Monday starts today!


In the past, when I'd start a new eating or workout regimen, I would start on Monday. If the resolve to get going came on Thursday, then Friday, Saturday and Sunday would be spent eating all of the things that I wouldn't be eating starting on Monday. In one memorable Sunday outing before starting BodyRx the next day, my sister and I drove from Potomac Mills Mall to Friendly's near Arundel Mills Mall at 10pm to to have grilled cheese sandwiches and sundaes. For anyone that knows the DC area, that's like 50 miles and 1 hour each way. Ridiculous!

As Aaron wrote in his blog around New Years, "it takes some effort not to freak out when you have a couple of bad workout." (or eating days or whatever. . .) So, after a crazy few days, I woke up this morning and hit the WOD at PCF. I weighed in as well - 137.0 lbs. Yep, that's right, I managed to completely erase 2 weeks worth of work. But, I'm not going to freak out about it. I'm going to toughen up and get the work done. Like Aaron says, "if you start today, it will be much more legit. . ."

Workout of the Day
"Elizabeth"
21-15-9
Squat cleans
Ring dips

13:13

I did 65# cleans. I'd started out at 85# (prescribed for women is 95#) but my form was horrible. So I dropped the weight down to 65. For dips, I used the parallettes.

Food Log
Meal 1 (noon): Lentil stew with turkey burger - 3blocks
Snack 1 (1pm): Cheese Stick and 1/2 apple - 1 block
Snack 2 (4pm): Cheese Stick and 1/2 apple - 1 block
Meal 2: Ma Po Tofu with steamed vegetables - 3blocks
Meal 3: Zone Perfect bar - 3 blocks

My stomach feels crazy and I really don't feel like eating. I think I've been fighting a stomach bug since Sunday. If I still feel crappy tomorrow, I'm gonna fast.
