Welcome To NYC Fit Post!
October 1, 2009
I wouldn’t call myself an expert or a guru…just someone interested in staying healthy, looking good and feeling great.
It’s important for me to maintain a balanced lifestyle because there isn’t just one thing that brings me complete fulfillment – it’s everything put together. I want the seven mile run with the sweaty Bikram yoga session plus be able to have time to meet friends for drinks all while planning out a long weekend trip to Beijing…what can I say, I want it all! Living and working in Manhattan makes it possible to get more done by 8am than most can achieve by 8pm – I have learned to maximize my time and more importantly, my energy.
Since, as I have already stated, I am not a fitness professional or any kind of time management consultant, I learn by trial and error. Experimenting with different foods, ideas and tricks makes it easy to tailor my life to exactly what works best for ME. I’ll happily dig into a late night cheesecake from Billy’s Bakery and still find motivation to wake up at 3:30am to run a Half Marathon because I have balance.
In the coming weeks, I’ll write about my favorite recipes, workouts, stores and yoga classes – plus anything else I pick up from living in New York to help you leverage into a healthier more balanced life.
Love the articles. Would only suggest that you somehow add the grams of fat & cholesterol and any other stats for the receipes you have. For those who love to eat right, exercise but still have health issues that must be addressed. Might want to add an article on the importance of wearing the correct support clothing. Especially important for the well endowed women. Keep up the good work.
I found your blog through someone becoming a fan on Facebook- and it’s great! Keep up the great work!
But along the lines of your healthy finds… have you ever heard of Shakeology, the healthiest meal of the day? It’s not just a protein shake, but much more. And you can only get it through a Beachbody coach- but it is great for a meal on-the-go or a snack replacement. The chocolate flavor is to DIE for. For more info:

I would love to see a review of it here!
