I FAILED!!!!!! That's right people, you read it right. I failed the 30 day challenge. I couldn't help it. I let everything in life come between exercising and getting into shape. It started with severe pain in my knees and then sharp pains in my back. I also couldn't do the lunges the right way and my "trainer" kept telling me that I was doing it wrong (I must be getting old :/). So I stopped. I couldn't continue exercising because I was in too much pain whenever I did the … [Read more...]
Free Hershey’s Chocolate Every Friday Through September!
July 23, 2009 by 2 Comments
Everyone loves chocolate, right? I know I do. I have to eat chocolate every week. I know it's fattening but it relaxes me. So when I do have the urge to eat chocolate, I always go for Hershey's. It's rich, creamy and there's nothing like it. I was super excited when I heard that Hershey's was GIVING away free chocolate. It was hard to believe so I had to get on it. So far, I've received 4 coupons for free chocolate. You must be asking why is Hershey's doing this? Well, Hershey's is … [Read more...]
The Disappointment Continues.
July 21, 2009 by 7 Comments
It's just not fair to go through so many disappointments in one week. It's not but I guess that's inevitable. So, I finally saw Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince last night. It was OK. I liked it but...ok, I have to be honest here....I really didn't like it. I still feel the need to watch a Harry Potter movie. This one left me wanting more and I didn't get that, unfortunately. It's sad because my family and I are HUGE fans and the only one that really enjoyed it was my 12 year old … [Read more...]

July 20, 2009 by 1 Comment
I don't care what anybody says, Chef Gordon Ramsey is one of the best chefs out there! I LOVE Chef Gordon Ramsey. He loves his kitchens to be spotless, his food to be perfect and his chefs to be the best! He's a tell-it-like-it-is kind-of person and I love that. Yes, he screams at the top of his lungs when he doesn't like a dish that you should be an expert on and yes, he makes people feel like crap... BUT, if you don't have to cook for him, he can be the sweetest guy you could ever … [Read more...]

Have you ever bought something because of a life changing decision (like losing weight) or just to try it out because you had a coupon or maybe even just because? Well, that happened to me. After going to the EA Sports Active event in NYC, I decided to make some changes to my diet and also add a workout regimen to tone up for the Summer. So I went and bought Hellmann's "light" Mayonnaise, among other things like fruits and veggies. As soon as I opened up the jar, I could tell by the … [Read more...]

I'm on Facebook!! Isn't everyone on it anyway? At first I didn't think I would be hooked but I am. I'm truly ADDICTED! I was also happy when I was told that you can personalize your spot with your own name too. I think it makes it unique, unlike Myspace. So, don't forget to follow my blog and friend me! http://www.facebook.com/newyorkchica Thanks! … [Read more...]

I couldn't believe the words my mom said to me last night while I was at her house. She said, "Michael Jackson died!" I said what!? What are you talking about? Farrah Fawcett is the one that died today. She said watch the news, they found him with no pulse and they couldn't revive him. As soon as she said that, I turned on the tv and went online. I saw on TMZ that indeed he did die. I was shocked! I could not believe it! I never knew the man but I grew up listening to his music and … [Read more...]
