Tuesday Ramblings & Pics

I am starting to feel "back to normal" today! Yay! I go to my spin class in a little while and I can actually say I missed it this weekend! Never in my life would I have thought I could "miss" exercise. Don't get me wrong, I went to the gym in Chicago AND I did the 5k but it wasn't my routine. I love traveling but it always throws me off and I crave my routine.

I am addicted to those True Orange/Lime/Lemon packets that were in our goody bags! So good. I have never seen these here and will be looking where I can get them as I am down to my last one. Anyone know where I can get them?

As I said yesterday, I didn't gain or lose during the 4 days I was in Chicago. While I was not over-eating in any way shape or form, I was not eating as good as I do at home. That being said, yesterday I was back to my 80g of protein and my calories were 900. The scale rewarded me with a 2 lb drop from last weeks weigh-in. I'll take that!

Here are some more pics from Chicago! Enjoy!

I hear ya on the routine being thrown. We did a bunch of mini trips this summer instead of one or two big trips and each time it would take about 2 weeks to really get back to normal. And because we were doing all the minis...well, by the time we got normal back, it was time to fly again. I won't be doing that again. BOOBs, on the other hand, would be a great reason to throw the good ol routine out. So glad you had fun! The pics look great! And congrats on losing weight in spite of all the reasons not to. That's awesome!

It was so great meeting you Jacquie! It was short but, so much fun. I'm addicted to the True Lemon too (that's why I got it for the bags). I can buy it in the grocery store by the sugar packs, buy you can also buy it off their website.

Awesome to have met you in Chicago, Jacquie! I haven't even checked out my swag bag yet (well, perhaps a peek)! Would you believe they confiscated my WINE at the airport on the way home??? Bastards! Don't they KNOW I'm a wino? And BOOBs wine, no less. The nerve!
I can't believe you worked out in Chicago! You're my hero!!!
The weather took a turn the day after we (Camille & I) got back, & it's actually quite nice now (cooling in the eves). I hope this last & I'll be on my way to more consistent weight loss. I hate the gym... LOL
Hope to see you at BOOBs 2011!
Blessings,
Robin at Band on the Run

So incredibly fantastic to finally meet you in person Jacquie. Didn't get to spend nearly enough time together, but the little bit we did was enough for me to know how special you are. Hope to see you on one of your trips to NY. xoxo

Oh, I crave routine, too. Chicago was beyond words for me, but I have to admit it's nice to come home. Good for you staying true to yourself with exercise and good food. I think you balance beautifully.

Hi Jacquie

thanks so much for posting on my blog. Nice to 'meet' you. I'm actually in Nassau so we're getting the same cruddy weather as Florida is right about now!
Great pics, btw. Hoping I make it to BOOBS 2011!!!!!
