Hey Blog Friends.
Sorry for the lapse in posts. I just got back from a late night jaunt at the gym which felt really good. I haven't gone since last week, so this was definitely important for me to do. I got lots of activity points this past week, mowing the lawn, and walking around Manhattan for example, but I didn't make it to the gym. This was also my final vacation of the summer and I maintained so that was a small success. Mom and I hit up the city Sunday-Monday and as she put it, put a nice dent into the city's wine supply. :) Our Sunday night meal was epic. We ate at a place called Angus McIndoe's which was literally up the street from our hotel. We split this meal for two that was 32oz of prime rib, 3 sides, soup/salad, dessert and (get this) unlimited wine. The wine was the house wine, but the house wine was a Carmenere which is from Chile so I was happy. Oh man that food was excellent. We also saw "Catch Me If You Can" which was simply phenomenal thanks to the performances by the leads. Norbert Leo Butz and Aaron Tveit are star quality performers and to see them at their craft in person... oh man there is nothing like live theatre!
Monday was just as great a day as Sunday, starting off with breakfast in Times Square (literally, at a little table in the pedestrian area!) and right on through massages, manis, delicious lunches (a pitcher of sangria), and the top of the rock. We made it home, promptly crashed and have the pictures to show a great time was had. These pics, as with the others from trips this summer, will be on FB so you can check them out there.
I start school in less than a week. I am starting to wrap my head around this course I'm teaching, and I think my schedule is pretty much set for SU. What I have to do now is figure out exactly when I'll be going to the gym, and how to fit food into my life. I really need some deliciously simple recipes. I make cooking really complicated sometimes when I have to remember that meat and starch is all I really want most of the time. Anywho, if I can knock out some fruit for breakfast, a smart lunch, and have stuff ready for dinner, then I fill in with snacks, I'll be golden. This is the kind of routine and schedule I think works best for me. I will hopefully find out soon because I do not want to go back to how I was. I've still only lost about 12 lbs but it's enough to see and feel a difference. I just wish I had more exciting news to blog about in the world of weight loss. For 2 months now I've been saying the same things. Well for that, I apologize and hope to bring some exciting news of pounds falling off in the near future.
