Wow, August is upon us, crazy…. Another Month into summer, time is flying by! We enjoyed a healthy and fun night out last night, Italian Style! Yes, I actually found another healthy option, while eating Italian Style! Yes and with NO modifications! Yes, that is right, Italian Restaurant and able to order right off the menu, Gina Approved! It is a Cucina Italiana called Vigilucci’s in Carlsbad, California.
Check this out, Straight off the menu…. NO MODIFICATIONS NEEDED TO BE MADE 😉
Fettuccine Primavera $13.75
Homemade fresh wheat pasta and fresh garden vegetables in a white wine and garlic sauce.
Yes, this was to die for. Fresh whole wheat pasta with garden veggies! It was similar to a dish my Nonna use to make and it was delicious! Not to mention, look at the price! This was a very nice restaurant and for a healthy Italian dinner under $15, you cannot beat that!
See it can be done, you can go out and indulge in Italian Cooking, GA! Healthy Italian does exist out there… Bring on the carbs but yes, the complex ones please…. 🙂
We had a great time and it was nice finding another place that allows for a guilt free night out!
Thought for the day:
Today we approach a new month, what is in store for us today and for this month? Have you thought about your August Goals? They say, you are who you are around. It is so important to surround ourselves among like minded individuals. As we strive to be better and better and reach our ultimate potential, what we surround ourselves with is a huge factor in our success! This month, I want you to be mindful of whom you are surrounding yourself around. We all have a great responsibilities not only for ourselves but our families and friends. It is important we are leading those around us in the right direction but also those around us our leading us in the right direction. Take the time to reflect on the path you are taking and ensure your surroundings are inline with where you are wanting to go….
Here is to an amazing August full of like minded individuals striving for excellence, with each day!
HAPPY SUNDAY!
hugs,
Gina
I am definitely thinking about where I want August to take me. Its ironic that you brought up surrounding yourself with like minded people because lately I’ve had a very painful “housecleaning” if you will of people who I thought were my support system. This may even be a little bit of the reason that I couldn’t get out of my rut a quickly. As sad as it is, I am just learning from it and moving on. Sometimes, espeially as a competitor in a very selfish industry, it can feel like there is no one I can truly trust and sometimes I feel like NO ONE is who they seem to be. Scary! Maybe I am looking in the wrong places. Maybe I need to rewrite my “friend” “trainer” “mentor” job description standards and refill a few positions!!!
Thank you Gina for providing me with such a genuine place to come and be fed spiritually, emotionally, and physically. I really don’t think you realize how precious this is to me right now. I truly mean that.

So proud of you Eryn for taking the time for some needed and essential “housekeeping”. It is ALL about your support system! Learning along the way and filling positions as you go. Remember the less “positions” you have the better off…. less is more and quantity over quality! So glad we are a part of your support system! Each day you are growing and learning! love ya girlie! xo
