The weekend, days 6 and 7!

Saturday was a great day because I got to choose my hike.  I chose to do the beach again since the weather is so nice. I did not take pictures again since I figured that would get a bit repetitive.  The beach was packed, and once again some things were being filmed there.  There were a few star sighting by the guests, so it is still a very interesting hike.

The only pictures I took on Saturday were of the lunch and dinner.  For breakfast I had fruit and pancakes, lunch was some great tacos, and carrot soup, and dinner was chicken with marinara, squash and brussel sprouts,  and an almond butter cookie.  The cookies was 271 calories and it was not very good at all.  I enjoyed all the food that day except the cookie, so not worth it.  Here are the pics:




After lunch I went with Kent and Debra to see the Green Hornet.  We enjoyed the movie and I had a diet pepsi.  Not on program, but not crazy off program.

After dinner there was the graduation ceremony for people leaving on Sunday.  It was a great event and a little sad.  We went through events that were inspiring for the week and it was a very positive experience.

Onto the next day, my day of rest for the week!  Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!  So food was granola for breakfast, and a sack lunch with an almond butter and jelly sandwich with a banana and string cheese.  Dinner was a great tamale in black bean sauce.

I was invited by Dan to go to Venice Beach and jumped at the opportunity.  It was a good time we probably walked about 4 miles (I forgot to wear my fitbit!) up and down the beach.  It was a very interesting people watching experience.  Venice is also Muscle Beach and there were a few muscle guys there.  Not too many, I guess Sunday is their day off.  I had a great time and actually got a decent walk in on my day off.

The only bad part of my day was the weigh in.  I lost 4 pounds in my first week.  I was sad, but I realized I have lost over a belt loop already, so as they say, weight is not the only thing to change.

Sunday night was new guests introduction and prep for the next day.  Here are the pics from the Sunday:
