Image Makeover is now on youtube! In our first video, Grace shows you how to get a great glam look for a night out. Using rollers to get body and movement and how to get that sexy smokey eye look. you can watch the video here:

As for the diet, Grace has been doing really well and doesn't have much more to go, I on the other hand will need some more time. According to my scale at home, I have lost about 7-8 pounds. This is great motivation and will keep me on track. I have about 23 more to go. I'm finding that working out is really helping me stay focused when I feel like eating a loaf of bread. This program has really helped me find other things to eat when I get that snacking feeling. I used to turn to chips or chocolate, and now I turn to green peppers or cherry tomatoes or even snow peas! I have to admit that I did cheat Tuesday when I went out with friends and had nachos. I instantly felt like crap and I know I over ate. Thats another thing I'm learning, once I'm hungry I need to stop eating. I am more motivated than ever now and I am committed to being healthy and to looking and feeling great!

January blues

So it's a new year and the holiday season wasn't exactly easy on our figures. It's too bad all of those wonderful foods are not healthy too. So Grace and I are doing the Ideal Protein diet to help shed some of those pounds. It is only the third day of the diet and it is getting easier. This is the first real diet I have done.  I mean I have tried to do the healthy eating thing but it only lasts about a day or two and then I'm back to wings and beer come Saturday. Grace did this diet last year and it seemed like the extra holiday pounds just melted off, and that is why I have decided to do this one. I really like that Bob, who runs the program, goes through everything with you to make sure everything is understood and it will be a safe weight loss process. Everything is clear about what I can eat and what I can't and that makes it really easy. I am also using my wii at home to burn some calories. I am surprised at how much I actually sweat while dancing and boxing!

So I hate to do this but I think it will be a great motivator for me and that is, posting my weight here and what I hope to get to. So as of Tuesday January 4 I weigh 154 lbs. The heaviest I have ever been. And my goal is 125 lbs. or less.

 This week's beauty tip is oro fluido. If you have been in the salon lately I'm sure you have heard us talking about it. It's a beauty elixir for your hair that adds moisture, shine and helps protect the hair. It also speeds drying time and you can use it to style your hair once it's dry! Oro fluido is perfect for this time of year because hair is drier and doesn't shine like it does in the summer. Put some life back into your hair and give oro fluido a try. Just ask about it next time you're in.
