Day 4 - Food log, WOD and some thoughts

I headed back to work today, which is both good and bad. Good because working puts me in a routine and with a routine my eating habits are better. No extra time = no extra and unnecessary snacks. Bad because . . . well, it's work.

Here is the food -
Breakfast:
Egg bake with Italian sausage
Banana

Lunch:
Homemade egg salad with tuna (hard boiled egg, tuna, mayo, deli mustard, and paprika)
Leftover sauteed sweet potatoes
Pineapple with a few strawberries
Cashews and almonds
Dried cherries

Snack:
Almonds

Dinner:















Burger with Colby jack cheese on a bed of spinach
Roasted broccoli

As a side note - I don't usually have the same thing for dinner 2 nights in a row, but there was a miscommunication to my chef and the message of chicken for dinner did not conveyed and we needed a quick dinner once I got home from CFB.

Snack:
Pink lady apple


WOD:
Baseline = 5:46
Since this blog is about living a healthier life not just food and exercise, I am choosing to share more of my thoughts. I have to say I am ridiculously proud of that baseline time. I looked back and my first baseline time was 7:14 and I am pretty sure I did the push ups on my knees and used a green band for pull ups. When I did it again in November, my time was 5:55 and I did push ups on my toes and a purple band. Today was Rx!! No band for my (miserable) pull ups! That is 1:30 faster and as Rxed in less than a year! CF rocks!

On to the actual WOD -
For time:
800m run
30 snatches (I did full snatches with 53#)
800m run

My time was 14:09

One of my other unofficial CF goals is to do more WODs as Rx or to push myself to use a heavier weight or do more complicated movement. So, I knew I had to do full snatches. I could have been faster if I hadn't, but I am proud I stuck with them and got through them.

Definitely a day at CFB to be happy with in my world!

  1. Great job on the baseline!! And on the WOD! I only did 33#, squat snatches are still troublesome for me.
