Vegas Eats

Hey NeverEver's!

So I was going to post all of this yesterday but I decided that I really wanted to break it up into 2 sections. The fact that I CAN exercise while going to places...especially VEGAS, and I really wanted to share that.

Now I want to share the wonderful Buffet food that I had!

Starting with...


This was over at the Cosmopolitan! For hubby and I w/ champagne it was only $88. Considering that this hotel is brand new and a lot of people like to go there...I was expecting more. 


I really had to take a picture of this. Kind of want to make it my background now?!? What do you guys think?


The table. I felt so fancy that a Buffet actually had place mats. Never seen it before. 


Okay from Top Left to Bottom Right: Duck Ravolli, Grapes w/ Brie Cheese, Lamb w/ Beans & 'Angry' Mac & Cheese. 

It was my first time trying duck. It was sweet and delicious, I am so happy that I have finally tried it! Everything on this plate was gone before I knew what happened! 


Again Top Left to Bottom Right: Three Cheese Panini, Korean BBQ Rib, Spanish 'Dirty' Rice & Sirloin. 

So the Three Cheese Panini wasn't all that good. I just don't think it really hit the spot at all. But everything else was delicious! The steak was amazing and the ribs yummy!


This was the hubby's plate..well one of them. It was a complete fish plate..ewww! To those of you that like fish please ignore my opinion above ^_^


Dark Chocolate Strawberry, Tres Leches Sugar Cube, Fruit Vanilla Parfait, Vanilla Custard Chocolate Cup, Red Velvet Cookie!


I really had to go back for more of that steak! It was delicious! But I had to add some green beans to it to even it out!


I really loved this chandelier! It was so beautiful!!


Hubby's dessert. All I remember that this one had it was an apple pie! 

Afterwards, it was all about Vegas Exercises!



Here was the Birthday girls Birthday Cake! it was a vanilla & chocolate cake. Not to sweet and it was perfect for sharing with the Hubby! 

Now on the Sunday's Buffet! 


This one is from the Harrah's Casino Buffet 'Flavors'. I had the coffee, salad, sirloin steak and cottage cheese. Weird combo but it tasted really good! 


I saw these waffles and I just had to have them! The hearts & diamonds were so yummy! Then there was the watermelon, peaches and cinnamon bun! 


Finally to finish my Buffet breakfast was the dessert! Such a perfect bite size yummy-ness! 



So today's challenge was to clean out the fridge and the pantry. So that is exactly what I did! 
Before
After
 Got rid of some old food, snacks that were expired and organized. It felt really good to be able to see everything again...but it also reminded me that I need to go shopping!


I have some BIG news about today's challenge that was done. My Hubby actually joined me! 


Yup I only have 1,334 to go before 20 days are over with! I totally can do it. Maybe I can actually get the Hubby to join me a few more times ^_^



I am still catching up on missed squats so I am doing 100 Squats! Done and Done!

It is time for bed but to give everyone a heads up on tomorrow's post!

Back from Vegas Exercises?!

Hey NeverEver's!!

I had an awesome weekend, which I hope all of you did as well! I did forget that Vegas is in the desert so its HOT HOT HOT in the Summer and COLD COLD COLD in the winter. So it was cold this time.

Its time to share!


The Tree over at the Venetian. It was so pretty before it was lighted up. I loved the little bubbles, made it look so unique!


There was an ice skating rink over at the Venetian as well. I totally had to try it, been dying for years and I could not pass the opportunity up! 


Hubby was a total natural on the rink. It made me look like a person with 2 left feet but him...nope he was just gliding around.


And then there was me. I only fell once so I am pretty happy with that. Personally I thought that I would be falling a LOT more then that. I was saying 1, 2, 1, 2 many times just to keep the balance!


A really nice person took a picture of both of us! The lights made everything blue but it was well worth it! I had so much fun ice skating for an hour. Have to say that it was quite the workout!


By the time we got out the tree was all lighted up! So of course I had to share! 

Hugo & Tia Melia
After ice skating it was time for the reason why we came to Vegas. My cousin Val's 18th's Birthday! It was time to dance with the family!


Plus posing for photos in the cold out doors! Good thing that the music was hot! 


My sister in law Marlem, hubby and Zoraya! They were really getting their grove on! It was so awesome I had to take a picture!


And well a night doesn't end until there is a final picture between the Hubby and I! It was a fun and active day! 

So I didn't do my challenges, I didn't do any gym workouts but I had fun and I worked out. I tried ice skating for the first time and found out that I could do it! 

I found out that I can have a weekend away...and not just ruin everything. There are chances to workout without even knowing it! 

Now tonight I am catching up on my challenges + my neighborhood walk. Ice skating & dancing is fun but so is being on a scheduled workouts. 


I got my new elf today! Her name is Alexis and it feels like she has so much energy! I can not wait to talk with her more and just steal some of that energy ^_~

So today's challenge was drinking your body weight in water. As of right now I am up to 140 oz's of water. There is still more time to go before heading to bed so I am trying to make it up to 180 oz's! 


So with me not having a smart phone...I can't do some instagram things without it. So I am playing catch up! Check out my Day 7 through 9 on Twitter! Promise they are awesome pictures ^_^

Okay...now on to my walk! Talk to you guys tomorrow NeverEver's!
