Catch Up!!!

Call the blog police, I have fallin’ behind and not blogged in almost 24 hours.  I know, I know…everyone just calm down.  I am sure you were all glued to your computer waiting right?!?!  ;-)

Munched on an amazing mix of goodies in between teaching Spin class, and coaching my running program:

Puffins, CHILEAN RAISINS (whoa-my-gah…delicious), and Dried Pineapple

Great fuel to run with!  My little runners are doing SO great, they all improved their time on the 5K route…some by 6-7 minutes!  So awesome.  I actually managed to remember my Garmin this time around, and by the time I had run the route back and forth encouraging/SCREAMING, I had ran 8 miles!  Craziness!  So much fun though.

After the program ended, I headed to bulk food paradise, aka Sam’s Club with Maggie and Rossy!

Gotta love massive amounts of bulk goodness.

“Giant” is right…these berries are the size of a small infant!

Plus, where else can you buy fresh fruit/veggies AND a Hot Tub?!?!

Bwahahahahahaha.

We were killing time before meeting our friend Brittani for dinner, so we went to the obvious.

Move over, Vanna.  Maggie is taking your job.  Look at that technique!!!

Once we stalked each aisle in the Earth Feezy, it was time for some dinnah!

Jack’s is a little local place that has just about everything/anything.  They have steaks and burgers….veggie options…mexican…killer desserts….pretty much all you could want!

Plus, you get to embrace your inner child (I try to daily) and write on the tables!  Sah-weet!

Writing on the table + $3.00 Sangrias = Greeeeeat times.

We also scored some *free* Chips/Salsa/Guac goodness from our amazing waitress!  Check these bad boys out:

I always order the same thing here.  It is delicious, filling, and you just can’t go wrong with a good wrap, right?

As if the veggie goodness wasn’t abundant enough…I got broccoli instead of fries (I have been “cheating” way too much lately…and it is way too hard for my to portion control fries)

Mmmmmmm.  Goodness.

After dinner Maggie and I made up for seeing a HORRIBLE movie (see my last post) by seeing a fantastic one!

OMG…amazing.

I am totally into the whole Greek/Roman mythology aspect, and the action was EPIC!  I am a total special effects/sci-fi/horror movie nerd, so this movie was most certainly up my alley.

We also snuck in some NATURAL popcorn goodness, so we wouldn’t be tempted by the greasy kind at the theatre:

Tasty, huh??

Now….through the power of blog-o-vision…we fast forward to this morning, where those darn Chilean Raisins were calling my name for breakfast!

I’m not entirely sure what makes these different from normal raisins, but Chile…..I love you for producing these little bundles of raisin joy.

I made a quick and cold cereal bowl with the raisins, some Honey Puffins, Granola, and Almond Milk.

Yummmm!

Grabbed this out the door, Mondays are cah-raaaaazy with Express Sculpt, KidFit, and Spin.  Made a quick smoothie for lunch with oneeeeeee main ingredient:

Blogger Boy Confession:

I randomly weighed myself today around 11:00am, and it was not a number I wanted to see.  As much confidence as I try to exude, it is amazing to me how I can feel 110% one second, and about 34% after I weigh myself.  I know…it is probably all mental….could be water weight……”muscle” weight….etc, etc.  I preach it to people all the time…but when it happens to me…I get so down on myself!

Do you have “down” days simply because of the stupid number on the scale?!?!  Why are we so obsessed with a number??  So frustrating.

Not gonna let it get me down.  Just had to vent.

OK………time to down some spinach….teach some classes, and get my Monday back under control.  ;-)  Mellow Mushroom pizza later…that can ONLY help my mood, right?!?!
