bfast: scrambled eggs, bacon and some grapes
lunch: steak salad at the yard house, sans dressing sub oil/vinegar
dinner: steak at the shorebird and salad with oil/vinegar, pineapple

day two...
i survived...barely. i didn't plan my food very well today and i was starving all day and not really digging what i ate. basically, i ate the same thing as i did yesterday...happy, happy, joy, joy.
bfast: egg biscuit thing w/a dollop of guac, 2 chunks of cantaloupe
lunch: 2 chix lettuce tacos (same as yesterday), few pieces of cantaloupe, 1/4 bottle of coconut water
dinner: pork loin, broccoli and cauliflower, apple banana, handful of black olives (not sure if these are true paleo but whatevs...better than busting into some donuts!)
i think i may be eating too much fruit. i really need to meal plan better so i don't get bored and aggro that i can't eat the freaking donuts...lol.
the wod today was "michael"
3 rounds for time
800m run
50 back extensions
50 sit ups
i did the first round rx and the scaled down the last two to sd (2 laps reed lane, 25/25). 25:17
fvck, i really HATE running. i think, actually i KNOW i hate it cuz i'm not good at it. when we did "griff" on tuesday, i was so pissed that i was last...i literally started crying on my second punchbowl loop, realized how ridic it was and started to try to get focused again but not before hyperventilating from said crying...what an idiot!
i'm not good at sucking and crossfit frustrates me, which is why i show up everyday...so that's a good thing. hopefully, one day when i grow up, i'll be able to do a full on handstand and a muscle up!!!
so glad day dos is over...i think i was in a pissy mood today. 5am is gonna come early so i better put my pissy self to bed and get ready for the 6am wod and CONQUER day 3.
i have a friend flying in tomorrow...little does she know she will be going on the paleo tour...hahahahahaha.
night, night.

in the beginning...
i've known about crossfit for some time now. our good friend ryan was always talking about it and was working at cfo when we moved to oahu. you think i would've checked it out...no, i was lying on the beach stuffing my face with malasadas, shave ice, dole whips or whatever other crap i could find.
after having multitudes of visitors and having to play tour guide and take them to all the fun places...ie, wear a bathing suit and see pics of me in said bathing suit...holy shit, i had to do something.
i ride my bike to work but it's not that demanding of a ride...quite leisurely actually. going to the gym on my own was really not an option. going to 24 hour fitness and watching people hang on cardio machines and having to wait to use the cardio equipment was so frustrating.
i had been crusing the cfo website for some time, the biggest deterrent was cost. especially since 24 only charged me $25/month vs $75/month for the cheapest option at cfo. but really, i was only using 24 to take showers after my bike rides...expensive showers!
after some soul searching...err, i mean looking in the mirror...i finally had enough. on june 26th i went to the intro class. as everyone before me, i was intimidated and felt like an idiot. the into wod was tough but i figured it's now or never. luckily, elements was starting the next week so i signed up, paid and the rest is history!
i LOVED elements! met some great people and continue to work out with them. the camaraderie is like no other. doesn't matter if you are last, the cheers are still there.
i'm NOT a morning person but it's funny that i can pop right out of bed at 5am to go to crossfit. i'm definitely hooked and drinking the oh so delicious kool-aid.
along with crossfit comes paleo. we are kicking off a 60 day paleo challenge today! i'm excited to dial in on my nutrition and stop eating junk. i'm also excited to NOT be mortified when my touristas are snapping pics in said bathing suit :)
in it to win it!!!
