Fit is in

Dont get it twisted I want to be fit not skinny! When I look at magazines I look for abs and definition. That's my ideal body type not like a body builder but a fit physique. That's it xoxoxo Izzy 

I Love Pepsi, but I had to quit her!!!

I was a pepsi fanstic beleive it or not! Some people drink coffee I drink pepsi. I drank it Morning, Noon and Night. So its actually surprising to me that I have stoped cold turky like that. Its been 4 months i cant lie i have probably had it 3 tomes on seperate accations in that 4 months but I have not since. I have replaced pepsi with water my other love (especially when its ice cold) so it was mot too hard to switch orange juice, V8splash and smoothies. It's always good to keep hydrated with water I am always filli g my water bottle up from the water at my works cooler. I know I get more than 8 glasses a day which I heard is a good thing.


So I have been on a healthy kick for a while and although I love Pepsi very much I had to quit her. It was bitter sweet but it had to be done :( Pepsi is just no good for my belly fat. Yes I'm trying to get that six pack back it's been an up and down battle and I have been losing. On a good note I have managed to lose 3 pounds and keep it off all due to a good healthy diet (fruits, veggies, green smoothies and yogurt)on an even better note I have lost and kept off 10 pounds from January 2011 when I first started my journey back when gym girl flow was no joke!

I haven't yet rejoined a gym. I do miss my fitness classes dearly and I know they would speed up my goal of toning up paired with my healthy eating. I did however get a copy of P90x from my cousin who said it actually worked for her and her husband and I have seen the results they are two gym fanatics. I just need to get motivated to start the work out videos just like any work out regiment I need some motivation. Also some time and space to work out to these videos. When I get home from work all I want to do us watch a little TV then go to sleep. I need to replace the TV with a P90x routine then go to bed I am sure I would sleep wonderfully  well operation shrink belly and replace with 6pack or 4 pack abs is underway. I will keep who ever is interested posted. That's all xoxoxo Izzy 

I Love free spirted strong women

Frida Kahlo de Rivera (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954)


I Love a free spirited strong woman and Frida Kahlo embodies this. I saw the movie Frida a couple months back and thought the movie was great. Selma Hayek did a great job Portraying Frida Kahlo an artist and activist that through many different struggles and obstacles only became strong overtime. I wish I had seen this movie sooner I really enjoyed it and I definitely recommend it. I wish I met her she just seemed so interesting.

"I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality."

What to do when your Gym membership expires???

So a couple months ago my gym membership expired they were asking for some crazy amount to renew it so I said Forget about! I also know that in summer time it’s harder for me to go to the gym I just want to be outdoors enjoying the nice weather. So I decided to do things that would help me burn calories and enjoy the weather. Walking in the city is a fun, lots of things to see and before you know it you have walked over a mile.

My friends and I walked up and down Newbury street

Just the right portion. a treat fom Sweet cupcakes



Stopped in at Johnny cupcakes my friend got her man a T-shirt from there.



Get out and walk and keep it interesting......That's it xoxoxoxo <3 IZZY

The writting on the wall

Have you ever stopped and looked at the writting on the wall?

Providence RI

Lowell MA

I thought this was funny because the street looked so clean and nice with its cobble stones and all and this was so random I had to take a picture.

Providence RI

Some call it Gaffitti I call it art. In October I went to an art show called Idle Construction at Lot F Gallery. with my Cuzzo neek and the pieces were amazing! here is a taste of what I saw:

These two were my Favorite!

More Sushi

Yes More sushi! I went to this Place called Haruki with my girls on sunday in Providence RI. Supercute sushi spot! The drinks were good and so was the sushi. I also experianced and tried edamame (the green things in the brown bowl) I did not know how to eat them at first but I soon learned they were not bad but I wasalso starving. I threw dowm my Miso soup and dogged a lot of edamame while waiting for my sushi.

Thinking Skinny (Gym Girl Flow is no joke!)

So since January I have been going hard at the gym and eating healthy at first I started this to get bikini ready for my girl’s bachelorette in Miami. But my diet and gym flow is starting to become a lifestyle and I am loving it. I am feeling healthy and starting to feel fit. I am also happy I started this in winter because we tend to eat more in the winter months. All these foods and smoothies I am eating and drinking can be carried over to the summer. June will be the month the moment of truth bikini or no bikini and will I be happy in that bikini I have lost 10 pounds so far pretty much the 10 pounds I gained from last winter. I want to lose some more and then turn it into straight muscle. I will keep you posted and stay on my Gym Girl Flow  and keep thinking skinny and focus on fit. That’s it xoxoxoxo Izzy

PS: In January I posted a blog called Gym Flow in it I tlked about my work out and eating being a 4 week routine mainly because I wanted to look good on my birthday this has since become a four month routine and further a lifestyle routine.
