Lisa arrived on the second day of the Ignite Your Spark conference…I was a volunteer and the first day was great except a couple of stressful moments for me! I was in charge of getting airport shuttles for the out of town speakers and got to deal with one of the high maintenance speakers…which would have been fine but I was way tired (I had a horrible night of hardly any sleep)… but she realized I was flustered and made it up to me with a word of encouragement.

The first day was over the top with amazing transformations right in front of my eyes, healing tears around me (including my own) ,sexy chair dancing (thanks to Christie Mawer- The Bad Kitty) and a relaxing back massage from Touch Of An Angel at the Pamper Party and much, much more!!!

Even though I was with Lisa most of the time I didn’t get a picture with her or my book signedlike the rest of them…but I did get to hold her hand as I escorted her to the bathroom in her time of need

I became great friends with Lisa’ s friend and assistant…I was intimidated of Lisa and didn’t know what to say to her except a few things here and there. I think I bothered Lisa…I can be a bit annoying when I’m put in charge. Oh well. I dropped dinner off for Lisa and her team at the hotel, arranged for their pick-up from the hotel and to the hotel…I’m proud of myself! I did REAL good with planning and all  (Not that I’m bragging or anything

Everyone on the volunteer team was so amazing!!!!

It was a beautiful evening!!! There was giveaways, awesome singing and african dancing!!! The whole room exploded with women dancing. It was a PARTY!!!!

Lisa did throw me a bone and while I waited with her before she went on stage she gave me a side hug and with a personable smile asked me if I was going to sleep good tonight…cause of all my hard work I’m guessing. I appreciated it.

By the end of the night I had a man who was complete stranger ask me for a hug, he wanted to thank me for doing such a great job and for being radiant, a job offer and a free book- The Bad Kitty handbook all about sensuality (woot woot). How awesome is that!!!!

I got to step into my power last Friday and Saturday and became a true leader!!! Thanks Angela and Marilyn for trusting me and giving me the opportunity!!!

And don’t worry, it’s anonymous.

WII- It’s amazing how much more enjoyable a workout can be when it comes in video-game form. Moms on the pregnancy and parenting site TheBump.com are all about Wii Fit workouts. “Love the Hula Hoop and boxing,” says one mom on the message boards. The Wii won’t give you all the exercise you need, but it can be a fun supplement that concentrates on your core. Get your husband to join in – he might just lose a little “baby fat” of his own.

EXPLORE- Choose free-time activities that necessitate walking. Hit up local festivals (check out Festivals.com), schedule lunches with friends and explore nearby parks, museums and playgrounds. Before heading out, La Reine Chabut, author of “Lose That Baby Fat!,” suggests that you start the day with a 10-minute walk in your neighborhood. And for maximum benefits, pay attention to your stance. If you can’t get motivated to hoof it alone, try a class. Nordahl is a big fan of Stroller Strides, a fitness program that not only involves baby, but inspires some great (and much needed) interaction with other moms (StrollerStrides.com). Either way, strap on The Strollometer ($40, Target.com), and you’ll know just how far — and how fast — you’ve wandered. Talk about multitasking.

YOGA AND PILATES- Postnatal yoga and Pilates classes are popping up all over the country, making for a great way to tone up and empty your mind of burp cloths and diapers for a bit. According to Holly Jean Cosner, instructor at YogaWorks, NYC, and author of “PeeWee Pilates: Pilates for the Postpartum Mother and Her Baby,” “Pilates targets the core which consists of three layers of abdominal muscles — all of which are overstretched to make room for baby – (as well as) the hips, buttocks, lower back and pelvic floor. Basically all the areas hit hardest during pregnancy.” And there’s good news on the child-care front: Mommy & Me classes abound. Baby will learn to value exercise, and you’ll have a little partner smiling up at your Downward Dog.

DANCE- Come on, there’s nothing more fun (or better for your gams) than a good boogie. And there’s no greater excuse to make a fool of yourself than playing with baby. If you’re up for cutting a rug in public, check out BabyLovesDisco.com for a pint-size dance party near you. (Remember to spend a lot of time grooving at baby’s level — it’ll give you killer thighs.)

MARTIAL ARTS- You have to take it easy for a few months, but not forever. Once your body has healed and you have your doc’s permission for strenuous exercise, go for whatever workout gets you going. If you like a good challenge (and a lot of sweat), check out martial arts classes. Kickboxing, karate and capoeira are great exercise, and the focus (and burn) can make you feel like one uber-powerful and put-together mama. Just be sure your doc is on-board with the plan, and ease in slowly to avoid injury.
