90210 Recap

Season Premiere 90210 on 1/24/2011

So I absolutely LOVE 90210!!  Last night was the season premiere and (as usual) they brought it in with a bang!  I don’t even know where to begin!  Teddy…I knew he was gay from the beginning.  His commitment issues with women were a DEAD giveaway.  I know he and Silver dated and he may have liked her but they never seemed 100% into it.  Speaking of Silver, why is she SMASHING ALL THE HOMIES???  Tristan, Teddy and now Navid?  I wonder how she’s going react when she finds out Teddy likes men!  Next, I am soooooo glad Naomi whooped Mr. Cannons you know what!  And she was giving it to him too.  She could’ve killed him, and plead emotional insanity and grave depression due to the rape.  Do you think her sister will resurface?  I mean she does have a child to raise right.  I wonder will Adriana’s child will come up in the midst of all her drama.  Poor girl.  She should’ve known her manager would stab her in the back.  Charlie (who is played by Diana Ross’ son Evan Ross) is such a cutie.  He’s like all grown up from his role in ATL.  Although I’m glad that he and Liam were able to make up, poor Annie is now stuck.  She smashed the homie too!  There were a few people missing in this episode.  Oscar, Ivy’s Mom (I mean she did almost die).  Lastly the cousin, I’m not sure about her yet.  This season should be interesting to say the least.  I cannot wait until next Monday. 

I’ll be giving my review of The Game in the morning.  Happy Tuesday!

Building A New ME!!

In 2004 I started college.  I'm sure most of you have hear of the "Freshman 20."  Well I didn't have that problem.  As a matter of fact I stayed consistent with my weight throughout undergrad.  It wasn't until 2008 that I really started gaining weight, and now finding myself almost 200lbs!  This is the biggest I've ever been!  So I'm on a journey to re-invent myself!  So this is day one and I'm hoping that you will help me stick to my regimen!

1/13/2011 Weight: 195.6lbs. Goal: 150lbs. 6 months. 

PLEASE HELP!

So I started this morning with a hearty breakfast that consisted of egg whites, turkey bacon, rice and my Proteini!!  So I know what you're thinking...the rice.  (smile).  It's early in the day so I have time to burn those calories off!  Now, what's on your mind next...That Proteini? Yeah it's my very own way to add more protein to my diet.  Protien is hard to incorporate but this "tini" does so in a delicious way and here is the recipe:

Materials:
One scoop of whey protein (or any powder protein)
2/3 cup of apple juice
1/2 cup of Naked Brand Juice2 cups of ice
1 Martini Shaker

Pour ice, apple juice, Naked Brand Juice and scoop of powder in to shaker. Shake for 30-40 seconds.  Pour into martini glass and enjoy!  Naked Brand Juices are 100% Juice and can be found at most grocery stores.  (Makes to servings if using martini glass).

This drink will help to control your appetite, making you feel fuller.  Try it out ladies and let me know what you think! 

Wish me luck!

Politically Me Pt. 1

When I was in school I made it a point to wake watching CNN and go to sleep watching CNN.  I think that everyone should be in the know about what's going on in the world.  Everything that happens around us effects our everyday lives.  Every now and then I get an itch to turn on the news.  Lately I've been into Illinois politics.  I live here, I grew up here and for as long as I can remember Illinois has had gruesome political practices.  Check out my Fabu-BASH of 'Gov.' Pat Quinn.  I cannot believe this man.  67% Tax increase...REALLY?  SMH...Time to go...

Oh yes, and you can also comment on the Lace Wigs too...SMH..

My New Years Eve!

So the day started out with a lot of running.  First it was the grocery store.  I had to prepare Taco Dip and Rotel.  Well there were only two lines open at Food For Less.  What I though would be a quick 30-minute trip turned into 2 hours!  How bout that.  When I finally got the groceries it was on to Famous.  The local liquor store.  To my surprise, my time spent there was not what I anticipated I was in and out.  So two runs down, one to go.  The search for party favors!  Total stores visited: 5!  YES! 5 stores.  Just for a chamagne glasses, noise makers, and poppers.  Who would've thought?  Oh...I bet you're wondering what I did...well I spent the night with the Sassy Wife (author of Sassy Wife Chronicles http://www.sassymahoganywife.com/).  Boy was it a night!  The best view of Chicago:

It was cloudy but I was able to see the fireworks PERFECTLY!  The night started with Tequila shots...and ended with me on the couch at 9:30 am New Years Day asking for some more hot wings!  Everything in between went so fast (WINK) that I don't remember (WINK).  Although I wasn't at the club, wasn't with ALL of my ladies, didn't get that infamous NYE kiss...I had the time of my life!  With my family!

HAPPY NEW YEARS!
