’s okay if you’re not an NYSC member, he can work around that if need be.)

ReadyGourmet Easy Omelet(te)s
Despite usually being a ridiculously good speller, I sometimes have problems with a few words. (Hard to believe, I know.) Omelette is one of these. I just looked it up to double-check, and apparently “omelet” is a renegade spelling of this word.
So my two questions:
1. How do you spell omelette?
2. Have you ever tried ReadyGourmet Easy Omelettes? I just ordered them from...
WatchI saw this this morning on Joy Bauer’s segment on the Today Show. I had the opportunity to speak with her recently, and let me just say, she’s amazing!
She was talking about some simple swaps you can make to make holiday baked treats less bad for you.
Substitute pumpkin for any oil in a recipe. For example - one cup of oil? One cup of pumpkin. This can cut 1,800 calories throughout...

I want a cupcake.
Just saying.
It's not just about what you see on the scale...
…despite most weight-loss programs and efforts being measured as such. Sure, being able to say I’ve lost 47 pounds is pretty spectacular.
And it’s not just about the number on the size tag. (Although that 4 on my gray Ann Taylor pants or the 6 on my new coat are pretty sweet.)
It’s so much about how you feel. Both physically and mentally.
Today, I ran 8 miles. I’ve...

What's in those chicken patties?
A lot of you have asked what’s in these chicken patties, so I finally remembered to grab the label from them (they’re from the Market Basket), so I could share with you.
chicken (obviously)
salt
spices (I know. WTF?!)
pepper
anise*
fennel seed
parsley
asiago cheese (I think this is what gives them their tastiness)
*linked because I didn’t know what it was, so I...
Feeling a bit like a blimp today?
You’re not alone. Most people don’t usually indulge themselves quite like they did yesterday (or I hope not!) so our bodies are reeling from all the extra salt, sugar and crap we put into them.
How do you get yourself back on track and keep your pants from busting right now? (No, the answer isn’t wearing sweatpants. Or, well, you can if you really want.)
I actually have a piece...

Have you bought your ticket yet for my charity happy hour? December 9!
I just caught a reflection of myself in a train station window in Trenton. That thinnish girl wearing leggings and a cute leather jacket? Hey, that’s me! Sometime I forget I’ve lost almost 50 pounds.
Another little-known fact
I totally overslept for both the trainer and my seven-mile run this morning. I woke up at 9, and as I’m catching an 11:15 train from Penn Station, there was nothing I could do about it except feel a little guilty and make up for it next week…
