66 || FITNESS MAGAZINE || DECEMBER 2015 metabolism because it makes your body work around the clock . That%u2019s basically my line. In addition I will be helping with nutrition and giving exercise ideas and overall health inspiration. The line is for both men and women; the lotions and creams work for both, and I have a line of clothing for men as well.MFM: Describe your creative process for designing? And how did you choose sportswear?TD: What makes my clothing stand out is that the specially designed material LiPOTEX is high quality because it is a special fabric and the other thing is the way it looks. We can wear this clothing anywhere. It doesn%u2019t look like you are wearing something that is for weight loss. You can wear it out. Like today while I%u2019m talking to you, I%u2019m wearing my pants with high heels and a little jacket. The more you wear it the better results you get. Essentially it helps to reshape your body, and it%u2019s important to note that it is not intended for people who are obese, but rather it%u2019s for people who want to lose their last 10 to 25 pounds. We have to be realistic- it%u2019s not for miracles, it%u2019s for reality. It has to work for me in order for me to sell it. I try it on myself first, and then I pass it on. I%u2019m very excited, and I want to go into more beauty products afterwards.MFM: You were or are the Director of Marketing for Elite Brazil Magazine-Tell MOST Mag about that position and what you learned from it? TD: I am still. It%u2019s like a luxury magazine from Brazil and they are gaining a lot of ground here in the U.S. My part with the marketing is to act as an agent for them and find advertisement and content. It%u2019s mainly in Miami, and has been a great experience so far. It%u2019s a great magazine, and they are just getting the market in Miami and New York. It will be a great success.MFM: Most quirky hobby or favorite pastime that you love to do?TD: Definitely a lot of Pilates and anything related to Pilates and yoga; I also used to swim a lot. But other than fitness, I like traveling and boating. I love to explore new places, and love anything related to the ocean lifestyle. MFM: What do you eat on a typical day? Do you enjoy cooking?
