Class RSVPs
With just beyond a gaggle of students at CFM, the class sizes are growing! To maintain coaching quality and ensure safety, space and equipment for each student, we are offically capping classes at 14 students beginning today (10/18). But do not fret, we only anticipate two classes each week to be BURSTING at the seams… so you Tues/Thurs 7pm folk – PLEASE RSVP TO SAVE YO-SELF A SPOT. We’ll keep rollin’ w the punches and keeping you posted as other class times fill up… and as we add additional classes to accommodate the overflow.
RSVP – when you enrolled at CFM, you were emailed a login name and password for Zen Planner, our gym management website. Visit this page and use your login (you can also enter through the schedule page on our website) to reserve your space in class. RSVPs are accepted 5 days in advance, all the way up until class time. RSVP IS NOT REQUIRED, but if you show up for a class and it is full, you’ll have to wait until the next class to participate.
Cancellations – if you RSVP, then find you cannot attend a class, please CANCEL your reservation. You have until 4 hours prior to class time to cancel. If you do not attend a class for which you RSVPed, it will count against your weekly attendance if you fail to cancel the reservation.
-If you did not receive a Zen Planner log in email, let us know.
-Yoga classes are not capped.
-We are in the process of adding additional class times AND additional gym floor space, to accommodate more students.

I made Jeremy's burger salad last night. Followed the directions to the letter except I subbed 6 oz of bacon for the eggs because I wanted bacon and was too hungry after cooking everything else to fry up some eggs. It was awesome. Thanks for the rec Jeremy! Very filling. Bonus was that I made some extra patties. So, I can have this again another night.
I also attemped to make some paleo brownies. The directions said to use 2 teaspoons of honey, but since that's prohibited on the WLC diet I subbed in 4 tea spoons of stevia (which I bought especially for this). How did it turn out? Well, I gave Christine first crack at the brownies. She came back in with a mouthful and a disgusted look on her face. All she had to say when I asked how they were was: "You asshole, is this a joke?" Her reaction was warranted. These things tasted like burned dog shit – not sweet at all and extra crumbly. Lesson learned…..suck it stevia.
