Mona Liza Reyes's blog

To say that this weekend's workshops with Crazy Legs of Rock Steady Crew was an absolute success is an understatement. For the FREE Youth Workshop, close to 100 kids and even more parents came out to learn the art of bboying from the Living Legend himself.

Happy Humpday MFT!!!

Wow.. Looking at the last blog I posted, I can't believe an entire month has gone by without me posting a little somethin' somethin' :)

Happy Weekend MFT'ers!
I know it's been awhile since I've last posted a blog entry... between hosting boot camps, training clients and planning several workshops & events in the very near future, I wanted to share with all of you an article posted in this month's REALITY Magazine about a fellow MFT Member, me :) You can pick up an issue of Reality Magazine at your local Barnes & Noble Bookstore. AND Sagi Kalev also has a feature article in that same issue.

Is when another social fitness network, gives MY FIT TRIBE a plug! :)

Today, OPRAH reveals her on-going struggle with weight loss. She revealed that she has hit her heaviest all-time heaviest, tipping the scales at 200lbs. We have all witnessed her weight fluctuate as she yo-yo dieted for over 2 decades. She can hire the top chefs of the world to prepare every single meal. Have a world-renowned trainer to live with and travel with her. If she wanted to go to the absolute extreme, could even have surgery done... but she's dealing with it and sharing with the rest of the world, that she is just like one of us.

To all my fellow MFT'ers, please join me today (12/06) in wishing JAMO a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

TO VOTE!

This morning, I stood in line for an hour to cast my vote in hopes of a better future. By no means am I political, but it is important that each and every one of our voices are heard. So to all my fellow MY FIT TRIBERS - vote early if you can or you can wait until Tuesday, November 4. JUST GO OUT THERE AND VOTE!

"I am Mona Liza "MO" Reyes and I approve this message" :)

Be blessed and bless others,

I am super-thrilled to be the newest addition of athletes supporting a wonderful cause to bring awareness and end the cruel and abusive acts of dog fighting. This organization is "KNOCK OUT DOG FIGHTING" www.knockoutdogfighting.org

Elite athletes already on the team are my fellow (www.knoxxgear.com) Knoxx Sponsored athletes: StrikeForce current lightweight champion - Josh "the punk" Thomson, StrikeForce current middleweight champion - Cung Le and UFC fighter Anthony "Rumble" Johnson. Razor Rob McCullough and Former UFC Champion, Tito Ortiz also support this awesome cause.

For me, it was in December 2005, I completed the Honolulu Marathon after being bedridden with a stomach flu the day before. 2 days before it started with chills, high fever, fatigue and overall dehydration. I remember crying WHILE throwing up as I thought about the months I had dedicated to training for this one day. And perhaps, all for nothing. I hadn't eaten, I couldn't ... since I didn't have an appetite and even if I did, I couldn't even hold a glass of ginger ale down. I never prayed so hard.

PHEW!!!! What a weekend....

As many of you know, some of us went to the Olympia to represent My Fit Tribe, capture some great interviews, film some new workouts and shoot with 2 of the best photographers: Jason Mathas and Stanley Lopez. It was an action packed weekend, fast-paced and on the go! I had to take a step back and take it all in as each and everyone of us worked diligently to provide all of you, our MFT Family, some quality stuff to share with those of you who visit this site regularly.

Uggghhh... Everyone around me was catching a bug or virus of some sort. I don't know what made me feel I was invincible to the cooties. Late last night it hit me: the aches, fatique, feverish and yacking. To say the least, I had to postpone my flight to meet Jamo & Ves and will be flying in to Vegas LATE tonight.

Here's the plenty of Vitamin C, h20, DayQuil and rest. Any other suggestions?

And any video blog topics you'd like me to cover this weekend, hit me up and let me know. I will do my best to make sure we answer some of your questions :)

Be blessed,
MO

So I'm the first to admit if I don't know an answer... I either look it up on google or simple ask people questions who may have had experience with it. :) WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ALKALIZATION?

Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, I've found some interesting articles already, but am curious to hear some "real life" experience. Looking forward to hearing what you guys have to say... Happy Weekend MFTers and looking forward to meeting some of you in Vegas in a couple of weeks!

Be blessed and bless others,
MO
