Hoi Girls!!

So... I have been on the road all week and I think I have done fairly well considering I have had to eat out for every meal... Here is how my week shaped up:

Sat: 45 mins elliptical, strength training for 30-40 mins various exercises, 300 situps
Sun: 30 mins elliptical, 20 mins treadmill uphill walk, strength training for 30-40 mins, 300 situps
Mon: situps (not sure how many but over 100 for sure)
Tues: Elliptical 45 mins
Weds: none
Thurs: treadmill 1 hour, 300 situps
Fri: none (unless you count lugging my suitcase all over town exercise - it sure felt like it.. not to mention the lifting it into the overhead!)

drinks - 10... I am traveling and entertaining and it was a shite week so this is actually not so bad!!

bad food - 4 onion rings (but just the fried bread part - as you all know, I can't eat the onion!), some chips and guac, and 3 little squares of milk chocolate (they kept leaving it for me on my pillow in my penthouse suite at the W in LA!)... MM, you will be happy to know that as promised, I did not have ANY CC this week!! :)

Now, if when I get home, the scale does not move to the downside, i will not be so happy.. luckily there are no scales here in Cali so i need to wait till I get home to weigh in... I better be happy!!

One thing I have done since starting this whole thing is cut out coffee!! I no longer drink it (though I do crave it every now and again when I smell a yummy cup as I really love the stuff) and have replaced it with green tea... I have actually grown to love it... (tho I do need to put in a splenda to improve the taste but I did that with my coffee as well).. it has far less caffeine than coffee but I think I am drinking twice as much as I did coffee so still getting caffeine therefore no headaches... the Tazo Zen is p tasty (has a minty flavor) as is the Tazo Green Tips (tastes more like a traditional green tea)... and it is supposed to help speed up your metabolism (I need all the help I can get!) and burn fat (again, need plenty of help!)... But I also feel great! Maybe it is my imagination but I feel like I have more energy.. or maybe it is because I am finally doing more cardio.. not sure but I am happy with it nonetheless!!!

I wish I was in NYC to play with your girls but I am still here on the west coast... Went to the gym this morning and have one day down on all our targets! :) And now I am going to go to the pool to relax and take in some sun.. gorgeous here!! And maybe I will swim a few laps as well... get in another round of cardio! Have fun at pilates/yoga/the gym on Monday without me!! I am back in NYC on Tues morning... Kimby, if you like pilates, I am looking for a partner to take privates with.. I used to go and LOVED it!! But it just got too expensive to do alone... Or if anyone else wants to do it, let me know!!

ok... have a good one girls!!
