Well, it's been a little while since an update. Unfortunately my internet connection has been severely lacking and I haven't been able to post on blogger for so long.
I've been working hard, although a little lax in the exercise department. I've managed to do a bit of walking and riding my bike, but it's been deadly hot (for exercise at least), and considering we have no a/c I'm afraid it's been a major setback. I really can't believe we on to our 6th week of temps well over 90 F. In all 15 years I've been back in NY I've barely counted 6 days that hot during any summer.
But the good news is, I've been eating lots of fuit, salads, and smoothies. This is my green smoothie...spinach, strawberries and a banana. Almonds can be thrown in for protein (I own a Vitamix, but I don't think I'd try them with a normal blender). I have found when I'm eating well, that I have more energy, and my muscles are not sore and weak. Today it cooled down a little, so hopefully we'll get a break, I'm badly in need of some stretching. Back on the treadmill this week! Wish me luck!


Love the Vitamix. I enjoy a green drink everyday, and love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words over on my blog, I really appreciate it.
It has been beastly hot here as well. I cut back on bike riding to work but started up again this morning.
ReplyDeleteI love fruits and vegetables, and your smoothie looks refreshing!
ReplyDeleteIt has been so unbearably hot. Kudos to you for still working out!
ReplyDeleteI must say that this green smoothie, though it looks odd, sounds amazing. Add the almonds and you can't go wrong.
