Fitness Cures a Broken Heart. Advice from My Healing Heart to Yours.
18Jul
2012
The video speaks for itself. This is how I deal with sadness from a broken heart...
I tried making a "talking" video but I kept breaking down. So I decided to use these signs instead and spare you the tears and sniffles.
Sweating is a healthier way to cry and I hope my story convinces you of that, and helps you through any kind of similar situation...not that I wish it upon you. Heartbreak is truly the worst. Everything'll Be Alright (the song you hear playing in the background) is by my friend Joshua Radin. I always turn to it whenever I need reminding of this very message. It's a good one, isn't it?
Thanks for watching and agreeing to support eachother when sad times hit.
Please leave me a comment below and tell me how you cope through heartbreak. Feel free to share the good and the bad, like I did.

My full time job really does entail covering fitness fashion & trends.
In case you don't know my story or how I left a career that afforded me Helmut Lang moto-jackets, Jimmy Choo pumps and purses, and a walk-in closet to keep them all in, then you can quickly read about that HERE.
I feel blessed to say that I have the job and company of my dreams. I wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world (even if I can no longer afford the "extras"). Wanna know why? Well, because every day is an adventure.
Leave it to Bliss.com to outline a day in my "active" life where the line between work, passion and pasttime is most definitely blurred. Check it out and click the link below!

I Dissed Norma Kamali's Outfit on Facebook and Learned a Valuable Lesson
29Jun
2012
So here's what went down...
I saw a picture of Norma Kamali sporting a fitness getup from her collection for Opening Ceremony that I wasn't digging.
I made a comment about it on the MizzFIT Facebook page. Lo and behold, the next day there's an email from her in my inbox. Ahhh, F*@K me! It took me a solid hour to bolster up the courage to open up it. Was she pissed? Would she blackball me from all her stores? Would she summon her fashionista squad to stone me to death...or worse, ban me from wearing her clothes?
I finally opened it (with my eyes closed).
In her email, Norma acknowledged my comments about the functionality of her garb, but backed it up by saying that she designs for the modern woman who likes to express herself in creative, comfortable and cost effective ways. She said she's proud of her designs and wanted me to look at her transitional fitness apparel in a different way...keeping in mind her mission.
Norma had me at "hello, I'm taking the...

Q.Everyone in fashion knows you are a wellness advocate and innovator. How does it feel to represent more than just fashion?
A.
Fashion has a powerful effect on the way someone feels and performs. Fitness and health builds self esteem and supports a strong image. There is no way you can separate the two. I believe fashion always looks better on someone who feels good about themselves.
Q.At what point in your life did you become interested and seriously committed to fitness?
A.
1980...I was thirty-five and wanting to go out less especially every night dancing, which was typical of the 70's. So working out was my next choice. I did all types of activities including running and fast walking.
Q.You design clothes that can be worn fashionably for fitness. What do you consider the most important elements of sportswear?
A.
Modern fabrics that move with the body and that are easy to care for.
Q.If you could only work out in 1 thing from one of your collections, what...
Elizabeth Banks Divulges on Fitness and Working Out with Hubby

Today, at the NYC screening of the film People Like Us in which she stars, Elizabeth Banks answered my question about how fitness "fits" into her life. This was her response...
I always feel better after I work out. It takes my brain to a very clear place. Also, my husband and I do it together...its great for our relationship. I have a very beautiful, hot trainer. She comes to my house and trains me and my husband, and when I'm not there he still gets to have her come over. He's just winning winning winning!
Sounds like Mr. Banks has it pretty good sweating it up with Elizabeth AND their hottie trainer!!!
This screening was hosted by TheMoms, 2 of my gorge friends and mommy-media stars. It was very cool to get to hear Elizabeth speak about the film and her real life role as a mom.
Here's some great insight into Elizabeth Banks and why she's so f-ing cool (based on what I heard and witnessed today):
She married her highschool sweetheart.
