WEEK #1: Summary Results

Weight loss of 0.8 pounds
Inches lost from waist of approximately 1 inch

Day #8:  Back in the gym today and it looks like another tough one.  I do not know if it is just me getting back into the gym again after some weeks off or what, but the WOD's have been intense!!

Breakfast: Chic-Fil-A 3 piece nugget meal (didn't eat the bread) with hash browns and diet coke (bad, I know...crazy morning and didn't have much in the way of choices)
Snack: Green tea with KIND Coconut Almond Bar (very yummy by the way) worked off-site and good option at Starbuck's
Lunch: Jason's Deli Nutty Mixed Greens Salad (mixed greens, nuts, berries, grilled chicken, apple slices, red grapes and feta cheese) love this salad by the way!
Dinner:  3 ounces baked organic chicken, 1 cup organic sweet potatoes (cooked with honey and vanilla in pan) and 2 cups steamed organic broccoli (flavored with olive oil and fresh garlic)

Workout:  5 Rounds for Reps - 1 minute of Sumo high-pull dead lifts, 1 minute of push presses followed by 400 meter run (you have 4 minutes to run 400 and rest between each set which sounds like a great break but by the 3rd round it is hard to stop huffing and puffing before the next round begins).  I had 208 reps (Sets: 42, 42, 42, 41, 41 reps per round).


How do I Feel:  Still sore all around, but getting better.  SO HAPPY to have been able to run without pain again.  I didn't push myself to hard for I really want to be careful and not be back on the side lines.  Had bad reflux today and am not really sure why and tummy was off a bit today.  I think the eating out has a lot to do with.  Hubby was great and went to the grocery store, made some Paleo energy bars and making Morning Glory Muffins from Paleo Comfort Food cookbook.  Energy bars were good and hear the muffins are great.

  2. Thanks Dina - I had a really stressful work day and allowed myself to use Valentine's Day as an excuse to eat what I want this evening at the Cheesecake Factory. Nothing crazy, but not Paleo and had toasted bread..it was so good. I will be back on track, but on the road which makes it harder. Thanks for your message and good luck!!
