My Story: Getting Into the Fit Mentality
Posted June 5th, 2009 by Mona Liza ReyesOne thing I really struggled with when I made the decision to lead a fit and active life was maintaining relationships with people who were used to the old me—the carefree girl who preferred spontaneity and partying to routines and workouts. What they didn’t understand was that my decision impacted all aspects of my life, not just the time I spent at the gym. And to accomplish the goals I set for myself, I needed a change in mind, not just a change in body.
You absolutely need to surround yourself with positive influences and keep an upbeat, can-do attitude to achieve your goals. Chances are, friends and family may not be the most supportive-tempting you with familiar foods or activities that are not a part of your new lifestyle, making fun of the time you spend on working out, or not supporting you in your new decisions. But there is a reason they are part of your life, and you are part of theirs. So by being patient and keeping the lines of communication open, you can save your relationships and keep making progress in your quest to be fit.
Make it a Salad Summer
Posted June 1st, 2009 by Mona Liza ReyesSummer is a terrific time to take advantage of lots of nutritious foods that are in season. To truly make the most of this opportunity and maximize health benefits, consider packing (or carefully purchasing) a salad for lunch! A salad every day may sound boring, but you can jazz it up with fresh fruit, vegetables, and small amounts of nuts to make a flavorful treat. Salads are also an excellent way to introduce new foods or foods you may not want to eat on their own, such as spinach or kale.

Posted March 29th, 2010 by eileenjoyYes, I did it again. PR's are awesome aren't they? The Inaugural Oakland Running Festival was a small and fun race. The hills weren't that bad, in fact, I charged up them as fast as my little legs could carry me. I think I was good until mile 16, by then we lost Alex (before mile 10), Francis was feeling strong so Janette stayed with me cause she could see that I was struggling. Actually, she said my eyes started glazing and she didn't think it was a good thing.
