Well Lent is over and I DID IT!! I didn't eat Pizza or French Fries for 40 days!! I am so proud of myself, it was hard and there were a lot of temptations, but I did it!! So on Easter the plan was to go and eat both pizza and french fries...well NOTHING was open on Easter!! I totally didn't think of that! So we found out that Papa John's was open and so was McDonald's...pretty sucky pizza and french fries...but oh well. Guess it was kind of anticlimactic. But I am still pumped that I didn't succumb to the yummyness for 40 days!
San Antonio is going good, day one of class went well and I am beat. The gym at the hotel sucks. I read online before I came here that it had a "fitness center" with "free weights", "weight machines", and cardio equipment. Well that is crap. There is a really nice treadmill and elliptical, and a really sucky weight machine (all in one thingy) with no straps, bars or nothing!! So I was pissed...I was supposed to scarily lift legs today and then I ended up just running on the treadmill. So when I got back from class today I asked the front desk if there was another gym or Y near by and there was a Y for $5 a day. SWEET. So I went and lifted and it was great, they even have pool...though unlike the hotel site said, we don't get free access...I think I am going to email and complain when I get home. But oh well. I am getting my lifting in all week now and going to get to swim some...as soon as I can find a bathing suit, as I forgot mine. Hopefully I can find one tomorrow.
So the workout is on, eating is going as well as can be expected for being away from home where I can't cook for myself. So I am going to try and get some extra cardio in too.
It is supposed to be 80 here tomorrow, I am pumped. I love warm weather!
Thanks to all of the A-Team for the positive comments and sweet emails! I will write more tomorrow!! Keep up the great work!!
Until tomorrow...
Adios :)

Wow -- I'm so proud that you didnt use the lame 'weight machines' as an excuse not to work out! I bet the Y is worth the 5 bucks a day :) AND... 80 degrees? I'm jealous! Its freezing in Philly today... brrrrr! I cant wait to get back to the south haha
I am so freaking proud of you for actually ASKING for a gym while out of town. I've only known one other person that stuck to her workouts while away from home. You totally rock!!!!!!!
Aloha,

P.S. Don't wait until you go home to write the hotel - go to the front desk and ask for the manager on duty and tell them immediately. Trust me!
