Mesa de Vida – honored to be aligned with Girl Power Hour for the 30 day Fit & Fab event!
Girl Power Hour is the Seattle area premier “Stylish Networking for Women.” I started attending Girl Power Hour events when I launched my business and was so honored to have been chosen as one of their 10 makeover contestants earlier this year. The atmosphere is so encouraging, inspiring and fun!
This coming Monday, April 24 marks the beginning of the Fit & Fab 30 Day Challenge. I am so honored to be part of the team! I am part of “Team Feel Good” providing mental support as well as delicious recipes! I plan on sharing my journey losing 100 pounds, what I learned and help inspire others to get healthy as well! Here is some information.
“We are excited to announce our 3rd Annual Mind-Body Challenge starting on Monday April 23, 2012 and ending on May 24th at the Girl Power Hour Fit & Fab event at Makers in Belltown. This year we challenge you to take a look at your habits and find ways to live a healthy life while taking your lifestyle into consideration during this 1 month period of time. Team GPH (Zong Her & Corrie Westmoreland-Vairo and I) will be encouraging you along the way with our individual blogs via Tumblr while Team Hustle (our resident fitness gurus), Team Make it Count (our resident nutritionists) and Team Feel Good (our resident mental mind shifters) will be posting weekly blogs with fitness options, healthy tips for girls on the go, recipes and anecdotes to keep us going right here on gph.com and on our GPH Group Page on Facebook.
This year, the Girl Power Hour challenge will be a “Trifecta of Three” 30 day challenge approach focusing on integrating nutrition, fitness and mental state into the lives we all lead to make it work for us. Sounds standard, but before I get to the juicy details, I wanted to talk about the Challenges we’ve done in the past…”
We’ll be focusing on three aspects: nutrition, fitness, mental state…it’s what we like to refer to as the “Trifecta of Three”. In theory, if you have all three in balance, you should be able to live a fit and healthy lifestyle to its fullest. But how does it apply to you? We’ve appointed three teams to help us tackle that question; each team representing a point of the Trifecta:
- Team Make it Count. Consisting of 3 nutritionists who will help us understand our eating habits, how we can adjust them to make sense for our lifestyles, overcoming emotional eating and more.
- Team Hustle. Consisting of 3 fitness gurus who will provide support by offering weekly fitness options that you can take part in and the kind of kick-in-the-butt support that only a trainer can offer.
- Team Feel Good. Consisting of 3 gals who will offer mental support, tips and recipes to the community via the GPH Blog and in the FB Group.
And finally…..
Team GPH. Consisting of 3 GPH Team Members (Myself, Zong, Corrie), we’ve created a profile for each “Girl.” A Girl that each of you, should be able to identify with:
- Darnell Sue: Socialite with an Appetite | #teambikinimartini | darnellsue.tumblr.com
- Corrie Vairo: Modern Day Maven | #teammodernmaven | corriewv.tumblr.com
- Zong Her: Fast-Moving Fitness Fiend | #teamfastmover | zongher2.tumblr.com

- Allow me to be your personal chef! If you are in the Bellevue/Seattle area I would be happy to cook your meals for you on a weekly/monthly basis or prepare the meals for your 5-day plan. As your personal chef I custom design menus and recipes made specifically for your tastes and preferences – OR I also can follow specific recommendations from your doctor, trainer or nutritionist.

I clean your kitchen, leave the house smelling amazing and you get to enjoy your meals when you are ready for them! No battling traffic heading to a restaurant to wait, paying for sub-par service and food that is not made specifically for you, tipping and then heading back home. Sit back in the comfort of your own home and enjoy your homemade meals! I have cooked for every diet plan, those with allergy restrictions, A-list celebrities and even out of the galley of a yacht. Let me know how I can help you!
