I made it!

Today is day 3 of the No Sugar Challenge. I was worried about today because I had to go to work. It is easier for me to be good on the weekends because C. Varied is good at keeping me on course. Whereas at work, I am on my own and there are lots of temptations from candy baskets to free lunches. I made through the day! My goal is just to take it one day at a time and be prepared as possible with my breakfast, lunch, and snacks so I don't let myself get too hungry.

WOD

5 rounds of:
Row 250
20 Wallballs (14/20# to 10 feet) - I used 12#
5 Power Cleans (120/185#) - I used 95#

*Complete the round and then rest for the remainder of the round until the clock hits 5:00 minutes (10/15/10/25 minutes until all 5 rounds are complete). Score is total time completed for each round. 

My scores were 3:28, 3:45, 4:01, 4:04, and 4:24

I made an awesome dinner tonight. From Paleo Comfort Foods, I made fried chicken and from Primal Blueprint, I made brussel sprouts. It was delicious. I am starting to feel more comfortable in the kitchen and enjoying myself. Don't tell, C. Varied. ; )

Cutting Vegtables

I started Laura Pappas' Sugar Detox Challenge on Saturday. So far it is going well. I went grocery shopping yesterday and planned out all our meals for the week. Today, we did all the prep work for lunches for the week, which meant cutting A LOT of vegetables. I am definitely eating a lot more real, whole foods I know that because I cut them all up today. It really helps to do all the prep work on Sunday then it is not as much of a hassle to pack lunches during the week.

I am excited to see how the challenge goes. The biggest thing for me during these challenges is making sure I eat enough. I need to always be prepared with snacks so I don't get caught somewhere where there is nothing I can eat and I am hungry. I am miserable when I am hungry. As my husband says "I need to make sure to feed and water myself".

WOD (Workout of the Day)

T&P Adventures, which included sled pulls (50#), sit-ups, air squats, and push-ups. We did 3 rounds with 90 seconds of work at each station and then 1 minute rest between rounds like Fight Gone Bad. I got 366 reps. I did knee push-ups and each sled pull-up counted as 5 reps. It was a good workout. I need to keep working on getting my stamina back since I have been focusing on strength the past few months.
