Friday is almost here!! I am really ready for the weekend!!

This morning for breakfast I cooked up my egg whites and spinach. I then decided to try mixing the oat bran and rolled oats to see if I liked that consistency. It was pretty good but again…i think I will stick to my rolled oats. I like them much better by themselves. I had some fruit and then off to the gym!

My gym was closed today because of the Jewish holiday(i work out at a community center) so I headed over to Gold’s because I have a guest pass there. It is funny, but I always get a little anxious at a new gym. I don’t know anyone, i don’t know where equipment is and basically it is out of my comfort zone in my regular gym. I went in and got started with Bi’s and Tri’s. I was able to figure out where everything I needed was and I had an AWESOME arm workout. It really kicked ass, so I was happy about that. I hopped on the elliptical after that and got going. About 25 minutes into it I saw the heavens open up and angels started singing. What did I see?? The STAIR MILL. I totally didn’t think about the fact that this gym would probably have a stair mill (as opposed to the stair master, the stair mill has actually steps) I finished up the 30 minutes and ran over and hopped on the stair mill and did 30 minutes on there at Level 9(of 20). It was a good butt kicker(literally) and I enjoyed rocking out and playing around on my phone like usual. Stair stepper/mill and incline walking allow me to mess with my phone while not hindering my cardio…so I love it! While i was on the machine…a VERY familiar face walked by. It was the guy who played Cameron Diaz’s boss on “What happens in Vegas” He was working out with a trainer and apparently he lives in my area. Wasn’t aware of that.

After the workout, my friend George met me to get coffee and hang out. We ended up at a breakfast place next door to the gym called “The Breakfast Joynt” They had a healthy menu where I could order PLAIN EGG WHITES…cooked in Pam. It was like a dream come true!! The server was SO nice and assured me they would not use any oil or anything. So i got my spinach and egg whites($7 for 6 egg whites..total ripoff but i was finally able to eat out somewhere rather than sit and watch someone eat haha)

I just had some Oikos with strawberries and blueberries and a sweet potato. I have class today so it will be another late night, but I am not quite as tired as I thought I would be. (Ended up going to a friends house last night and wasn’t in bed until about 12:30)

One more thing! Instead of the pool yesterday, my friend Danny invited me to go hike Camelback. I do Camelback all the time, but he showed me a different way to go up(off trail) that was REALLY REALLY cool…I felt like spider woman crawling up the mountain.(Not as dangerous as it sounds lol) but when we got to a certain part..there was a CAVE that we could just sit and hang out in. It was SOOO gorgeous. Here is the view…..
