Institute of Integrative Nutrition Announcement!
Are you interested in attending IIN this fall? I just found out that the school is giving me two $500 scholarships to give to friends. I am giving them away on a first-come, first-served basis. One has already been claimed so contact me if are interested in the second one!
Equinox!
I tried 2 new classes this morning! I went to PureMuscle and Abdominals. They were both really good! The abs class was extremely hard! I could not do half of it but still enjoyed the class! There was a lot of Core Fusion curl which I am horrible at! We used a block and a weighted ball for some of the class too. I was dying but would love some stronger abs! I will be back!
After the gym I refueled with a SuperFoods Smoothie!
It contained beets, kale, ginger, papaya, carrots, pineapple, strawberries, mango, and banana. Delicious! I felt the need for a little detox since I ate at chain restaurants for dinner the past 2 nights! Last night was Applebee’s (2 for 1 drinks!) I had 2 Hurricanes.
I started with a house salad.
I got the Grilled Shrimp and Island Rice. Really good!
The night before that was Friday’s (half-priced and STRONG drinks!)
I had 3 Cosmos. I could not walk. One Cosmo was free since the bartender is the coolest guy ever! I got the usual Cobb Salad. Loved the big chunk of avocado!
Tonight I should probably cook but I’m sure I’ll end up at Whole Foods since it is intenSati Thursday! I haven’t gone since Monday so I am going through some serious withdrawal. I hope to wake up for the early class tomorrow too! I am loving my Equinox membership! I sat on the subway last night with 5 different schedules highlighting every class I want to try. There are so many options. I will report back here every time I try a new one!
Did you enter my Uncle Sam’s Cereal giveaway yet? I am choosing a winner tomorrow!

It is a distance learning program from now on so you can do it from anywhere! They give you an ipod with all of the classes. I will email you shortly.

I love when classes are so hard on the abs that you practically can’t do them. Ab burn is the best feeling ever!
Too bad I have school, marathon training, and LSATs this fall, otherwise I would love to study nutrition! Happy almost weekend!

I would like to try more gym classes, I love my hot yoga and I’ve done step and spin, but I really want to try body pump, next time I’m in NY, Equinox!!
I also want to try a superfood juice!! I’m not really a huge juice/smoothie fan, but they are so healthy, I’m trying to *train* myself to like them! Plus, I love, love ginger, so I think it would be a fun thing to try!

Yum! That smoothie looks delicious!
I was trying to go through your archives, but couldn’t find the one where you were talking about the price debate between gym memberships.
I’m moving to NYC in about 2 weeks and would love to check out Equinox! You always make it sound so great!
BTW, what Fridays to you go to? I need befriend this bartender you always talk about!!
