This morning I weighed the same as yesterday. Looks like this is the number to keep! Once I’m done with the HCG Phase, I have to maintain within 2 pounds of this number or I have to do something to fix it. Shoutout to hellojody.com, a blog by a woman who is now doing the HCG…

Around the Fitness Horn: FOOD
My interest in food and diet waxes and wanes, some days I’m all about paleo, others I’m more about moderation. I’m working on an article about cleansing, and discovering some interesting things. Will post it when it’s written. In the meantime, check out these: The Road to Digestive Health Continues (More things that might be…
Blog Action Day: WATER
Blog Action Day is an annual event that unites the world’s bloggers in posting about the same issue on the same day. This year, the focus is WATER. I freakin’ love water. I love to drink it (at least 8 glasses a day), I love to bathe in it, I love to swim in it,…

For the month of October, join me and give up toxins in your beauty products!

Around the CrossFit Horn
A selection of my fave CrossFit and happy food posts from around the interwebs: Should there be weight classes for CrossFit? Pint-sized powerhouse Jen Cardella weighs in here. “Stop trying to Rx, you look like a pooping dog” (my translation) from Boone Putney at CrossFit Austin. Mail-order Grass-Fed Beef from Wall Street Journal (wonder how…
“Awkward Capri”
I often find funny keywords that led people to this site in my google analytics, but rarely does one of those end up in my “Top Searches” section! Enter “awkward capri.” … Now, I know for certain that I don’t WEAR awkward capris. Hell, I barely even wear capris, unless it’s for yoga and/or they’re…
Redesign!
What say you, interwebs? To accommodate the Austin and Aspen posts, I thought it’d be prudent to have three posts displaying in the primetime spot on the site. If you RSS read, you do not probably care. If you don’t, however, hello!! Since the new design is all suave-eh, say adios to my sweet but…
More fame (no fortune)
My star is rising, people. The amazing, uber-talented Mel Joulwan (whose blog, I might add, is worth checking out for top-notch Paleo recipes, creative workouts, and Mel’s great sense of humor) blogged about me–what a sweetheart! She says you gotta meet me 🙂 Thanks, Mel! Also, this pic of me doing ring dips was on…
You can stop hearing about CrossFit now …
Well, that’s probably a lie. But I’ve started an entirely separate blog just about my training for CrossFit, so I’ll at least be mentioning CrossFit LESS on this blog … Check me out: www.xlyssa.com You can now return to your regularly scheduled life in Austin updates.
Weekend Fashion & Shopping
Friday, Saturday, Sunday … it’s a shopaholics’ (or casual fashionista’s) fantasty! Saturday: Runway to Heaven fashion show I’ll be live-blogging/tweeting my reactions to the show up onto the wall behind the models as they walk down the runway, so this is going to be super cool. But what will I wear?! Friday: 2ND Street District…
