Orange County Fitbloggin Meet Up

Uncategorized

FacebookTweetPin
9 Jul

Today was the first meet up for the OC Fitbloggin group. Anyone who blogs or reads blogs was welcome to a local meet up of healthy living bloggers Smile

Since I originally organized the event I decided it should be at my favorite place in the world… Yogurtland! Not just because I’m selfish, but also because I want to share the Yogurtlove with everyone I can.IMG_6052 (800x533)

Luckily, everyone else that came are already huge fans of the ‘land so we were all happy! Especially Janae. Who was greeted by name when she walked in and paid with a Yogurtland Platinum card. I didn’t even though they had those!IMG_6044 (533x800)

Most of the time I try to be a little “good” with self serve fro-yo (so I can justify coming back the next day). But, today all bets were off. I am an eating machine today.IMG_6046 (800x533)

Janae and Sarah make gorgeous fro-yo models. Heck, they make gorgeous any kind of models hence the reason I made sure to take this pic and not be in it.hungryrunnergirl OUAL

After enjoying our yogurt we chatted outside for over an hour!

This is Leah, Sarah and Julie IMG_6054 (800x533)

From Left: Marlon (Me In The Balance), Heather (365 Days of Awesome), Me, Janae (Hungry Runner Girl), Leah (Healthy Coconut), Sarah (Once Upon a Lime), Julie (Fat Girl Trapped in Skinny), Kate (What Kate is Cooking) and Denise (Lotta Latte)

We tried to be funny. Tried is the key word there.we're ridic

On the way home I got hungry. Like suddenly I was super hungry and unhappy about it. So, I suggested stopping for food, but Ben vetoed it because we’re trying to spend less money.

We went home and I started to make something, but ended up realizing I really really wanted fish tacos and dropped everything to go get them.

I couldn’t even take a non-blurry picture because I was so hungry. I almost started to cry about it. Something’s wrong with me, but I think we all realize that.IMG_6071 (800x533)

Chips and guacamole (I thought it was important to label this picture in case you’re not aware of this staple in my diet).IMG_6076 (800x533)

But, Wahoo’s forgot that magic white sauce somehow and they were just okay Sad smile After my crying fit and everything this was a slight disappointment. Boo.IMG_6077 (800x533)

I stole some of Ben’s cheese tortellini and am still hungry. Or, as Theodora said – I’m “Run-gry”. Maybe. But, normally I am super hungry the day after a long run. I hope it’s not both this week!

I am RUNGRY!!! Hide your food.

Also hide your kids, hide your wife…

THIS IS YOUR YEAR.

      I went to my first meet up yesterday and even though I shouldn’t be, I was so surprised how good all of the food was!!

      Meet ups at Yogurtland seems like a great tradition! I want a platinum card now.

      It was great to finally meet you! I didn’t know you ran so far yesterday morning- the last time I went to Yogurtland after a long run I decided that my portion was not satisfactory and went back and bought another cup 🙂

      If you like that video, I think you’ll appreciate this…

      I totally had a weird food meltdown yesterday too. Uh oh, I gotta stay away from reading blogs for awhile or ALL of our cycles will start to sync. Actually wait, I haven’t had one in years, now I must attach myself to those who do! Okay, this comment has now sent me into some sort of weird stalker mode. I’ll quickly leave now.

      I always get slightly jealous when I see all the meet-ups that the OC fitbloggin group seems to do. How awesome.

      I love Antonie!! I hadn’t watched that clip in a while & it makes me laugh SO hard no matter how much I watch it.

      Oh Yogurtland will always have a very special place in my heart! I’m most recently obsessed with mint chocolate chip and red velvet, yummmmm. I absolutely love your blog posts and sense of humor! I literally laugh out loud at some of your comments (yes, sometimes in public places). 🙂

      Hi Susan, I missed you guys, too 🙂

      Thank you so much for putting the event today together, Monica, and for making me feel welcome even as a last minute addition. I think I’m glad we don’t have yogurtland here yet…that place could be very dangerous!

      It was great to see you and Ben again. I’m glad I got to meet everyone else, too! At first I was a little tentative about possibly being the only male blogger there, but I would have really regretted not coming. Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this meet-up. I’m looking forward to the next one!

      P.S. Had I known your brother was going to be there, I would have brought my son!

        I know! I didn’t think about it until last minute, but I thought to tell you. He would have had someone to talk to and then Ben woulda stuck around.

        Nice to see you again!

      sad i didn’t know about the meetup. I could ahve tried to have come since I wasn’t doing much at home this weekend.

        These places don’t do sorbet. Are you not doing any dairy?

          boo…yogurtland needs fro-yo sorbet style! And yep, I’m not doing any dairy at all, not even caisin. the stuff wrecks havoc on my system and i feel horrible. so no dairy at all….I miss my fro-yo.

      OMG I love that you met at a froyo place!! How brilliant of you! I’m gonna do that next time. Whose idea was it to meet at my house?? We have no froyo machines. Oh yeah, MY idea. Seriously, we in NorCal had a lot of fun too (and you stole one of our attendees! Hi Denise!) and I’m about to write my recap. So glad you had a great turnout!!
