Score Part 2

Well I'm pretty excited. I got myself a stability ball today! Cheap from Winners! I can't wait to try it out. I think this ball really completes my mini at home gym. I'd like to get a set of heavier weights but for now, my yoga mat, 5lb weights and this ball are everything I need!

With that it's time to quit the gym! With my bootcamp classes, the flexibility of doing workouts at home and the nice weather on it's way I figure my $60/month can be better spent elsewhere (like on the new Jason Mraz CD I got today)!

Looking forward to the weekend (another cottage weekend)and I've made some kale chips in preparation. I'm hoping to make it a better cottage weekend than normal. I'm not buying any sweets! The kale and plain popcorn should be plenty. Plus, we're having vegan tacos on Saturday and I can surly full up on that! I'll also be brining my runners and crossing my fingers that it doesn't rain too hard.

OH! I also made frittata for the first time tonight with some veggies I had in the fridge. Bok choy, red peppers and broccoli. A weird mix I know but it worked! And filled me right up :)

I usually find that after dinner I crave a sweet taste in my mouth even though I'm full so tonight in addition to water I chewed on some fruit flavoured gum and that seemed to curb it. Hey, if it works I'll keep doing it!

Now, after looking online a bit I found myself back on Runner's World and found a great list of exercises to do with the stability ball. I won't be trying them tonight as Bryan is using it as his desk chair at the moment, but I will do these when I get home on Sunday.

Most of the moves I've done before but doing them with the ball adds an extra challenge. Check them out here!

Have a great weekend!
