I'm in the middle of my 10 day business trip in the currently not so warm and not so sunny California Apparently I brought the "bad" weather with me, because it snowed in San Francisco for the first time in 30 years. Now when I say "snowed" I mean there was frost on cars and a few flakes fell. However that's a MAJOR event here. The local news is discussing the "winter weather conditions". They actually shut down a part of the interstate for a few hours this morning due to "possible ice" - hilarious.
When I'm not watching Californians prepare for "Snowmagedon", I've been super busy at work, running around like a mad woman. Working long hours and living in a hotel have put my fitness and eating plan to the test, but I'm trying hard to stay on track. I make it a point to wake up early and drag my butt to the gym each morning because I know after a long, stressful day, my hotel room will be calling my name.
Eating well becomes challenge when you don't have a kitchen, so I'm watching my portions and trying to eat smart. It's tough to remember to eat and drink often enough when you're caught up in your day, so I've learned to grab things on the go, and this week I've found a new favorite:
Chocolate Chip Clif Bar
Yum, yum, yum. Is this thing a cookie? Clif Bars are the "big brother" to Luna Bars (same company, I guess this is the manly version of their energy bar) and these puppies are so good. Unlike some energy bars, you can taste the real ingredients (oatmeal, chocolate chunks, maybe some cinnamon?) and they keep you full for a reasonable amount of time. Pair this fella with a banana in the morning, and you've got a quick breakfast on the go.
Today I've got the day off and have plans to visit San Francisco for the first time. I'm going to be touristy and ridiculous and can't wait to tell you all about it.
*MUAH*
