Good stuff!!
Hey Lisa-
It's Lisa from NJ. Huge fan and I know you love finding new low calorie food and so do I. So get this. The lady I work for is on this new diet from "Medi Clinic" its not the Medi Fast, it's different. She goes to this medical place and they give her b12 shots and weigh her. In 2 months she lost 40lbs and looks so much happier so she keeps updating me on all the cool low carb low calorie food she's been finding. She gave me a little zip-lock bag of her newest obsession...powdered peanut butter. You mix two tablespoons powder with one tablespoon water and its effing AMAZING. I put it in my protein shake after a work out...omg...holy peanuts, it's fabulous. I saved like 160 calories right there..oh, and it comes in chocolate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Lisa,
Just checked your website, as I do daily, and I’m
so glad to see you had a great weekend! I have a general question about some
foods, I guess in better words, “your husbands food finds” to be
exact! I want to start going meat-less with my diet, however, I was wondering
about some great food ideas! I know your husband is vegetarian, and I was
wondering where you find ideas for daily meals (lunch & dinner) for him,
and maybe where he might find his own ideas. I know of basic stuff like salad
and such – but salads get awful boring to me after awhile! I’m
afraid to buy the packaged vegetarian foods in the freezer section, as I’ve
bought some before and it was a complete waste because it was not the tastiest
stuff. I would rather get someone’s opinion before I buy a whole box of
stuff! If you could help, I’d really appreciate it! Thank you so much –
I hope you have a great week and I can’t wait for the long weekend ahead
either! Yay!

Hiiii Cecelia-
Stu eats a lot Morningstar farm stuff. We love the chicken grillers, patties, turkey burgers, soy nuggets and wings. We'll usually nuke up a couple of patties and add salsa, guacamole, grilled peppers and onions, etc to them. We also like the flat out wraps (or LaTortilla Factory low carb wraps) to make pizzas. Just add sauce, low fat cheese and veggies. Bake @ 350 for 10 mns. So good. I've been making Stu a great bean salad with chick peas, kidney beans, crumbled feta and balsamic dressing. He LOVES that. Good source of protein too. We do a lot of soy dogs, salads, whole wheat pasta, etc. If I think of any more eats, I'll email ya!Hope this helps a little-Lisa
ANY other ideas you guys have for Cecelia, comment below! Thanks dolls!
I was just in Cherry Hill Mall, and though what the heck, let me just check Macy's, they have Chanel BIKINI PEACH!!!!!! I got one and I love it! They had a few more so get there girl!!!!

Hooray! I guess the Macy's around me aren't cool enough to carry this GORGEOUS color.
Enjoy it.
RUNNERS FEVER
Nice. Sounds so athletic and professional.
Shout out to Melissa. This was the email I received from her a few days ago. She's a newbie half marathoner too!!
Hey Lisa!!!!
I couldn't help but to write to you. So I am a HUGE follower of yours via your blog! Believe it or not I was at the country music marathon in TN this past weekend too! I'm from PA and I went with my friends from Delaware!! We never met before and where ever I was down there I looked for you and Stu, sis/bf, but came up short. I guess considering there were thousands upon thousands of people there that was a shot in the dark! So I write to you because you can not stop talking about the run and I'm soo the same way! That was my first half marathon and the most I ran before this was 8 miles. But this was def. the best experience ever. I absolutely loved how there were lots of people cheering you on combined with all the bands!!! That all made the race seem painless! And I must saying crossing the finish line gave me goosebumps. One of the guys I went with is a marathon runner and I told him how I just want to run in all these races now and he said I have what they call "runners fever" so I think it's safe to say you have it too, haha. Looking at the brochure that came in the goody bag with all the other rock n roll marathons just makes me sooo excited- I just want to goo to them all!!!! Oh also I am a manager at a shoe store and I love your shoe of choice the lunar glides and lunar elites!! Take care and happy running!!!
Melissa
The countdown to Broad St is on! Only 3 days left. I can't wait to run this with my sister, Liv, Lori and Nicole.
Oh, and the carb loading, I can't wait for that either. We're gonna do serious damage at La Stalla in Newtown Saturday night. Pass me another slice of bread please :0)
If our stories don't inspire you, maybe this will.
I got my Lunarglides yesterday. They are fabulous!

Hi Julie-Congrats on your new puppy. I know exactly how you feel. When we first got Phoebe we were a little overwhelmed ourselves. The key is to keep your dog in his crate and don't feel bad putting him in your basement if you have to. He'll have to learn how to deal with being left alone. If you don't hear the whining, crying and begging every night, you won't feel as bad. Since Phoebe is the queen bee around here, she sleeps with us, but Miles absolutely LOVES his crate. He happily goes in (because he knows he'll get a treat). In the morning when I go downstairs to let him out, it sometimes takes him a few minutes to emerge from his crate. He stretches, yawns, and takes his time. We made his crate super comfy with pillows and a down blanket. I don't blame him for not wanting to come out right away. Hopefully this helps. Your dog will eventually get over it. Golden's are the best. I grew up with them. Best breeds around (besides pugs of course).
Good luck!
Lisa
Hi Summer-
That's a good question. I personally wouldn't do it, but I'm sure it's okay. Something about running milk through that machine doesn't sound appealing to me. Kinda gross actually. He might just have to do it the old fashion way, and dare I say, break out a powdered packet??!!
Who runs milk through their keurig???? Summer wants to know. Comment below. Thanks guys!
"We got a Keurig"!!!!
-my friend Danielle via text message
I got her text Saturday afternoon with the big news! Looks like Dan isn't the only one on the Keurig bandwagon.
Hey Lisa,
my favorite flavor (so far) is glazed chocolate donut. LOVE.
I like variety

Ladies, Dana needs our help!! Read below. Any suggestions????
LISA!!!!
I need some help asap!!!! I am getting married this Saturday, January 16th. I am sooo excited. I am having my makeup done at Nordstrom in KOP. Diane from smashbox is awesome and she is going to be doing my makeup and my moms and I am going to make small haha large purchase while I am there on new makeup for my honeymoon and there after for the season. But here is my dilemma...I cannot find a lotion/body mist/perfume to wear on my wedding day. I have tried so many different stores and perfumes and bath and body works etc and I cannot find that perfect scent for my special day...Any ideas? I hope you can recommend something I want to go out and buy something tonight or this week...thanks so much.
♥ xoxo Dana
Congrats Dana!! How exciting. I love a good wedding. As far as perfume goes, I'm not devoted to one particular scent. I switch mine up a lot. Lately I've been back and forth between Tom Ford's Black Orchid and D&G Light Blue. I also really like Coco Chanel's Modemoiselle too. It's feminine and classic. If I were you, I'd hit Ulta, Sephora, Macy's, any place that sells perfume, and start sniffin'. Don't forget the lotion either. It's all about layering for serious staying power! I'm sure you'll get some great leads from my reader's suggestions. They're awesome at giving advise! Keep us updated on what you decide.
Here comes the bride, all dressed white (in my case it was ivory)...teee heee ;0)
