Georgia State of Mind

This weekend, with carry-on, oversized nude handbag, and make-up kit in tow, I, Nakiella, boarded an American Airlines flight to Georgia.  It’s not my first time going to the Peach State, but this time was different.  I was going as a single adult with my eyes on the prize, and a new diet plan embedded in my brain.  I knew that visiting my childhood bestie would mean “Food, Fun, and Laughter.”   Indulgence was an understatement.  I sampled sweet, maple syrup doused pancakes;  crunched the crispy skin of fried chicken breast, while moaning with delight as juices flowed from the tender, white meat; and sipped fruity cocktails of blue curacao and rum (the lime and cherry garnishes DO count as a fruit serving, right?).  You know what, though?  I felt guilt-free the whole time!  One major thing I have learned as food lover who is trying to lose weight is that you can’t shun all of the foods you love.  Also, I made sure I countered the fattening delights by drinking tons of water, subbing whole wheat bread for its bleached-white cousin, and keeping up with my daily walks.  My walks were much more strenuous in Georgia, as well, as the typical Bronx hills I’m used to were a joke compared to the mountainous terrain in Snellville.  I would return to the house looking like I got drenched in a deluge after those walks, and I loved it! One thing I had to do was check out the nightlife in GA.  I’m not really a party girl like I used to be, but I definitely enjoy a refreshing cocktail and some good tunes.  It’s always been fun for me to get ready with my bestie.  We throw on the tunes, some sex-kitten heels, and of course we “beat our faces” with hot-red lipsticks and bronze eyeshadows.  We ended up going to a spot that had a Dancehall and Reggae night and, being Jamaican, our standards were set high.  The club we went to is called Club 426, located at 5469 Memorial Drive in Stone Mountain, GA.  The drinks? On point.  The music? Dead on.  The men?  Eh...  We realized when we arrived that it was an 18+ club.  We still had a good time, but it was hard to not feel like a grandma when half the guys in the club couldn’t even purchase drinks.  Highlight?  There were two strippers on hand who gladly clapped their booties for some ones.   I had an incredible time in GA, even though I missed the other half of this Fabulously Fierce Duo.  Here are some must-do’s if you happen to be in the Snellville/Atlanta area.

Get out and walk/jog/run!  Even if you have a gym membership to a national fitness center, I would suggest doing some outdoor cardio.  The terrain is perfect for a challenging workout.

Visit the Yellow River Game Ranch located at 4525 U.S. 78  Lilburn, GA 30047.  Not only is it a nice leisurely stroll, you get to be hands on with the animals and there’s even free-roaming deer who love eating carrots from your hand!

Check out the Nightlife!  No, I didn’t meet anyone worth mentioning on my trip, but how can you possibly meet a new guy if you don’t get out?  Plus, I know I burned some calories with my dancing.

Eat Soul Food!  And, enjoy every sinful calorie, just watch your portion sizes.

Turning negatives into positives!

Let me paint you a picture. The location is Union Square, the sun is commencing to set, wind speeds are moderate, it is approximately 72-74 degrees outside. People are gathered from all walks of life reading books, singing songs, strolling through the park. I (Tiffany) am wearing this super cute, bubble gum dress I bought from Forever 21 which I paired with neon blue flats [color blocking at it’s finest]. My hair is straight, no makeup on, lips drenched in clear lip gloss [I feel so naked without my gloss] and a pair of brown/gold aviator glasses. Now, this would be the perfect scenario for a single girl like myself to go out on a date. And that is what I did, although, the date wasn't as mesmerizing as the picture I just painted. There were so many things I could pick apart from to explain why I unfortunately [for him], will not see him again. We met on Okcupid which is a free social networking/dating site. I normally do not like to admit to this but I have come to the realization that in 2012, you have to exacerbate all your options because there is no ONE specific place to meet the “right” guy [and or girl if that is your cup of tea]. His profile seemed decent enough for me to respond to his message and we conversed for a week or so until we finally exchanged numbers. Our conversations were actually pretty good, so that lead us to finally trying to meet in person -- we both figured we might as well see if the “chemistry” is the same in person as it is over the phone. We finally set a date for two days ago 4/17 to meet up after I got out of work. Normally, meeting up after work entails drinks and food [the food could be tapas for all I care, I just need something in my belly because most likely I haven’t eaten since 12/1 pm. We met at the upside down Elephant in Union Square. As he greets me with a hug and a side cheek kiss, I notice he has a McDonald’s Strawberry Banana smoothie in his hand. WHY? Good question -- well according to him he doesn't eat much when it’s nice outside, he prefers to drink a lot of liquids. In my head I am giving him all the eye rolls and sucking/kissing of the teeth as possible. I mean even if that was the case at least wait for me so we can grab something together; first negative of the night. As we start walking and talking I can’t help but notice his bottom lip was EXTREMELY dry. I kept putting on my lip gloss and as if to get him to realize what I was doing and hope he would copy. [You know it’s like when someone has funky breath, you take out a piece of gum knowing damn well you never really wanted a piece but you have to take it because if you don’t then it’s just going to seem as if you are this rude insensitive person telling them their breath stinks by offering them gum -- as I digress]. I couldn't look at him throughout the conversation; luckily I kept my shades on the whole time so he couldn't see my eyes wonder or doze off. Second negative of the night! I mean the list goes on but after that I just knew that this wasn't going to go anywhere. I wasn’t rude about the situation though, we continued the conversation a little longer. We ended up at Washington Square Park and talked and talked and talked. I did notice while he was talking I was drifting off and thinking of what I wanted to say next. LOL. I am not sure why I stayed there other than the fact that I was just trying to be polite and it was a beautiful day to people watch. I will say, the only benefit to this date, I found a cute little Italian gelato place called Armorino on 60 University Place. They have THE BEST PASSION FRUIT GELATO I have ever had in my life. I recommend everyone go out and try that place RIGHT NOW. Okay, well maybe not right now, but when you have time on the weekend or after work and you’re just looking to wind down. The moral of this story is although I did not find my prince charming, I am one step closer. I know what I like and I reserve the right to be “picky”. Plus I have a new favorite gelato store, I might even try to go again this week with Keelee Keelz (Nakiella) since she is finally back from Atlanta now. :) Turning negatives into positives. -1/2 of the Fabulously Fierce Duo <3 Tiffany

The Fabulously Fierce Duo

Hello World, 

We are two women who are currently struggling with weight as well as dating in NYC. After many failed dates, and attempts to lose weight individually, we figured why not join forces. We can help motive each other to become healthier versions of ourselves, as well as share tips, tricks, and advice on dating in general. 

First off, allow me to introduce myself.  My name is Nakiella, and I am 27 years-young.  I studied English Lit at SUNY Plattsburgh, and obviously, have a passion for writing.  My friends would describe me as a hilarious, generous, Leo with a palette for all things delicious.  I like my food like I like my men, hot and spicy ;) (I mean, what would you expect from a Fire sign?)  I have been single for almost two years and am currently weighing in at a whopping 199lbs.  (I must state, however, that I have been making healthier eating choices and walking daily for about 3 weeks now, and my original starting weight was 207lbs.)  My goal at the end of this journey?  To be a healthy Nakiella in an even healthier relationship.

The other voice of this blog is my good friend Tiffany. She is 25 years old and has an Advertising Marketing Communications degree from FIT. -- Hi [waving frantically], let me bring you into my world ^_^. (Clearly I'm the creative one, hehe) I currently live in Harlem with my two spunky pups; Cali & Apache. I've been single for about two years as well, shortly after moving back from California. I like to consider myself a foodie with an eclectic taste in music. I love spontaneous moments and have an affinity for travel. Ultimately, my goal is to lose a few extra pounds and find the elusive “good man” in NYC.  

We met at work, where Tiffany was in charge of training me.  We quickly realized that we shared much in common. Our main objective is to be healthy.  We also are working on the hypothesis that weight-loss will help in the dating world.  

Look forward to:

- Weekly Healthy Weigh-ins

- Gym and Fitness Updates

- Restaurant and Recipe Reviews

- Events and Venues, Nightlife and Beyond

- Excursions and Adventures

- Local Business Features

- Eye Candy 

- Dating Triumphs and Failures

Hope you enjoy our many journeys, as we look forward to sharing them with you.

Fabulously Fierce<3,

Nakiella & Tiffany
