It’s On! “Sassy” Slim Time

Um, I’m moving to Miami. Like next week– commence hyperventilation. I’ll soon be in a bikini on a regular basis, and if that’s not scary enough, keep in mind that this will be going on all. year. long. I feel like I’m back in Brazil, except for the fact that then I was in my […]

Does Everyone Hate My Gladiator FitFlops?

I don’t have them yet, but I will soon– but I haven’t been reading very good things about them at all. Not in terms of performance, mind you, but about the appearance. While I’ll admit I don’t have any designs on the white ones, I still covet the snake version. I think I agree […]

Tasty Carrot Juice

I have an aversion to carrot juice, but knowing how good it is for me only makes me feel worse when I whip up a blender of undrinkable stuff. I’m really, really bad at mixing up tasty blended beverages, and that includes any veggie-drink, so I headed off on a search of pre-made veg drinks […]

Healthy Eating: Give Me Back My Tomatoes

Yay! Great news for tomato lovers who love their lycopene. . . the FDA has removed that pesky tomato health warning and has shown that salmonella cases have been irradicated from those in fields and stores.
It’s just too bad that I adore my spicy peppers as well, since there is still a warning placed on […]

Miracle Food (and Snack): Acai

I am in love with acai, and since I haven’t been in Brazil for awhile, I wasn’t sure how I could get my hands on it. Acai has omega-3, 6, and 9s and is pumped with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory. But now that I have been searching for ways to take advantage of this tasty treat, […]

New Fitflops!

I’m a little bit in love with the new gladiator Fit Flops, and even though I did read that they were super popular in the UK, i”m not sure how this new style is going to go down here. According to the “Gym Built In” principles, these shoes magically tone your legs and make it […]

Plus Gear Pick

Here’s a top pick for you from Junonia… as you know, I’m always trying to find plus items that really work. Since my ankle socks regularly cut off my circulation, these ones are a great choice: they feature cushioned soles and a moisture-wicking fabric. Buying plus-size socks might seem unusual, but having your feet feel […]

And I Concur: Best Sports Bra for Women

I have to agree with one of SheFinds.com’s choices for the best sports bra out there: the Natori is supreme. And I thought that Champion was good! This one is particularly special because it combines the usual lift-and-separate technique along with supreme support that’s perfect for low/medium impact exercises like walking and cyling. Since this […]
