This edition of keeping it real, brought to you by Kate. It's not all Red Carpets and nights on the town for these mamas. It's actually mostly nights at home, and vaccuuming carpets if you want to keep it real. But fortunately, we have found a way to get out every once in a while, and this weekend is one of them. Yea Ellie Fund Oscar Night Gala! However this Red Carpet prep work? Yikes. Have you any idea what the celebs torture themselves with go through to prepare for the Oscars? Fasts, back breaking workouts with celebrity trainers, and worse-laxative teas?! Ewww...spare me the deets, lest I lose my appetite (on second thought.....). No magic potions, we like the old fashioned eat right and exercise. Rumor has it even Christina (our resident waif!) is hitting the treadmill! So while you may not ever confuse me for
or
you may recognize this gal, out barely awake and struggling happily out jogging at 6 am through town.
Yep. That's me, absolutely not Red Carpet ready, but keeping it real. Real warm that it is. The thermometer read 10 degrees when I left this am. That's a one and a zero people. And that would be two pairs of pants, two fleece jackets, one vest and a long sleeve tops I'm sporting. How about those ski gloves? Haute? Probably not. Hot? Just barely.
Do you have a big event you're getting ready for? Try using these healthy tips from FitSugar, and leave the laxative teas at the drug store.
I wonder how many people use events, say a wedding, gala, reunion, to motivate them to drop a few pounds/get in shape versus people who try to stay fit year round for no reason what so ever? Big events just don't do it for me, I'm a year rounder. And by "round"...
