Before After

Offically Fall

OK it was 50 something this morning I couldn't find my clean bike pants so I ended up waiting until the afternoon to go for a ride.  I got to the gym early and did 12 minutes on the treadmill and then the kettle ball class - well today it was pretty tough and for the whole 45 minutes.  I was glad because some days he doesn't work us for the whole time and I feel like I am not getting my money's worth.  Well today we did a circut of 5 different things on each side 20 times the 1st time 15 and then 10 - it was a killer then after lunch I went for a 1 hour 20 minute bike ride - ok my legs are really killing me so I am pretty sure they are going to hurt tomorrow.  It has been a good eating day too had a JC burito for lunch and salsbury steak for dinner.  I had a great salad at lunch and dinner.  Last week I reduced a whole bottle of balsamic and so now I drizzle the balsamic reduction on my tomatoes - Yum.  

A request for more info about my trip next week.  We are going to Cannes for sure because that part of the trip we are meeting some friends - he is going for work and the wife is tagging along for free.  We were in Provence and took a day trip to Nice and Cannes about 5 years ago - this will be 5 days there but we are also planning day trips.  Monaco for sure and maybe to Italy one of the days.  We know we are gong to Paris we are just not sure if it is at the beginning or the end.  We still need to figure out one other destination maybe Burgundy.  There is a really nice looking pool at the hotel in Cannes so I may just spend one day by the pool.  We usually go do wine stuff but also go to museums/historical sites.  There are a couple of Roman ruins in Provence also I think there is a really interesting old monastery.  I will let you in on more details once we figure out what we are doing.  The scale has been moving down I am hoping for a good pound tomorrow morning after the workout today.
