CoolSculpting

               I have been debating on sharing my experience with my decision to do CoolSculpting. But after the results I have had in only 2 month especially after the Holiday's, I am more then happy to come out and share because I am amazed at what I have seen. And I still haven't seen  the full results, you see the full results after 90 days. 

               After having a baby your body does change, I know I am not that big but I know how good I could look and after all the exercising and dieting I did it seemed like if I ate one bad thing the next day all my hard work went down the drain, mainly in the stomach area which drove me nuts because everywhere else I was pretty happy with except my stomach.

               I have always had trouble in my love handle area, even when I was 110 pounds. I work out with a trainer, but even with working out 3 to 4 times a week my stomach area just was not losing anything, my love handles always seemed to get in the way of me achieving my goals and how I wanted to look.

              I kept seeing commercials for CoolSculpting. I was intrigued by it but never thought I would do it cause it seemed like it was too expensive. I was shocked that it was reasonable compare to doing lipo, which I never wanted to do because I have seen really bad lipo work, on women that are smaller size and then there stomach kind of collapse a little. I went to Sonterra Med Spa because I was told they had the best prices in town. At the end of the day the procedure is just done by a vacuum like device so i figured why not go and get a consultation. I was amazed by the service and the price.  

              I will say my love handle areas didn't hurt at all but my lower abdomen area hurt a lot. I would definitely suggest to light workouts 3 or 4 days after the procedure. If you do feel any side effects it normally is 3 or 4 days after you have the procedure. Again this is very uncommon cause i did a lot of research on it when I did experience a lot of pain. But Dr. Kumar gave me some pain medication and it helped me a lot.  I will keep you all posted on my final results and the actual before and after pictures that Sonterra Med Spa took. Over all I am so happy with my results so far. Can't wait for the final result! Normally the price is $600.00 per area but when I went they were having a special so I got it for $100.00 off.

sorting out my closet!!

                  I have way too many clothes and I feel like I have nothing to wear. Like how all of us girls feel at one point or another. I’m getting ready for fall and honestly just getting frustrated. My girlfriend told me about her friend that was a stylist. I have looked into getting a stylist before, but normally they run 75.00 a hour and up. Quite frankly I am not going to pay someone that much to tell me to throw away my clothes, or what’s in and what’s not.

                 Curiosity got the best of me so I called Brady and just asked her a few questions about how much she charges and things like that. Her whole goal is that everyone needs to shop there closet before going anywhere to shop. She said she was 25 an hour and I thought you know what why not. I was sold.

                I was super excited to get rid of some of my clothes only because I have worn them so many times and I needed to cleanse out my closet. She helped me with that, but also taught me how to layer so my clothes make me look more professional, which we all know I need, haha.

                I love how Brady helped me make my closet like a little boutique so it will help me stay organized and keep it that way. I would have never guessed it would have taken this long but I ended up hiring her for 7 hours and it was way worth it. Plus in her fee she includes to send you different outfit ideas whenever you want. You can clearly see this is her passion and I love how she makes it reasonable for everyone’s budget. I know to some people 25 an hour is a lot but also just think how much money you will save on an outfit that doesn't work, and the time you will save because you actually have looks to piece together. I just want to thank her for all her amazing help, she is simply the best, thanks again. 

So check out my looks and also call Brady 210-483-0210. I have posted some pictures as an example of what her amazing talent has done for my closet!

Date night with my son

I know that Beauty and the Beast is more of a girl movie but what can I say my son loves it haha. It’s a little girly but there’s nothing wrong with a boy that likes Disney musicals. We went to the Beauty and the Beast 8:00 p.m. showing last Friday, I know a little late. We went to the Rain Forest Café and I figured that since it was a Friday no big deal. Well, I was completely wrong! We had to leave after “be our guest” song because my 5 year kept falling asleep. It was an hour into the show at least. I am not used to this at all, first time mommy to a kindergartner. Lesson was learned we will only be going to matinee shows. That was $120 downs the drain. However I am looking forward to the Lion King that is coming to the Majestic Theater in December. At least I know our seats will be worth it. So happy my seats will be the same for the next showing. Mommy lesson to a mother of a child in school Friday nights are an early night, to be safe Saturday early so my son isn’t falling asleep in the middle of a great performance.

 

Sunday Brunch

I have been so crazy getting my makeup line up going for the holidays and trying to be there more for my 5 year old son, Aiden. I just haven’t found the time to get my blog posts up. I am finally getting the swing of things and I am determined to find the best Sunday brunch places in San Antonio. I had many favorites when I lived in California, which is still one of the things that I miss the most. So this Sunday I made it my mission to search out some places that I have not tried before, so bring it on San Antonio!

 I have heard of about these Mexican food Sunday brunches before but a sad fact is I have never been. So I decided to try one. I went to one called El Jarro and I must say it was good. Great place and the best part for me is that they have a pretty good wine list which is something that I didn’t always find in other Mexican restaurants. But for me that was just wonderful I could get some of my favorite champagnes here a complete bonus. I am definitely coming back and for the price it was great. So if you are ever in San Antonio give them a try. It had a great atmosphere and I had great company, just a prefect way for me to get started on my busy Sunday.

La Salon Riiko

I was not happy with the time frame of the last salon and I was ready to just give up on having cute nails. But thanks to my girlfriend Traci who referred me to Riiko at La Salon Riiko. Riiko is really friendly and is from Wai Kee Kee Hawaii. Her design and attention to her customers is what I believe sets her apart from any other salon here in San Antonio.

At first I was a little hesitant to pay $60.00 for a set of nails, many of her clients say it last for 3-4 weeks which is what really impressed me, and so I decided to give it a shot. From the beginning I was impressed with her technique, she seemed to have a talent I had never seen before. The customer service was outstanding and the whole appointment from start to finish lasted only 45 minutes which is perfect for my busy schedule. I was also served champagne which I absolutely love.

The gel she used really stood out to me. When I asked her what it was she told me that it is special ordered from Japan and her salon is the only one in the U.S that uses it.

La Salon Riiko is opened 10 a.m-7p.m, Tuesday-Saturday.

I highly recommend you make an appointment. Riiko is a real artist and once this little secret leaks out she will booked for months in advanced.
