00:00
I've had my tongue pierced, I've had my belly button pierced.
00:04
I wanted to get my nipples pierced, but I just could not.
00:06
Whenever I saw someone doing it,
00:08
I had friends who did that, and I was just like, "Eww."
00:10
Hello, hello, I am Sai Da Silva,
00:13
and this is my Woman's Health Body Scan.
00:15
What I love most about my body, like my boobs,
00:17
I have a great set of boobs.
00:19
My husband loves my boobs.
00:20
Like, they went to (beep) after I was breastfeeding,
00:23
but I feel like they're pretty solid again.
00:25
You know what I really was kind of insecure
00:27
about growing up was my toes.
00:31
I have the longest toes you've ever seen.
00:34
All the kids would make fun of me.
00:36
Like, they would tell me I was scaling walls with my toes.
00:39
Like, they would say all these things.
00:40
So I have to tell you, I used to put makeup on my toes.
00:43
I would do all kinds of things with my toes.
00:46
Now I just don't care.
00:47
I'm wearing sandals, and I don't care.
00:49
I love working out.
00:50
I'm like the workout girl.
00:51
I love to work out this peach.
00:53
I need to have a nice, you know,
00:55
I need to have a round, firm butt,
00:57
and I love to work out my arms.
00:58
I just feel like this is a gun show.
01:01
You know, you never know who you might see,
01:03
who you're gonna have to wave at,
01:05
who's gonna be like, oh my God, can you pass me the salt?
01:08
Like, who's looking at your arms?
01:10
I think the arms are very important.
01:12
Like, you know, doing these bicep curls, all very important.
01:16
So the peach and the arms are definitely
01:19
my favorite to work out.
01:21
My least favorite exercise is just cardio in general.
01:23
Like, I think cardio feels like I'm just dying,
01:25
and it's not enjoyable whatsoever.
01:27
Like, no one just wants to sit here and die.
01:30
It's just not for me.
01:31
So cardio, I have to say,
01:32
is probably my least favorite thing to do.
01:34
A go-to healthy meal for me is definitely a quinoa bowl.
01:38
I go to the farmer's market every Sunday.
01:40
I typically cook all day on Sundays.
01:42
I am crazy about ingredients.
01:45
So typically I will just do some quinoa,
01:47
tons of roasted veggies,
01:48
whatever is in season from the farmer's market.
01:51
I'll throw them in the oven,
01:52
and I'll add that to a quinoa bowl,
01:54
throw some beans, saute some tofu,
01:57
and then the dressing is just a lemon,
01:59
olive oil, and salt and onion powder.
02:02
You gotta season.
02:02
You need seasoning, okay?
02:04
I have to say my comfort meal is a glass of wine.
02:07
(laughs)
02:09
Maybe two, okay?
02:11
I would rather drink my calories than eat them.
02:14
I don't really have a particular comfort food.
02:16
I would have to say maybe pasta.
02:18
I do love, love, love pasta.
02:20
I enjoy pasta.
02:21
I ran track for 10 years,
02:22
so my knees are not the greatest.
02:26
They used to fill up with water when I used to run,
02:28
and I would have to get them drained out,
02:30
and then I had stress fractures in my hip
02:33
that were really, really bad as well.
02:34
So I think that's as serious as it has gotten,
02:38
but hopefully, knock on wood,
02:40
nothing's coming in the future.
02:41
I do have a scar.
02:43
I got a surgery that I ended up having on my hip,
02:46
so I do have a scar, but it doesn't bother me.
02:49
It's just part of me, like a tattoo.
02:51
I have six tattoos.
02:53
Well, I had six tattoos, okay?
02:55
I was going through a phase.
02:56
But I now have three, so I got three removed.
03:01
One I'm still working on.
03:02
Two are completely removed, but yeah, three left.
03:07
It's my piercings.
03:07
I've had my tongue pierced.
03:09
I've had my belly button pierced.
03:12
I wanted to get my nipples pierced, but I just could not.
03:14
Whenever I saw someone doing it,
03:16
I had friends who did that, and I was just like, "Ew!"
03:19
But I think body piercings,
03:20
that's as far as I went.
03:22
And then I had that weird hole in my belly button
03:24
for the longest to remind me.
03:26
Hey, by the way, when you were 16,
03:27
you decided to pierce your belly button
03:29
'cause you thought it was cool.
03:30
Let's talk about skincare.
03:32
I am a skincare fanatic.
03:34
I've come a long way, because in my 20s,
03:36
I would just use a Neutrogena makeup wipe and go to sleep,
03:38
and then I realized it's just stripping my skin,
03:41
and it's not doing anything for me.
03:43
So now I'm really into this long skincare step,
03:47
routine, every single night.
03:48
I don't know if it's more to get away from my kids
03:50
or more just for me, but I definitely will do a toner.
03:53
I love SK-II.
03:55
An essence, I love Cle de Peau, has a really good essence.
03:58
Let's see, what else?
03:59
Dior, Dior Capture Total is a really good line.
04:02
They make a really hydrating, moisturizing moisturizer,
04:06
as well as an under-eye cream.
04:08
Also, they're Dior Prestige
04:09
if you're a little bit older like I am,
04:11
which you couldn't tell, right?
04:12
I like things that are a little bit thicker
04:14
because my skin, it tends to be a little bit
04:17
on the drier side, especially in the winter months.
04:20
I kind of have alligator skin.
04:22
I'm not afraid to say it.
04:23
So I do like things that very much so hydrate my skin.
04:26
I could talk about this all day.
04:28
I am the go-to skin girl.
04:30
I mean, hair is a big thing for me
04:32
just because growing up I had very, very curly hair,
04:36
like huge afro curly hair.
04:38
I know you can't tell right now.
04:39
It's kind of been blow-dried and flat-ironed.
04:41
I also just did a good chop.
04:43
But due to over-styling, getting older with hormones
04:47
and everything else, my hair just all of a sudden just poof.
04:50
It is a completely different texture.
04:52
I had no idea this would happen.
04:54
So my hair care has completely changed.
04:56
You know, I used to have three C curls
04:59
that were very tight ringlets
05:00
and that they would just kind of poof out just a bit.
05:02
So I would tend to reach for any leave-in conditioners.
05:06
Ceremonia makes a very clean leave-in conditioner.
05:10
I literally love Orbe shampoo and conditioner.
05:13
Big, big fan of that.
05:15
And then you know what I'm still using
05:17
after all these years, like growing up in Brooklyn
05:19
and I cannot let it go?
05:21
I love Eco Styling Gel.
05:22
Is it clean?
05:24
No.
05:24
Will the alcohol probably strip your hair out?
05:27
Yeah, but you know what?
05:28
It holds, it holds.
05:29
If you want a good slick back, Eco Styling Gel, 2.99,
05:33
big jug, you can't go wrong.
05:35
Mental health is a really big thing for me.
05:37
Self care I'm really into,
05:39
especially because I have a very busy schedule.
05:41
On top of that, I'm a very present mom and wife.
05:44
So I have a lot going on.
05:46
So for me, I prioritize my time.
05:49
I get up at five o'clock in the morning.
05:51
It's, trust me, I was not always like this.
05:53
I used to be a club rat, okay?
05:55
But now I get up at five o'clock in the morning
05:57
and what I typically do is cherish the moments
06:00
that I have alone.
06:01
Just, I wanna be present.
06:02
I will not check my phone for at least an hour
06:05
when I wake up.
06:05
I usually will journal for about 15 to 20 minutes
06:08
while listening to affirmations
06:10
and then I'll plug that off, grab a cup of tea,
06:13
and then I'll just meditate for a good 15, 20 minutes
06:16
if I can get that in.
06:17
So I sit and I visualize exactly what I want out of my day
06:21
and what I expect.
06:22
I'm huge into manifestation, laws of attraction,
06:25
and I just really believe in positivity
06:27
and what you put out there, you get back.
06:30
And it keeps me grounded and at the end of the day,
06:32
it actually really does keep me sane.
06:34
Thank you so much for watching.
