So as I am waiting for my mom to return from getting the oil changed in her Lexi, I figured I would blog about vacation. I know some of you may be wondering how my eating/exercising is going and this is how it has been. Food has been OK. I have been eating a healthy breakfast (usually a banana or cereal). Lunch has been a turkey hoagie from Wawa (may not be the BEST choice, but its better than what I could be eating) and dinner has been touch and go. I've been trying to make healthier choices, although I did have one of my cheat meals (a cheesesteak) last night for dinner. The cardio has been the challenge. Today is the first day where I don't feel jet-lagged, and although I have not made a diligent time to do cardio, I've been trying to walk everywhere I can. I plan on getting lots of cardio in the next couple of days. It is hard to stay on track, especially cause people want to go out to eat and do things but I am trying my best. I do feel very guilty that I haven't exercised yet and kinda feel disappointed with myself. I am enjoying being home with my family though.
So what have I been up to so far? Well on Thursday before I left, I went and experienced my first gay club (no I am not gay, but I have great friends who are and I will go and support them any time: MAKE GAY MARRIAGE LEGAL IN EVERY STATE!! :-)) and boy what a blast it was! It was the first time I felt like myself and I didn't feel self-conscious or ugly. I danced, met some great people and loved that I wasn't judged. Definitely going to go back :-).
I left for PA on Friday, got in around 12:20 am. Went to sleep. Saturday I spent the morning/afternoon at the Reading Terminal Market in Philly with Christa. That place is AWESOME. Tons of unique foods, an experience in itself for sure. Then we headed up north to E. Stroudsburg where my dad and step-mom live. My dad made homemade spaghetti and meatballs (my fav! YUM) and we went out to the casino where I lost money for the first time ever on Roulette. I was bummed. We met up with Christa's friend Lauren and hung out for a bit. On Sunday, we just hung around the house, I went and picked up my rental car, got to see my mom and then Christa headed back to Philly. :-( I had my first ever lobster dinner and can proudly say that I know how to take apart and eat lobster! YAY! Monday, I got to learn how to golf with my dad. That was an exprience in itself, I am left handed and have big boobs. It was challenging to say the least. It was nice to be able to share that time with my dad, whose favorite thing in the world is golf. :-) I learned how to chip and to drive the ball. I want to go again, and MAN am I sore! I feel like I did a whole boxing workout with Brooks!!! Yesterday, I hung around the house, got my nails done (which I needed BADLY) and then went to visit my mom. We ordered my favorite meal (A chicken cheesesteak from Mivajo's) and just hung out. My stepdad is making me a huge cake from scratch and it is tye-dye pink and black!!!! I'm so excited to see the finished product!!! Today we are off to Mystic, CT (me, mom and sissy) til Friday. It should be fun! I promise to blog and post pictures later! Have to run!
