I’m home!
I wrote on my facebook wall yesterday after i landed….that it’s pretty special that i can say that i’m
coming “home” to Kauai. On the flight home i was sitting next to a family with three kids all around the same ages
as mine….and they asked how i love the North Shore and how do i deal with all the rain.
Most tourists stay on the South/West side because of that reason. It’s drier…it’s warmer….and they think
it rains all year long here on the Northshore.
I told her we all tell everyone it rains all the time because it’s to keep the tourists on that side of the island;-)
Oh…we get rain alright. For two weeks before Thanksgiving it rained for 10 days straight…..but it’s because of the rain…
that makes the North shore of Kauai one of the most beautiful places in the world. But our average here on the North side is
a balmy 82 degrees.

Today is the ending of week 13 of my circuit training with Gabby…..
{i missed a few classes while i was in New Mexico..and i might have had some huevos rancheros one morning}
but i stepped on the scale last night and i’m down 12 pounds.
12 pounds!!
{Free tip:….by folding your arms up and resting them on your hips…
….it makes them look thinner then if you just let them hang by your side}
There are still a good 12 weeks of class left….which means i’m not done yet!
Gabby and her family live here for 6 months out of the year…..
she does the classes FOR FREE….{read more about it HERE}
and it’s by invite only. I was lucky enough to score an invite by a friend
that was already in the class.
The classes are three days a week….and on the alternate days i’ve been walking a 4 mile loop.
I hate running. {even though i did that 5k last year…..but i think i was drugged when i signed up for it}
I never felt that high that people talk about when running….so just doing the long walk works for me. I also
am walking in one of the most beautiful places in the world….and i get to see the ocean as i walk.
It clears my mind.
{well….and a good vodka with freshly squeezed grapefruit juice}
I’m pretty sure vodka has less calories than wine…but don’t quote me on this bit of info….
i just know that working my ass off…..and drinking vodka….
{okay…..maybe investing in a juicer and drinking green juice every day has helped a teeny tiiny bit}
has lead me to lose 12 pounds.
