Busy buzzin’ like a little bee over here preppin’ my apartment for my dinner party tomorrow night! Believe it or not, I JUST took down my Christmas tree this weekend.
Thought it might be in poor form to have you all “over” to my place and see that my tree was still up – and yes, it is (or I should say ‘was’) a real tree. Maybe someday I’ll do a training on how to make your real x-mas tree last 2 months…but not today!
Today I want to talk to you about one of the MAJOR missing pieces for so many women who are lovers of kale, don’t mind a good sweat session and still aren’t feeling like a million bucks.
It’s your mind.
I also like to refer to it as your mental station tuned to “radio f*ck you”.
If you’ve got a bully in your brain or what I like to call your “inner critic” running the show, you MUST turn it around. Or your mental angst, anxiousness, unhappiness and abuse will continually manifest itself physically for you by feeling like a 10 pound sausage in a 5 pounds casing. Not fun.
Now, shifting your mindset and cultivating your inner cheerleader cannot be done alone and goes waaaay beyond sticking post-it notes of affirmations like “mind over matter” all over your home.
If you want to shift your mindset permanently, understand the power it has and use it as a weapon for slimming down without starving yourself, get your buns on the guest list for my Virtual Dinner Party tomorrow night, if you haven’t already.
I personally have done a TON of work to master my own mindset and I’d really love to share what I’ve mastered and those tips and tools with you.
And honestly, you don’t have to learn how to meditate (I always fall asleep anyway) or go all woo-woo to master the mind game.
So make sure you’ve reserved your spot for tomorrow’s f.r.e.e. training here: http://www.laughyourselfskinnynow.com
Taking you a little deeper inside how your inner critic can pack on the pounds…even if you exercise your buns off, is this week’s episode of J-ciniTV!
I talk more about how and why your mind is holding you back from dropping a pant size the easy way…and what to do to start turning it around.
Check it out here:
And this is a final friendly reminder that there are only a few virtual seats left at my dinner party tomorrow night, so grab yours here pronto.
CJ will be here partying with us too so you’ll get to meet him! Can’t wait!
Cheers to finally having a lean, toned body you love (without killing yourself to get there)!
Love, health & laughter,
Jessica
P.S. All guest of my dinner party are getting two Laugh Yourself Skinny recipes for my Skinny Procini Fettucini and Chocolate Love Truffles that will leave you feeling light, clean and full! Get yours here.
Trust me, I’m Italian and we Italians LOVE food. They’re tasty (and slimming)!
One of the most common lines I hear from women who are struggling to lose weight is, “I’m eating healthy and exercising – and I don’t know what’s wrong with me! – I just can’t seem to lose these 10 pounds!”
Then a mental spiral starts with all the possible reasons why she hasn’t lost the weight yet…
“Well…maybe it’s portion control. I probably eat too much,” she says. “Or maybe I need to get my thyroid checked.” “Or [huge sigh] maybe I should start running.”
Let me set the record straight, if this situation feels familiar, the reason you aren’t losing weight has nothing to do with portion control, your thyroid or logging miles.
The truth is, there are 5 major pieces to losing weight AND keeping it off for good.
As much as I’d love to go in-depth about these 5 pieces and why you’ve hit a plateau with Weight Watchers, I’m going to refrain from making this post 10 pages long.
Instead, this is your personal invite to my Virtual Dinner Party & No Bullsh*t training on Wednesday, February 5th, “How To Lose 10 Pounds & Have A Breathtaking Body You Love”
Reserve your spot at the virtual dinner table NOW and you’ll receive 2 recipes that’ll whittle your waist and tickle your tastebuds.
Since we’ve got a little time before the big event, I’ve put one of my sought-after secrets in this episode of J-ciniTV so you don’t have to wait to start slimming down!
Get started with dropping a pant size now by watching this video:
And don’t forget to head over to www.laughyourselfskinnynow.com for more weight loss secrets without starving yourself!
Can’t wait to party with you! It’s gonna be a freakin’ blast!

PS. “Eating healthy” isn’t your ticket to losing weight. Neither is straving yourself. Eating the fat blasting foods that are right for YOU is one piece of the puzzle. Learn how to find those foods for you here.
Today is the first official J-ciniTV episode of 2014 and I’m THRILLED to share it with you.
As you can see, the LYS team and I have been working like mighty little mice through a huge makeover and we’ve got such a pretty new playground to Laugh Ourselves Skinny in! After you watch today’s episode, poke around on here and check out the new site!
Anyhooo – I’m sure your holidays and new years were one big month-long celebration that may have you feeling less than fabulous. Don’t get me wrong – I love a good glass of champagne and chocolate cookie sandwiches from Sweet Freedom here in Philly, but after nightly indulgences my body is craving a good cleanse.
Now if you think I’m clearing my social calendar and drinking juice for 3 days straight in an effort to get back on track…come on! You know me better than that!
I’ve learned the hard way that the only thing waiting for me at the end of a juice cleanse is a binge, so I never recommend it to you, especially if you struggle with emotional eating like me.
I’ve got something waaaay better than that.
In this episode of J-ciniTV, I give you a run down of what I’m doing to detox, without wanting to punch my friend and steal her pizza.
Indulge in this week’s dose of skinny:
Now, making change requires ACTION so here’s this week’s “coach’s challenge” which will help you get on the fast track to dropping a pant size.
In the comments below, share: what’s one thing you’re going to do to get back on track without starving yourself?
Excited to get the accountability party going! See you in the conversation below 🙂
Cheers to a love, health and laughter in 2014!

Ever been asked, “What do you want for (your birthday, Christmas, Chanukah, etc.)?” and hoping that whoever asked will know you well enough to get you that diamond you’ve had your eye on… so you give the canned reply of “Nothinggg.”
When did asking for what we really want seem like too much?
For years my parents required I hand over my Christmas list. Anything that was on the list had receiving potential.
My mom started this tradition so the holidays for her were a heck of a lot easier… and fun! Instead of lamenting over whether I’d like the black or brown uggs and racking her brain if I’m a size 6 or 7, she could spend more time relaxing knowing she got exactly what I wanted.
As women, we can spend so much time thinking up and researching gift ideas for others, it can be really difficult to know exactly what WE want.
So in this episode of J-ciniTV, I’ve put together some of MY favorite things that help me stay slim and trim all year long, in hopes it’ll spark some ideas of what you’d like to receive.
And because I’m so grateful that you’re apart of my world and watch J-ciniTV, there are some special deals for each one too, just for you 😉

I hope your Thanksgiving weekend was fabulous! Mine will certainly go down in history since Saturday I rescued a puppy…
I’m a little biased but isn’t he the cutest? His name is CJ.
If we’re friends on Facebook or you check out my pics on instagram, I’m always leavin’ on a jet plane / traveling. And for years that was a major reason why I never said yes to my desire to have a dog.
But I recently realized that my lifestyle isn’t going to change anytime soon, nor do I want it to, so it was time to figure out a way to have both – travel and a dog I love.
(Just like with losing weight… you CAN have a life, fun and eat the foods you love AND lose weight.)
Now, rewind a couple years ago and similar to the dog situation, I thought if I traveled a lot I couldn’t have the body I loved.
I used to think “where will I work out?”, “will I even have time to work out?”, “what if there’s nothing healthy to eat at the airport?”, “UGH. I don’t want to eat hotel food for a week”.
But soon I got thrown into traveling regularly and I became a pro at figuring out how to stay healthy, sane and slim on the road.
Since travel is something that will always be a part of my life and yours, it doesn’t mean our bodies and health have to suffer.
In this episode of J-ciniTV, I give you a few easy-peasy tips to stay slim when traveling and beat that dreaded airplane bloat…
Watch what I do before leaving town:
(Don’t miss the few silly seconds at the 1:15 mark)
Got any travel tips you’d love to share? Throw them in the comments below this video!

Jessica
PS. Ever feel like your clothes don’t fit the first few days you arrive at your destination? That’s airplane bloat. Do this to feel flat-belly fabulous upon arrival.
