Oh, HIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BACK AGAIN!!!!

Ha...So I have been inspired to start writing my diary again, read it if you want. OR don't. I don't care either way. But if you don't you'll probably miss out, just saying. :)

As far as my diet/eating journey has been going, Ive played around with a couple different things. I haven't been 100% paleo.....EEEEEK. Its okay, I am still alive. Paleo isn't really realistic for my life, and I say this because I love treats. And when I say I love treats, I mean.... I LOVE TREATS!!!!!!!!!! When I say that I think of the little girl from Monsters INC when she yells "IT'S SO FLUFFY!!" Goodness, shes cute. Anyway, I eat primal most of the day. Breakfast consists of fat and maybe some fibrous vegetables. Sooo that is eggs and bacon. OR since I have a phobia against eggs lately it'll be bacon. Or maybe not even bacon but some leftovers. Sometimes just coffee. Honestly, I have been neglecting breakfast till about 10-11 so it might be lunch time already. If that's the case, its a salad with meat. I get in trouble if I don't eat breakfast. I KNOW I KNOW.... I need to do it. So far, this week has been good. So back on track, lunch. Lunch is leftovers or chicken and a homemade green salad. Lately I have been loving the crisp deliciousness of romaine lettuce/cabbage. Mmmmmm. Throughout my day I am drinking a huge jug of water. I aim to get a gallon or more in. Easy to do when theres a hefty jug that I haul around with me everywhere. Dinner is where I waiver. This is the Carb-Backloading theory. I have found that it works. But for the ladies its not as fun as it is for the gents. I cant just eat 800 donuts and a huge bowl of ice cream while having 16 cups of rice and pasta and bread and pizza and rolls and potatoes and cheese and fries and and and and..... the list goes on. ANYWAY, I do whatever it is I make for dinner with a limited amount of carbs. So like a little white rice...That way I can have a cookie. Or ice cream. But nothing too crazy. Truth is, sometimes I get crazy. Like with all this Halloween candy. OR the brownie skillet with ice cream I had last weekend...(I didn't eat it alone... Jill helped me) Shessh. Or beers, or wine. Those suck. Its just fun to celebrate life with friends. But my belly doesn't look awesome afterward. That's the scale though. Gotta live and love life, cant live in a jail cell of the diet world. I have and did, and I bet I was annoying. "Ummmm I cant eat that." What a snood. Haha. So bottom line, we all have slip ups. And its okay, tomorrow is a new day and one slip up isn't going to ruin everything. Just like one good meal isn't going to make you perfect. So take a breath and LOVE yourself. :)

Dem Quads....Seriously!?
FITNESS....I love that I found something that I am SO passionate about. I amaze myself everyday with where I am now. I watch the elitists and am inspired on a daily... and the beginners, cause that's where I started. To see the fire in their eyes to want to be better. MAN! Its great. Cross Fit is great and gives results, but I have found something that I want to be better at...and that's weightlifting. Something about it intrigues me. I want to be better. I want to prove to myself that I can be better at these technical lifts. And I will. So this drive has taken me down a different training path. I started this week. Day #4 is today. Snatch...Clean...Squat...Squat...Jerk....Squat.SQUAT. So far so good. I'm excited to be better. I am prepared for more bad days then good days. To break things down and rebuild. Needless to say, I am stoked.

Gosh, this is going to be a million miles long...Sorry. NOT. :) Anywho, Eternia Athletics is in the works. What?! Yep, its for realsies. Our own spot. Its awesome. We are all so excited. Its been truckload or 63...of hard work, sweat, tears and stress. But the end result is that we have a place to workout that's not our garage. To have fun, to laugh, to hangout and cheer each other on. To SLAM BARS....to drink a beer, to release stress, to listen to loud music, to have community, to PR...to fail....to be BETTER then we were yesterday. And that is priceless. Stay tuned...its coming soon!

Me, practicing snatch
