I am back!

Hello to all,
I was away for a couple of months working on my book. I am glad to say that my book is called "I Hate Whitey" which is a nutrition & weight loss book has been released and can be purchase at Amazon.com. It's talking about white flour, white sugar, white rice (hence the title "I Hate Whitey"). It also talks about chemicals that are added to the foods we eat that produce weight gain, sickness and disease. I am excited about this book because it is different from any other nutrition and weight loss book out there. Everyone knows how passionate I am about helping others live there best life. Please go to Amazon.com take a peak inside the book and leave me a review of what you think. I will be doing a book signing in Brooklyn, NY soon and will let you all know when and the location. I am glad to be back! Continue to read my blog and add me to your social page. Thanks a Bunch for your support!

Why You Need To Buy & Eat Organic

Lately on the news it's been reported that by eating Tomatoes more than 400 people have been infected with Salmonella. This is not the first time that foods that we eat from around the world have been contamiated. We have to understand that when we buy foods that are not organic we are taking a risk with our health. Most mass production of produce are not watch carefully to make sure that the produce are safe to eat. Instead we see chemicals on the ground where the fruits & vegetables grow, and we also have workers not washing there hands when coming from the rest rooms. All these bacterias are then pass on to our produce and this is why people get Salmonella. When you buy organic you are gaurenteed that the food is certified and safe for you to eat. This means that there are no chemicals in the ground or sprayed on the produce. I always eat organic and I never had any problems with my food. If buying organic is too expensive for you try buying organic foods when on sale. If you can't afford it just use some vinegar and lemon to clean off pesticide and germs off your fruits & vegetables. Remember buy organic to be healthy.

Green Fashion Education

We as people must educate ourselves about the clothes that we buy. We know that many fabrics are really bad for the environment. Cotton is one of the most heavily sprayed crops and Textiles dyes pollute our water. Also, many synthetic fabrics are made from petroleum a non reusable resource. ECO Friendly materials is one of the "Hottest Trend" in making clothing from. Fabrics from earth friendly natural sustainable materials are being turn into sheik fashion. We must remember that your skin is your biggest organ and we must protect it. When we buy clothes that is not ECO Friendly we take the risk of having these toxic chemicals go right into our skin. Today there are so many ECO designers that make clothing that are affordable for every budget like: Linda Loudermilk, Anna Cohen, Lela Rose, and Peter Som just to name a few. So go out and treat your skin to a ECO Luxe outfit. Your body and the environment will thank you for it.

Kids Gone Wild!

Do you have a kid who embaress you in front of guests in the home and out in public, Do you have a kid who screams for no reason or talk back to you, or do you have a kid that says "I Hate You". All of the above situations are children who are displaying inappropraite behaviors. As a Certified Family Teacher who have years experience working with kids, only show inappropraite behaviors when a kid feels like he/she is not getting enough attention. Sometimes this can mean that one child is being favored by the parents and the other child is feeling left out. In any case whether you have one child or more always show that you care by teaching to your kids whether the behavior is positive or negative. Here is a example:Whenever a kid misbehave for so long and then do good, immediately praise he or she for it. When this is done it builds up the their self esteem and the child will continue to do good to receive the attention from the parent. Here is another example: When a child does bad show empathy by saying "John I know you were upset but when I was talking to Betty you were pulling on my pants". You let John know that his behavior was inappropraite and give him the a description of the appropraite behavior on how to get mommy's attention next time. Try this simple assignment like the one above and watch the difference in your kid.

Home for the Holidays

Memorial weekend was a holiday were most Americans stayed at home. On CNN they stated that 80% of Americans stayed at home, and 1% traveled by plane. There was also less people driving on the roads, and less people traveling by bus and train. Due to the high prices of gas people are refusing to pay those prices at the pump. This is a great opportunity to turn your home into a wonderful vacation or become a tourist in your own town. So go all out and turn that pool area into a deserted island, or turn that backyard into a music camp ground where you invite your friends and family over put a tent up, make some smores and sing songs into the middle of the night. Get creative, have fun and make the best out of every moment.

Mother's Day Afternoon Tea

Today I threw a Afternoon Tea for my mother, sisters and sister in law (all who are mother's). I thought it would be nice to honor my mom and all my sisters who are moms with a wonderful Tea Party. The menu consist of egg salad sandwiches, chicken salad sandwiches, ham and cheese sandwiches, strawberry bellini's, red velvet cupcakes w/ pink buttercream frosting, mini pecan sandie and chocolate chip cookies, mini cheesecake w/ raspberry sauce, coconut macaroons w/ dark chocolate drizzle on top and tea and coffee. They were blown away by the presentation of the six vases w/ roses arrange on the table as a centerpiece and also it was given as a party favor to my guests. Once everyone ate we played games and gave away prizes to the winners (everyone left with a prize). The food was great, the desserts were delicious and everyone had so much fun. This day turn out to be a success that my guests will remember.

Making Smart Choices

I know that alot of times we want to eat what we want without being bother by others or the government. The reason why the government, restaurants and supermarkets are giving you information about the ingredients that are inside of your food is to make you responsible for your health. We know that trans fat, high fructose corn syrup, refined white flour and sugar just to name a few are not good for your health.

So let us all stop blaming the government and everybody else for our weight gain. Make better choices by educating your self by choosing foods you can pronounce on the labels. And last, by combining exercise, eating healthy, and being positive equals a healthy lifestyle.
