Day Twelve: 8/23/13

The time has gone fast, yet so slow at the same time. To think I haven't cheated or even contemplated cheating yet is a miracle. It's really not that hard, it's just never allowing yourself a treat once in a while gets defeating. I haven't decided yet what I will do when the 30 days are over. There is still many more days and when if I see the results I want then it will be hard to give up. I do know that I will allow myself some cheat meals/days if I do continue so I don't go crazy. No matter what anyone says, everyone has a cheat meal now and then when on this. C's brother will be in town the day after I finish my 30 days so that will be interesting to see what happens. Oh, the reason I started this whole rant was to tell you the first cheat food I am going to have. Can you guess it?? Think real hard. Not even a roundhouse kick to the electricity could stop me from having these before (IJ-- B). That's right, I want my first cheat to be an Oreo milkshake. YUM!! Okay, enough with the rant. Here's my meals:

Breakfast: 8:45am

Yes, not a great meal but still paleo.

Carrot cake larabar

Mango

3 pieces of bacon

Creatine 

Was so hungry when I go back from dropping C off that I ate this. Whoops. I've seen plenty of people blog about just eating fruit in the morning so hush. I threw in some fat and protein with the bacon.

Lunch: 12pm

Yes, I was starving from my poorly planned breakfast. 

4oz chicken breast with:

Celery, cukes, carrots and two pieces of pepperoni

EVOO & balsamic vinegar

Two pieces of mango- like I said yesterday, I'm trying to cut down my fruit each meal because it used to be my staple. Now, instead of eating it just cause it tastes good, I eat it when I'm still hungry.

Had two small handfuls of raisins for a snack before heading to Trader Joes. Made myself a coconut smoothie when I got back. Soooo soooo sooo soooo good! I can't emphasize it enough!! I will never run out of coconut milk again! Got my fats, my carbs and it tastes like a treat! Perfect combo! 

Also, did 30 minutes of P90x yoga after lunch. I've done this before but haven't tried it in a while. I want to start doing some more yoga since my goal is to become better at CrossFit all around. I want to be better at HSPU and be able to walk on my hands. I think yoga will help me become better at all things CrossFit too. Anyone have any good ideas on yoga tapes I could use at home? There are lots of places I could o around here (including classes at our gym for free which I've taken) but I want to start with some at home right now. Look some up ELT B and give me some ideas. Thanks 

Dinner:

Herb and lemon roasted chicken (without the skin... Even though it would probably be fine, I took it off)

Squash and zucchini

Cukes and carrots 

Mango 

 

Some delicious raspberries as a snack and two cocoroons.
