I really thought this time was different, "Oh, I am so paleo that this Whole30 isn't even bothering me this time. I don't have any sugar cravings....life is all rainbows and butterflies."
WRONG.
The past three nights I have had dreams where I "cheat" and I wake up thinking I actually did it. WHAT THE HELL? I am proud to say I have made it 7 days with no problem. I am lucky since I do have a dairy and gluten intolerance it is easy for me to say no to food. However, the sugar that I am turning down is really the hardest part of it all.
Next weekend, John and I are traveling to our alma mater to participate in the Annual Viennese Ball. This is a event where the campus transforms into Vienna and there is dancing, food, drinks and fun. Both John and I participated in this event through choir so it is near and dear to our hearts.
Positives to this weekend:
ALL OF OUR FRIENDS WILL BE THERE!!!!
SO MUCH DANCING!
Negatives:
SO MUCH BOOZE.
It is not even the food I am worried about. I have this paleo thing DOWN. But the booze. The wonderful delicious, knock you off your feet Long Islands. UGH.
I just don't know.
More on that later. Yesterday, I completed my first Crossfit WOD (workout of the day). I immediately fell in love with the box and the trainers.
WOAH....WHAT IS CROSSFIT? (note: I am CAPSLOCK happy today)
Crossfit is interval training that uses body resistance, heavy weights and interval training. It usually happens in a very small space which is known as a "box". It is not your typical "bootcamp" it is SO much more.
My WOD yesterday was:
1000 m Row
AMRAP (as many rounds as possible)
30 Air Squats
20 Sit Ups
10 Push Ups ( no "girl" push ups allowed)
5 Pull Ups
Woof. I am happy to say I completed 4.75 rounds. However, I can not move today. But I will be back on Monday to start my first On-Ramp class.
I will leave you with some food pics.
well that workout looks TERRIFYING. good luck!
