Spinning and Hydration

I've been missing in action lately, but its because I've been up to some new things.....

Let me first say that my legs and butt are tired and sore!!!  I joined the YMCA over the weekend and then on Sunday I participated in a SPIN class!!!  Now I have taken two or three SPIN classes before but I forgot how intense they are.  The seat was REALLY bothering me so the next time I have to make sure to pick up one of the seating pads.  The class was one hour and by the time we hit the 45 minute mark, I was ready to collapse!  The instructor was good and I believe he said that we should be drinking 40 oz of water (or sports drink) throughout the class.  Now to me, that's ALOT of water in one hour.  I only had a measley 16 oz bottle of water with me.  I will make sure when I go back (yes, I am going back for more punishment and pain) that I have my 32 oz bottle with me.  Hey, its a start. 
Let me show you some things that I have been eating lately:
For breakfast I have been eating oatmeal.  Throughout the blogosphere I've noticed that people put some kind of nut butter on their oatmeal.  So, since I received some samples from Sunbutter, I decided to put a little bit on mine.  I tell ya what, I really am beginning to like this sunbutter.  The taste of it mixed with the oatmeal was great!

For a snack, I had a banana and some strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries.
I'll be back with more later.  Oh, I just love to buy different bags so here is the latest.  I love it!  Its not too big and not too small.  Its from Timbuk2.

Its my little treat to myself.  Until next time, stay strong and eat healthy!
