Working Out in the HEAT + Healthy Breakfast at Mimi's

It's been so hot that I feel like staying cool and hydrated is something I need to pay extra attention to these days. Maybe I'm a delicate petunia, but the sun will definitely give me a headache if I'm not careful. 

Hence the extra large 2.2 liter water bottle. Honestly, it's not the most practical if you're a cardio bunny (it won't fit most treadmill or elliptical cupholders), but it will keep you hydrated so you're not constantly refilling your bottle. It's perfect if you're lifting weights or taking a HIIT-style class because then you've got your bottle right next to you on the floor. My goal is to take in at least 80 ounces of water on normal days, and more on days I workout. 

Unbeknownst to me, Mimi's Cafe has a delicious (and healthy and vegetarian) breakfast option on their menu. The Egg White and Veggie Omelet is an open-faced three egg white omelet made with spinach, mushrooms, caramelized onions, tomatoes, and goat cheese. It's served with a side of fruit, and I think the goat cheese is the game changer here because it adds a lot of flavor without a ton of calories. It filled me up, and clocks in at only 290 calories (24g protein, 28g carbs, 3g fiber, and 629mg sodium). This is definitely going to become my post-gym go to on the weekends 😋
