HELLO BOSTON!!!!!

Good Morning and Happy Sunday.

I am officially settled into my new place in Boston, and I am excited!!!! The last day has been a bit hectic with moving (flying from Texas to Boston), and then moving in ALL BY MYSELF to my new place. I haven't had anytime to work out during the past 2 days and I've been too busy to eat a normal meal.

I LOVE BOSTON THUS FAR. The city seems to be a VERY health conscious city...strange enough since I've been here...I've only seen 1 fast food place (McDonald's), and it was FAR...that's something new, usually every city I've been in is plastered and infected with fast food chains (Burger King, chik-fil-a, McDonalds, Rally's, KFC, etc).  I think thats a VERY good thing for me.

Yesterday after moving in I immediately went shopping for room accessories as well as for food. I KEPT IT healthy, buying fruits and vegetables (for my detox smoothie), almonds, chicken breasts, almond milk, egg substitute, and treated my self to mini cookies mix (3 cookies=150 calories) to curb my sweet tooth.  I am determined to TRY  to ACTIVELY EAT HEALTHY, and to eat UNHEALTHILY scarcely and in moderation. Last Night I went and celebrated a friends birthday with him, and it was my official night on the town in Boston. It included LOTS of debauchery, and I TASTED MY FIRST EAST COAST LARGE PIZZA...IT WAS DELICIOUS.


This morning I woke up and weighed in at 233.6, with a total lose of but 8lbs since Monday (I was 241). I was extremely surprised that I had still managed to lose weight since I hadn't worked out, and I hadn't been eaten regularly..but WHO I AM TO TEMPT THE FATES haha. This morning I got myself back in order with a detox smoothie consisting of unsweetened almond milk, grapes, spinach, carrots, a banana, pineapples and strawberries. (1 serving-about 175 calories). And I am determined to pave a new running path.

Since it's my first 2 days in Boston, I don't know how to get anywhere yet, nor do I know how to get to the park for a run, but I am going to try to find a running path either tonight or tomorrow.

I am enjoying myself in Boston, but I am glad that I am still cognizant of my fitness goals and able to make sure I am still keeping on track. I hope and think that Boston will be good for me!
