Well I got a good suprize in my e-mail last night! A plane ticket conf. flying to NYC for Thanksgiving. My friend Scott lives there and want's me to come visit.
I fly on Thursday, come home Monday. I am so excited. I needed to get away and I can SHOP!
The drawbacks. It is NYC and the Fooooooooood!
We are going to a broadway play Friday, the Knicks game Saturday, a jazz club Sunday and of course will be shopping my butt off the entire time. The one good thing is I will be doing a lot of walking. Since he knows how important the gym is to me, he looked up all the Bally's in Manhattan and he will take me and pick me up.
But, how to stay OP? For the flight there and back and the in between times I am going to take some protien bars, 100 calorie packs and a nurti grain bar here and there. Try and stick to some salads and stuff like that.
As much as I would like to I cannot drink while I am there. Everytime I do I gain no matter what.
Any suggestions on some ways to enjoy the city but not go overboard?
I have a journal and honestly I journal everything that goes into my mouth. I also journal my thoughts about food and all of the stuff I do at the gym.
Any thoughts would be helpful.

Woo hoo!

I am pretty excited :)
I think it will be fun, the shopping OMG.
I cannot wait.
I know I am going to Soho, because I want to go to Anna Sui's store. I have been there before and I adore her hair foofies. They make my hair look cute. :)
So I am going to go there and I want to go to Louis Vuitton there as well. I have a Louis Vuitton here but I can imagine their's is bigger.
I know the salad route, I am thinking maybe some fish, but I don't order it that much. Maybe some shrimp or something. I will just have to behave. I don't want to fall off the wagon.
We are having Thanksgiving dinner out. I am weighing in before I leave on Wednesday and I usually aloow myself my one meal a week on Thursday anyway. So I may splurge a little on Thanksgiving.

He is giving me a few choices. He is emailing them to me tonight.
I will let you know and we can choose one :) I don't know much about that stuff.
I am excited to see the Knicks play as well. I like sports.
Oh! and this is SOOOOOOOO lame but Bally's owns the club Crunch as well. There is a Crunch gym right down the road from Scott's. So I am going I guess its a really hip gym. I am a dork I am excited about going to a gym in a different city!
I bought one of my bags in the Scottsdale Fashion Square. I used to live off Camelback.
We have one here which is across the way from Prada so its an internal stuggle everytime since I love them both.
I have 10 Louis Vuitton bags which equates to buying a house in a third world country LOL.
I love them, I am addicted to them in fact and its shameless since I know it is just about the name. Ask me if I care.
I have a few pieces of jewlery from Tiffany's and have never been into the store in NYC but I will be going.
I am a girly girl when it comes to shopping but that is where it ends. Put me in a pair of yoga pants a University of Texas sweatshirt and I am good to go, of course carrying a designer bag LOL.
lol...you're so cute.

I have two Dooney and Burke bags.
One black "IT" bag that is a small shoulder bag with the candy colored zipper. I NEVER use it. Up for grabs if you want it Kestin. It is small but way cute.

I carry that one a lot it is a fun bag ;0)
You guys have me beat on the shopping.
LOL too cute Shawna.
You are better off this crap gets expensive LOL
I am shameless. I am a slave to "labels" Only when it comes to shoes and bags.
Hell I have a pair of new cords on from Old Navy I got on clearance for 13$ and a pair of Louis Vuitton boots on I spent $800 on LOL. My bonuses always go for some self indulgent cap I will never need.
But I figure get it out of my system before I start having babies.
