^^ That’s what we’re living on here! That and mai tais!
Breakfasts have been on the light side because we usually do our workouts in the morning. The latest one was a mix of cardio and strength moves – everything from push ups to squat jumps. We did each exercise (10 of them) for 1 minute, then 45 seconds then 30 seconds 3x through. Great workout! We ended with a short run to the pier and back.
Preworkout toast with almond butter –
Then we were on the beach all morning!!
Run and splash and dig, run and splash and dig.
Dig with the bear claw –
Inside for lunch, I had a Virginia roll with egg, avocado and cheese that was epic. Plus cherries and chips. We have gone through so many avocados!
Afternoon beach music with our bluetooth speaker
Finally got him to wear his hat!! (For those of you who were concerned on Instagram 🙂 )
Cocktail hour –
Olives, manchego and crackers –
Dinner was fresh fish – mahi mahi and grouper – plus scallops and a big kale salad with blue cheese and avocado.
We are eating well, and I’ll be back with more meal recaps soon : )
Courtney says
Looks like a fun vacation! You have a beautiful family!!

That meal looks delicious! How do you dress your kale salad?
KathEats says
My go-to is sesame oil and rice wine vinegar plus a little salt!

I love your top and shorts! Can I ask what brand they are or where you may have purchased them (if online)? 🙂
KathEats says
The top is this one from Lands End. And the shorts are the swim Paddleboard shorts here.

This has me craving a beach vacation!!
Hannah @ Eat, Drink and Save Money says
What a great trip so far! I JUST blogged this morning about what to do with extra blue cheese. I’m definitely making a kale and blue cheese salad tonight. Thanks for the inspiration!
Kate says
Ahaha that was me on Instagram : ) : ) : )
So happy he finally agreed to his hat! Sun protection is no joke! Glad you guys are able to relax and unwind together. Looks like such fun!

Mai Thai on the beach. Yum! What recipe do you use. Not crazy about the ones we have tried at home

Bought it at the Tiki bar!
Kim from MN says
Yum!! I am absolutely taking inspiration from your meals. Loving the look of that breakfast sandwich with avocado. And the manchego. And the fish. And ok all of the food.
Janice says
Your Mom looks amazing! I noticed that amazingness in recent photos on your blog and on Instagram. Today’s post in the last photo confirms that observation! Please convey my awe (I’m her age) of her glow and happiness. It sure shows. Not only does she look amazing she is!
Mom says
Ah, thanks Janice!
Tess says
Looks like a gorgeous place to be- wow. Reminds me of Fripp Island SC where my family vacations. Well, we only can afford it about once every 10 years but we love renting a beach house when we can! Cherish every day, you have a lovely life, Kath!
Cassie says
Have fun!! 😀
Jane says
Definitely need some recipes—the salad looks outstanding!
You look so fit, I’ll continue following your blog for sure to get ideas, motivation and inspiration healthy eating.
I’m sure you have been through those times where you thought it was going to be impossible to get in shape and stay that way. I waver back and forth and get discouraged as I think the weight loss, healthy eating habits and activity are going to wane as they usually do. Enough crabbing!
LOVE your pics…your little guy is precious!

Hi Kath, I have a question for you that I have been wanting to ask you for some time now. How much do you exercise? I don’t really now hoe much I should workout. I am 21 years old. I have been on a break for the past few months ( I needed to recover from an eating disorder). I like to run and make exercises at home. But how often should I do it? And for how long? I really hopw you can help me! 🙂 Thank you so much 🙂
KathEats says
It depends on the day! Sometimes I walk a lot and have a 90 minute soccer game and other days I do a 60 minute strength class and that’s it. Sometimes I don’t do anything (like today- car trip!) My main goal is to be active for at least an hour a day though.

ooooooh man, beach food! I actually had a dream last night that I was at the beach, and then I woke up unhappy this morning when I realized it wasn’t true! Haha!
