Hrs of sleep:
7.5-ish?
Veggies:
1 c butternut squash
1/2 cucumber
1 red pepper
1.5 c snap peas
1/2 carrot
1 c cabbage
1 c broccoli
2/3 c eggplant
1/4 c onion
Fruit:

2 c strawberries
Training:The skinny
CrossFit Women
5 rounds:
15 pushups
30 box jumps
400m run
I finished 4 full rounds before Crystal called "time" at about 23 minutes. It was a barn-burner! I decided to really focus on my pushups and did each one with elbows in close, chest to the ground. It was rough, man. Like... 5 at a time rough.
3-mile run
Dave and I postponed our sprints until Saturday and decided to run the 3-mile loop instead. I did my usual 3-minute intervals but ended each one with a 15-second pick-up, just to switch it up a bit. After two miles, I decided I'd had enough and walked the rest of the way.
I hit the pillow at 9:00 but was still trying to get into sleep mode at 9:30. I drifted off but slept lightly throughout the night. I woke up to pee. I woke up 'cause my legs were hot. I woke up to pee again. I woke up 'cause Dave was moving. Finally, I slept like a rock -- between 4:00 and 5:00. Lame!
Sleep:
ReplyDeleteI think I actually got a solid 8 hours last night instead of the 8"ish" I've been getting all week.
Veggies:
1 cucumber
Handful of baby carrots
3 celery stalks
1 big bag of steamed broccoli and cauliflower

Training:
1.5 miles on the treadmill plus a little more while I was messing around, trying to get my iPod to work properly. Then a little bit here and there on other cardio machines.
I weighed today (day 5 of my Paleo escapade) and I'm already down 2 pounds!
Thanks for keeping me accountable, Mel!
Nice work, Mer! 8 hours in AND 2 lbs. gone. AWESOME! Good on you, superstar.

Mentally not there yesterday. Did 2 rounds and was just done. Hate it when I do that to myself.
Is it ok if I post it here just like I keep track of it? If not, I will do it the other way tomorrow! : -) Yesterday was non stop running around, so there was lots of grazing going on. almonds here...asparagus an hour later...I really don't know whether that's good or bad. I just know I usually don't do that. Try to get carb/prot/fat in every meal or snack (except no fat post-WOD).
ReplyDeleteGood job everyone! Especially the new paleo people...it's a lot to wrap your head around at once...and to throw in sleep and training - Kudos!!!! And Mel...excellent veggie's yesterday! Lots of different colours!

Jen, love your details. Nice job on the 8 hours. I'm going for 9 tonight... woot!
ReplyDeleteUm... how freakin' delicious are those Cinnamon Roll Larabars?!?!
Delicious enough that I ate 2 yesterday. Usually try to limit myself to 1! :-) My favs are the banana bread and the cashew nut, because they each have 6 grams of protein. I'm still trying to break my 'needs to have 20 grams of protein to be a good bar' habit...but still pick the larabars with the most...usually! Like you said, the cinnamon ones are to die for!
