Still Going...

Tuesday:


6:00am - CrossFit Prep (This is basically the precursor to actually being a Crossfitter. We learn different lifts and work on skills like dips, pull ups, and running)
Overhead squat - 77#
Push press - 82#
Front squat - 89#


(Also, I got my pictures taken this morning - basically the winner is chosen by the other members of the gym based on picture and change in body tone. I'm nervous about everyone seeing those pictures, but it is DEFINITELY motivation to stay strong!!)


7:30 am - breakfast: 2 eggs, black coffee (are you noticing a trend? I need to change it up a little)
11:45 am - lunch: @Smashburger: 1/3 lb. Arizona burger with no bun and no cheese, veggie frites with no green beans
6:45 pm - dinner: Lamb shoulder chop, roasted brussels sprouts, raw red bell pepper


It was a super busy day at work with lots of meetings and time out the office so I didn't have a snack and I think I paid for it a little after dinner with a major desire for more food. But I stayed strong. 


Dirty asked me the other day what was the hardest thing to give up and I would have to say, on a daily basis, it is cheese/dairy. I don't mind drinking iced coffee black, but I do like cream in my hot coffee so I'm really going to have to work on that. Additionally, cheese is hard. I wouldn't say that I eat a lot of cheese, but it is a nice addition to salads, especially when you eat a lot of salads. I have not gotten to the part of the book where they discuss dairy products and why they are not included in this diet, but I'll keep you updated as I know.


I have some thoughts on diets that I will most likely share tomorrow/tonight. (I'm really going to try to write this blog post at the end of every day so it makes a little more sense.
