Raising Three Savvy Ladies

NYC Lifestyle Blog

June 17, 2013 //

Team Jenny and the New York Heart Walk with Valerie Bertinelli

Jenny Craig Brand Ambassador Valerie Bertinelli Leads Team Jenny At The American Heart Association's Wall Street Run & Heart Walk 5.30.2013
Thank you to @NYCLaurenBeth for being a part of the AHA TEAM Jenny with me and covering for Raising Three Savvy Ladies.  With sister teamwork, we will walk away those pounds! For more coverage of the walk, please visit my coverage on Momtrends.

On Thursday, May 30  I participated in the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Wall Street Run & Heart Walk with “Team Jenny” and Valerie Bertinelli.   Valerie Is Jenny Craig’s Brand Ambassador and has lost 40 pounds while using Jenny Craig and has kept the weight off since December 2007.   Jenny Craig has celebrated 30 Years of changing lives by acknowledging 30 successful clients who have achieved their weight loss goals with diet and exercise and are now  leading a healthy lifestyle. Valerie  & the American Heart Association  encourage everyone  to commit to walking at least 30 minutes a day.  jenny1.jpg

 

Participating in the walk along with my sister @SavvyMomNYC was really great. It was wonderful to hear  other women’s stories of weight loss and how their journey is never-ending.  You don’t just lose the weight and you are done with the program.   You have to keep yourself in check and  have a support team with you.

The walk started  in lower Manhattan the Financial District  and allowed everyone to walk at their own pace.  It was not a fight to the finish  but encouragement along the way from others .

Some benefits of walking are:

  • Toning of your muscles
  • Reducing symptoms of depression
  • Maintaining a stable weight over time
  • Helping control your appetite.

To learn more about AHA walks in your area  check out Jenny’s site here.  You can also find out how to prepare for a walk on  the Jenny craig website http://jennycraig.com/heart-walk_aha-workouts.   Thye have different options for everyone from beginner walker to the 5K challenger. There is something for everyone!

Get Walking today to get on the right track to a Healhier Heart!

As a national supporter of the American Heart Association’s My Heart. My Life. healthy living initiative, Jenny Craig is committed to helping combat the obesity epidemic and with it, the overwhelming health issues caused by weight-related diseases, including heart disease – the leading cause of death in the United States**. In fact, Jenny is working with the AHA to reduce Americans’ risk for cardiovascular disease by 20 percent by 2020.  As part of their support, Jenny Craig is leading the charge by supporting nearly 300 AHA Heart Walks throughout the year, including next month’s New York Heart Walk, and will ask Americans to commit to walking at least 30 minutes a day to help maintain a healthier weight.

    I am a big fan of walking, alone or with someone. I find it relaxing and a great way to get in some exercise.

    It looks like you had a great day too!

    I’ve started a routine at work in which I work for 50 minutes, and walk for 10. I should be able to get my 30 minutes a day in that way. (No, I wasn’t a math major.)

    Good stuff here!

    It sounds like a great way to get started exercising since it’s at your own pace. Walking is much more fun when you’re with others.

    What a fun event! My little sis was born with a massive hole in her heart (she had surgery when she was little and has been great ever since). Because of that my dad was very active in the AHA when I was a kid. I loved doing all the walks and the jump rope for heart events.

    So glad to hear your sister had a positive experience after surgery. I love the Jump Rope for Heart events too!

NYC/Westchester Mom to 3 Teens who love to #travel #health #DisneySMC #teacher #westchester

So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macy So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macys and Santa! Last night, we took the train into the city to preview #Macys #Santaland I have to say it was quite magical. Although my youngest was 12, Santa was able to connect to her and put us all in the holiday spirit. 

I believe. I believe….

My mom also came with us. We started talking and I think it was almost 40 years ago that she took us to visit Santa at Macys. I was so happy to visit Santa with her and my youngest for a three generation experience.

Don’t forget to check out the beautiful window displays as you enjoy all of #NYC during the holidays!

#ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but #ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but 1 in 5 adults suffer from mental illness and disorders today. 

Let’s reduce the stigma by opening up the conversation in the classroom and at home.
As a teacher and a mom of 3, I know how important it is to be there and be a good listener.

Conversations are super important. It’s never too early (or too late) to have these conversations with your students or your own children.

Operation Conversation is a check-in on kids’ mental health. When we start simple habits of conversations, we can learn about concerns or problems our students are dealing with, help them problem solve, and build their confidence for life’s difficult moments. 

Teachers can help to destigmatize mental health starting in their own classrooms by talking to their students about mental health using a free deck of conversation starter cards. Parents can also use these cards to support good conversations while at home. I know as a mom, I can use all the help I can get. 

#Giveaway Alert! 
I have 5 decks of Conversation Starter Decks of cards to give away to 5 lucky winners to help you get the conversation flowing! 

To enter:
1. Comment on this post as to why you would love the conversation starter deck of cards. 
 2. Follow @OnOurSleevesOfficial
3. Follow me @SavvyMomNY  I will pick the winners after 10pm on 11/22

Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest and touring her sister on first college visit. Maybe it’s a sign that they should be together. Totally bittersweet and we went to visit Binghamton in October 2019 and only made it to two more before March 2020. I’m only thinking of bright skies ahead for the both of them filled with amazing memories and wonderful opportunities 💚

New York state has so many wonderful places to be New York state has so many wonderful places to be a part of . From the bright lights of NYC, to quiet places of respite in its parks and wooded areas. Time to walk, hike and reflect. Being active and busy is something that I hope my teens learn from and something we can do together to enjoy all the beauty and nature it has to offer while keeping NY tobacco free. Did you know that our oldest generation of smokers are now dying? After them, you have me and a very large group of people who do not smoke at all. So, who’s next? Instead of taking cigarettes off the shelves, the tobacco industry views today’s teens as tomorrow’s customers, using menthol-flavored products to attract and addict kids – and it’s working. More than half (54%) of youth who smoke (ages 12-17 years) use menthol cigarettes. making it easier for kids to start and harder for them to quit. Menthol is not JUST a flavor, it attracts and addicts kids As a teen mom, I am sharing this so we can all take action! Learn more about the impact of Big Tobacco’s manipulative tactics on our communities and how you can take action to help end this injustice. Let’s keep our kids enjoying the wonderful things our state has to offer. Link in bio #NotJustMenthol #TobaccoFreeNYS #ad @tobaccofreenys
