Why NY?
Hi from the sky
Howโs your day going?? Hope youโre chillaxing and having a great morning <3
I woke up bright and early to catch my flight to NYC.
So proud of myself for not checking a bag! That pretty much never happens, but since Iโm only going for one night, I have no excuses. That is, unless I do a lot of shopping and have to check a bag on the way back
Breakfast was at the terminal- a cashew butter sandwich on brown rice bread + pumpkin/Sun Warrior/almond milk mush bowl
Last night, on a break from work, I picked up new sneaks to support my broken toe. Flip flops werenโt cutting it โI was so afraid to hit my toe on something!- and my other Asics bit the dust a couple of weeks ago.
This way, I โll be comfy while I explore today
(Side note: broken toe didnโt stop me from doing yoga in the store windows last night. Heh heh)
The Kindle is also equipped with its first book: I Remember Nothing
Iโve read a few pages and can tell itโs going to be a good one
So a few of bloggy friends have asked what the heck Iโm going to NY for, especially since Iโll only be in town for one night.
As much as I would love (LOOOOOVE!!!!) to say it was book deal related, itโs actually fitness-related, which is still going to be a crazy blasty. Iโm going to be trained by two celebrity trainers in the morning and will be capturing the experience via Flip Cam to share with ya, as well as the tips and techniques Iโll learn. More deets will be up in the AM.
For now, Iโm gonna catch a cab to the hotel, explore, gym it up and meet some friends for dinner.
See ya later today with some adventures!
xoxo,
Gina
Would it be weird/allowed/uncouth to just show up at an agentโs office tomorrow with my book proposal?? Just kiddingโฆ not reallyโฆ haha
Something to read: Recaps from my last trip to NYC
Ooooo I can’t wait to read more about what you learn from the fitness trainers!! ๐
Don’t even tell nme you’re meeting with David Kirsch?!
Is Gina short for Angelina? I’m so confused! Have fun in ny the weather is beautiful!!!!
Have a safe and fun trip! BTW, not sure if you already have checked into this but our library has books you can “check out” and read on your Kindle or other device.
Yayy I’m so glad you’re here!! You definitely lucked out with the weather here too ๐ Can’t wait to see you later!!
what trainers? what trainers? do tell! do tell!
HOW COOL!
I’m so excited to see what trainers you work with! Lucky girl! ๐
I LOVED eating at Pure food and wine! SO elegant and tasty! Have a great trip ๐
Have fun in NY!

Have a fun trip in NY!!!
Sometimes quick trips are good; I’m headed to NYC early in the morning, and heading home on Tuesday afternoon. Going to see Rascal Flatts on David Letterman!
love rascal flatts!
HOW EXCITING!!!!!! I know how much you love Jillian Michaels…Maybe it will be her??? haha ๐ Have a blast!
hahah i would never!
I love your luggage!!! ๐ Is that black bag from lululemon? If so, I just noticed it in the store the other night (or one similar if it’s not) and was thinking of getting it to take traveling to Arizona for Christmas with my family. That would be perfect to keep your purse and books inside!
yup! i love it ๐ it has a pouch for my laptop which is awesome ๐
when i need something bigger, i’ll use my livewell bag, but the lululemon bag is for everyday
Just taking carry ons is sooo much easier than checking luggage. There’s no waiting after the flight, just grab your stuff and walk out. It’s nice ๐
sounds like it’ll be a fun trip! I don’t know how you managed to fit everything in a carry on! I’m horrible at packing- i need lots of options!
THAT IS SOO AMAZING! Sorry for the caps but I can’t wait to hear about your workouts!
Yay have fun!
Glad to see I’m not the only person in the world who makes pumpkin mush bowls! havefun in new York! And as a side note, I will buy your first book in an instant. You are an awesome blog writer so I can only imagine how great a book by you would be for the other fitnessistas out here!
pumpkin mush bowls are so good! ๐
thank you! <3
Have fun in NY!!!!
And take care of that toe!!!
Just showing up at an agent’s office? I used to have sales rep jobs and the best way to get your foot in the door can be cold calling. Or just cold-showing up! We used to call it “storming the palace”. Where we’d just show up on doorsteps. I landed some big accounts that way..not kidding! Sometimes it’s just as important about meeting the person as much as what they have to say. You have nothing to lose!
Try!!
๐
maybe i will….
I can’t wait to see the video!! Have so much fun!!
Have a blast girl!
I think you should try showing up to an agent with your proposal! That way they’ll get a glimpse of your personality instead of just seeing you on paper. Do it! ๐
i seriously am debating….
Hi! What is pumpkin mush bowl? And what proportions of the pumpkin, Sun Warrior, & almond milk did you use to make yours?
not sure- it was kinda haphazard when i threw it together ๐
about 1 c pumpkin, 1 scoop sun warrior, 1/2 c almond milk?
hey, i think fitness related is just as good! i can’t wait to see the videos!
My Mom just gave me a Kindle today for my birthday. I’m struggling with which book to get first!
so sorry to hear you broke your toe! yuck! do you like the kindle? i’ve been worried about getting it…thinking it would make you sick to read too long…like the weird dizzy feeling you get if you read the computer screen too much.
you should show up at an agents office most def! you have alot of REAL qualifications for a fitness book.
I’,m sorry about your toe!! Have fun in NY!!
Yay NYC! Hope you’re loving it here. Enjoy your quick trip!
