looking good oc

Admit it, the only reason you’re wearing the bedazzled sweater that Aunt Thelma made for you is to cover up the evidence of your overindulgence in December (well, all of 2008, really). That may fly in Vermont, but here in OC, sunny skies and bathing suits are right around the corner.

Start off by watching your mouth, or rather what’s going into it. Take Charlene E, for example, who keeps tabs on all the nutritional info printed on the menu at Fitness Pizza & Grill in Yorba Linda. Derek W’s method is to order a soup and salad lunch at Rutabegorz in Tustin, and then reward himself by “getting a big, huge malt.” Ah these kids and their crazy fad diets! Thrifty shopper, Beau M, takes full responsibility and shops for his own fresh produce in Costa Mesa at Growers Direct where “the prices are stuck in the late ’80s.”

Now, it’s off for a proper workout – those abs aren’t gonna crunch themselves. In Irvine, Zac B gets in the best van damm shape of his life at No Limits MMA. He offer this sage advice: while “your house will smell like sweaty boxing gloves,” the six pack makes it all worthwhile. Getting vertical, Jenny C prefers a rockier approach by scaling the faux mountains at Rockreation Sport Climbing in Costa Mesa. All the same, Angela C prefers exercising her spirit along with her body at Irvine’s Yoga Shakti; she swears it’s worth it, even if you’ll “feel sore for the next five days.” Chakras have always sounded painful.

Don’t give up yet! The great outdoors are calling your name. David L heard the call and answered at Sunset Kayak Rentals – just watch the extreme sun and water balloons! For the land lovers out there, like Holly W, check out Upper Newport Bay which “is one of the best perks of living in OC.” You’ll work up an intense sweat on the trail while taking in the beautiful views of “the bay, sunset… and the inappropriate use of spandex.” Hmm, we’ll concentrate on that sunset, thanks Holly.
