although I do not feel like i've lost weight (not in the mood for any crazy low cal diets this vacation!), I have definitely been more active this week and I have had a sore body since even Tuesday to prove it! lol...
My friend invited me up to visit her, like an hour away, so I said yes to go today...so, now, i'm trying to get lots of yoga and some cardio in this AM/early afternoon before I leave to see her around 2 or 3pm...i feel sorta rushed, but then again, it's nice to have people to visit and things to do, no?

^^^^ I AM ON A NICE STAYCATION ^^^^ I like this vacation very much because I am spending it exactly how I want to: exercising a nice amount everyday, getting very important things done like booking my weekend Toronto flight tickets for my 30th bday in September...and getting an awesome deal...taking care of serious banking...dermatologist/dental appts...just doing things that need concentration and/or time committments that I don't have with my usually crazy schedule.
I am happy to have this wonderful week off. Later in the week, thurs/fri, will be spent seriously on vacation: going to special remote beaches that require a short ferry ride to get to. They are the cleanest, most beautiful beaches in the Long Island vicinity. Also, they are very touristy, people do vacation on them, most of the people who live on this island, FIRE ISLAND, have summer homes and live elsewhere in the winter. The affluent, sophisticated type are well accounted for on these islands...but out of towners also love to come here. Also, dogs are allowed, if you have one, on the beach! :-)
6:45am bar, fiber one, milk: 450
9:30am snacking: coffee 60, avocado/veggies 250, sauteed veggies 100, more sauteed veggies 100, more sauteed veggies 100: oopsies with the veggies, but tasty. 610, alright.
total today: around 2050, and pretty darn healthy!!!
EXERCISE: 3 mi jog/walk in AM, bootcamp class for an hour, biking to gym (like 10-15 min each way), full weight routine at gym. GOOD exercise, as you can tell. bootcamp class - I got a cool Amazon Local deal for two weeks, and I actually planned to attend during this staycation, it's part of my staycation fun activities!!!! :-)

Happy Saturday: I am officially on a "staycation." I do have some appts and fitness classes lined up, which the appts include the dentist and are very important, but on Thurs/Fri of the next week nothing planned except the beach at least one of those two days with my best friend...also this weekend Sunday with her...should be a good week to exercise and sleep better, that's my only two goals. Sleep well (not a crazy vacation where i'm up all hours!) and exercise more.
Hour Massage at Massage Envy (from an excellent, very seasoned, practiced therapist...) at 9am (early, but only time available so i'll take it!...), cardio exercise after at park or neighborhood riding bike, pick up lunch for grandma and visit her for lunch, exercise more at park or neighborhood riding bike, shower, meet friends for dinner. that's today's plan :-) maybe a stop at the supermarket for some small items on the way home tonight from friend's...
