Day 30

LAST DAY!!! ?

Unbelievable. Like I said yesterday, I've been busy with 2 sick kiddos and hardly stopped to think about the challenge and even that fact that it was Valentine's Day.

Breakfast - Boiled egg, leftover burger patty, leftover roasted sweet potato (random, I know. I just couldn't seem to figure out what I wanted to eat)

Lunch - Salmon with asparagus and snap peas


Dinner - King crab legs with a side of roasted kabocha squash



Dipped the crab in some ghee (clarified butter), garlic, and lemon

Dessert - Strawberries

(The rest of the family had theirs covered with chocolate. I have a couple in the fridge waiting for me tomorrow)

Snacks - Apple, sunbutter,


WOD
Rest/Recovery

Day 29

Things have been a bit hectic around here lately. Both of my girls are sick with strep and I spent most of the day nursing them, shuttling them between appointments, and picking up meds from the pharmacy. Didn't even realize that today was day 29 until I started writing this post.

Breakfast - Boiled egg

Lunch - One muffin frittata (my normal scramble ingredients in frittata form)


Dinner - Bolognese sauce with sauteed spinach. The kids wanted spaghetti and when I finished with the sauce, I realized I didn't have anything to eat it with (they had theirs with whole wheat pasta). Decided to cook up some spinach with garlic and a little bit of olive oil.


Snacks - Strawberries, apple, pistachios, banana, sunbutter

WOD
7 rounds of 7 front squats and 7 chest pull-ups

My results -
10:46 35# fs and bands for pu

Day 27

Breakfast - Banana and sunbutter and boiled egg

Lunch - Spinach, mushroom, onion, scramble with bacon

Dinner - Burgers. Made with ground beef, onions and garlic mixed in. Even made my own ketchup!


Yes, that's an egg on top!

WOD
Make up day. Did the WOD from Thursday. 7 rounds of 7 dead lifts and 7 L-pullups

My results-
16:35 83# and band assisted PU

I actually dead lifted 103# but went with a lower weight for the workout.

Day 26

Foodie part of this post is a bit uneventful. Here it is anyways.

Breakfast - Banana with sunbutter, 2 hard boiled eggs

Lunch - Leftover chicken soup

Dinner - Not hungry. Made dinner for the fam and just opted for another banana and sunbutter.

Snacks - Pistachios (lots, prob why I wasn't hungry for dinner...tsk tsk)

WOD


My results -

33-38-53x-40-43-48x-43x-43x (the "x's" mean I attempted the push but didn't complete 2 reps)

I knew I had little upper body strength, but this workout really made me realize how weak I really was. No where to go but up, so I can't be to ashamed of my scores. I'll do better next time...no doubt about it :)

For the Cash Out I was 2 squats away from 9 rounds

Day 25

Breakfast - Banana and sunbutter (so much for cutting down on my fruit intake)

Lunch- Leftover steak and sweet potatoes

Dinner - Chicken soup







I poached too much chicken when I made pad thai the other day, so I used the leftover's to make chicken soup for my sick family (everyone seems to be catching a cold).

Snacks - Pistachios, blueberries, Lar bar, Naked juice

WOD
Rest/Recovery
Very well needed and deserved. My body was crying out in pain from 3 straight days of hitting the Crossfit gym. Needed to give it time to heal. So glad I did. My shoulders are finally to the point where they don't burn when I go to move my hair out of my face. Ready for tomorrow!

Day 24

Breakfast - Leftover eggplant torta

Lunch - More eggplant torta and banana with sunbutter

Dinner - Steak and sweet potatoes






Snacks - Apple, pistachios

WOD


My results -
Only did 2 full rounds 33# thrusters and bands to help me with my pull ups. This hurt!
