Day 15: Attack Yourself!

I woke up this morning at 10:00 which is an accomplishment in itself. I have trouble sleeping in on the weekends as I get up at 6am during the week and my body clock is accustomed to such an early rise. So these extra hours of sleep was a lovely treat. I had a quick espresso and headed straight to my gym to take a class called 'Body Attack'. Oh la la! An attack indeed; it was aerobics on steroids! I kicked, shuffled and jumping-jacked my little heart out. The instructor was an adorable ball of energy and kept morale up with high-fives and encouraging prompts. With the extra weight I have, I felt my butt hitting my lower back and swaying left to right! Mon dieu! I left there drenched in my own sweat and with a good out look for this gorgeous Saturday.
On my way home, I stopped at the Farmer's Market by my flat to pick up locally-grown fresh veggies to make a delicious protein packed egg scramble while bopping around my kitchen to my love, Serge Gainsbourg (skipping the song 'Je t'aime...mon non plus' for obvious reasons).
I'm now off to use a spa gift certificate that was given to me by my dear friend Katie for Christmas.
Stay tuned and bon week-end!
