Meieli: Getting Healthy, Plus Version

]]>
Hey, I’m Meieli, and I want to introduce myself and throw myself into the mix of other Burning the Scale bloggers! I signed up to collaborate with my fellow b5 friends and get healthier this year, and I can’t wait to share all my challenges. . . LOL. I’m going to cook up a health scheme that’s a touch French Women Don’t Get Fat, my favorite “healthy lifestyle” book, and hopefully add in small, friendly workouts on a regular basis. Tomorrow’s the first day this year that I’ll be in the gym… definitely not the last.

And my goals? Feel better! The more I exercise, the better I feel, but my biggest problem is that I’m really, really intimidated by my gym. I hate the free weight area, I hate exercise classes (torture!), and I almost feel too uncomfortable to walk around in the downstairs section. I think I’m the ideal candidate for Curves! Anyway, I’ll try to get over it since I do have a three-year contract, but I don’t want to make that mistake again. :)

Oh, and I’ll be wearing the Retro Aztec Shoes from Scarlett Johansson. They’re my absolute pick-me-up during gym time.

Every BODY Is Beautiful & SpoonFed Art

]]> In the spirit of being healthy, I wanted to let everyone know about the National Eating Disorders Association’s fundraising event, Every BODY is Beautiful. It’s running from November 1st to December 2nd of this year and is hosted by musician Sara Evans.

Eating disorders are a serious disease that are affecting an increasing number of women (and men) around the world. You can do some holiday shopping for jewelry, clothes, trips, music, art and more – all for a great cause. Find out more here.

Most special is the SpoonFed Art collection by a woman named Karin Collins. These amazing pieces of jewelry are made from actual spoons, and as you can see below, they’re gorgeous and unique:

Karin had suffered from an eating disorder for 20 years, and the spoon art was originally something she did for herself as part of her art therapy to begin healing. Now she continues to spread the word about the National Eating Disorders Association through her jewelry business.

You can check out Karin’s latest work at SpoonFedArt.com.
