Picky and Healthy

Since I did a much better job at documenting the second half of my year (since I started this blog!) part II is going to be divided into 2 parts.

Here’s July through September!

I bought lots of amazing produce from the NYC Greenmarkets.

I ran my first race–a 5k!!

They casted the Sex and the City movie next door to my office.

I got an awful haircut and remembered how much I hate my hair when straight.

I spent some gorgeous days at my parents’ house by the beach.

I finally got around to reading In Defense of Food.

I discovered the joy of white chocolate peanut butter. (Not a fan of the dark chocolate one.)

I sweated my butt off in the August heat with the 30 Day Shred.

I went to Washington, DC to visit my friend Becca.

My ankle started to hurt for the first time.

I went on the CBS Early Show to promote one of my company’s books.

My ankles started to get worse.

I went to the US Open (excuse the obscene amount of tennis pictures, you know how much I love tennis).

I made it courtside the first night we were there. We saw Andy Roddick up close and personal.

The eventual champion, Juan Martin Del Potro.

Fernando Verdasco. The two people in yellow directly behind him are my friend Elisa and her dad.

Novak Djokovic.

The Bryan Brothers.

The champion again.

Jo-Wilfred Tsonga

RAFA!!

I spent 2 days in the pouring, cold rain waiting for the women’s semi finals.

The rain turned my friend’s hand (right) white compared to my hand (left).

At the beginning of the second day of rain delays we got to see about 10 minutes of tennis. Rafa played!

This was my little rain tent.

Note my healthy choices.

I learned a lot about the process of drying the courts.

The rain delays made us a little loopy. (I know, I need to stop with the tennis pictures.)

I did the macarana.

More of the court drying process.

It’s apparently quite dangerous.

When the rain finally stopped it was worth it because I got to see the infamous Serena Williams’ tirade.

If you can’t tell me and my friends are serious Rafa fans.

We saw Bill Clinton

Roger Federer again advanced to the finals.

Moving on, I went to the Vendy’s and ate my way through some amazing food.

Seriously, a ton of food.

And I did my signature food pose.

Stay tuned for October-December!
