Staying on Track During the Holidays
On Wednesday, my family came to pick me up. We drove to the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and stayed in a really nice hotel. The next day was Thanksgiving; we got up and went to have breakfast. Unfortunately, it was a buffet style breakfast. I had one sausage link, one piece of bacon, a mini blue berry muffin, a small bowl of cereal, and a little bit of eggs. The food that was pre-prepared was all cooked in butter and not healthily prepared.
After breakfast we drove around in the mountains, and ended up canceling our dinner reservation. We ate Thanksgiving dinner at The Vintage Press restaurant in Visalia.
After dinner, we drove back home. I was able to see one of my best friends. He and I went to Starbucks. I ordered a Light Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino, It was 190 cal and 1 gram of fat. We went back to my house and took pictures and then he went home.
On Friday my sister and I went to the gym. I ran 2 miles in 30 minutes. After cardio we did a 30 minute workout routine. Later that night, I went to the Irvine Spectrum with one of my other friends who I had not seen since September. It was good being able to see her. She had to go home so I called my other best friend and she came and picked me up. My 2 girl best friends and I went to CVS and planned a holiday party that they will be throwing at the end of December. It was a lot of fun to hang out with them.
Saturday evening, I ran 3.6 miles without stopping. That was a big accomplishment for me. Saturday I went to my friend’s house and slept over. Her boxer, Nike, just gave birth to 7 puppies. So we were playing with them all night.
Sunday morning I went home and packed my stuff, getting ready to come back to AOS. I found out that on Sunday the article that was written about me was published on the front page of the Orange County Register. I was surprised to see it. The article ended up being a really good article.

I had a very successful OCC and I am very proud of the temptations that I overcame while being away from AOS on a holiday that is focused around food.
