Welcome!
Hey, people!
My name is Mary and I'm a New Yorker. I wish the description stopped there, but really...I'm a New Yorker that lives just outside Philly during the summer. As if that wasn't enough for you to handle, I'm also coming in hot after a cool four months spent abroad in London. So, to recap...I'm a New Yorker twice-removed, honorary Pennsylvanian, and wannabe ex-Pat. Wheeew! I can't even keep it straight sometimes-so don't feel overwhelmed.
Anyways, welcome to what hopefully will be a helpful and inspiring blog for you to live healthily and happily. My summer internship at news station FOX29 allows a few days off, so I'm taking advantage of the time I have each week to whip up some recipes that are wholesome and filling--but totally guilt-free! I've always been a pretty mindful eater, but after my semester of "no rules eating," I knew it was time to buckle it on down and get to work.
I have to say that my dad Bruce really inspired me to make a change. He took his health into serious consideration after not feeling his best-and has seen amazing results. Special thanks always to my mom Teresa who so diligently makes his meals and taught me how to make the basics like shakes and breakfast cakes to get started. These two are the reason that I knew I could do it!
So, I've always been an active person, working out almost every day of the week. The way it makes me feel is indescribable-but I didn't know how good it would feel when I started really watching what I ate. The feeling is double what it was before, and now I feel unstoppable. I hope that this blog can help you get there too--and if you're already feelin' fantastic, go you! Let's maintain a healthy lifestyle together!
Look here for words of motivation, recipes that are a cinch (usually) to whip up, and ways to pump up your workout! I'll also be sharing some music that gets me inspired from time to time.
Cheers to being healthy and fit...
Let's eat and be Mary.
