It was a hot and sweaty weekend up here in Boston. Saturday was 96 degrees at 3 in the afternoon when I was driving down to Rhode Island.
I started my Saturday off right though, walking on the treadmill for 30 minutes and then doing Hip Hop Abs Cardio Level 2. It was a super charged workout designed to cut through any fat or bloating I had due to the fact that I have been eating everything in sight lately. Seriously. Did it work? I don't think so, I still feel bloated!
I came home from RI and put the kids to bed. Then I went to bed because I was exhausted from it being so hot.
Sunday morning I got up and went to the beach. Bright and early! It was a good beach morning, but not if you were going in the afternoon. It was almost as hot on Sunday as it was on Saturday. My sister and I left for the beach at 8, took a scenic tour of Ocean Drive in Newport and ended up at Easton Beach. It was beautiful! We had no kids with us so we felt free to toast in the sun. I got pretty toasted; a nice crispy red! Ooops! We left at about 12:30 and stopped in a store in downtown Newport called... well I forget, but it was a great little health food store. It was like a mini-Whole Foods. I got a Chicken Salad over greens. The chicken salad was made with "vegenise" instead of regular mayo- so thankfully I knew it would be at leat dairy free. Honestly, it was the BEST salad I've had in a long time.
My sister got a curried chicken sandwich (obviously not gluten free, but it was made with the same "vegenise") and she loved it!
I also picked up some gazpacho to eat for lunch today. It is just as hot, so I want something COLD that I can eat. YUM!
Happy Monday!
