2 rounds of static holds - 1 min each of 3 different poses. AND I DID IT ALL.
as a belated birthday gift my friend took me to share her session with our personal trainer (i used to train with her in the pre-crossfit days anyway). i ran the 10 minutes there, trained for an hour (still broke a GREAT sweat and found it challenging despite my crossfitting!) and then walked to a healthy place for dinner.
despite the tempting cheese and fried stuff and tofu (yes, i find it tempting) i stayed 100% paleo.
hurray for detoxing from weekend badness.
then i ran 15 minutes home.
so tired. but must make chicken for tomorrow’s lunch.
contimplating taking an off day from crossfit tmr but probably won’t. it’s easier to keep waking up at 6:15 than to take a break from it.

Exercise
REST
The scale this AM had 129.6 - what’s up with that? Well, probably the over indulging at the stagette (mmm cake) and christmas party (mmm chips). But still, I worked out both weekend days so would have hoped to at least break even.
Anyway, here’s catching up on my journal. I was GREAT on sunday - baked for the boy and didnt’ even try a single cookie. AND I only licked one finger ;)
I was pretty good yesterday (forgetting my lunch at home threw me off, but ate NOTHING At the hockey game even though I Wanted bad things!).
Today, back to being spot on!

Nancy with 50# (Level 2): 20:51
In crossfit there are a bunch of workouts called the Girls. They all scare me.
This morning it was time for Nancy:
5 rounds for time
- 400 meter run
- Overhead squat
95 lbs x 1550# x 15 (That’s level 2 for girls)
I was the fastest girl in my class! Finished in 20:51! Yay! AND I did Level 2 which makes me badass again (I wanted to do 35# which is L1, but thought I should try the L2 and DID IT!)
I now want to die. Keep coughing. I think I need a few hits off of my inhaler.
Also, my headache from last night (that I tried to enhance with wine) is no longer. But I still emailed work that I’m not feeling well and am going to be at home today. I think it’s time to shower and nap :)
Proud to report I met my goal of weighing more at the end of the month than at the beginning of the month - I was definitely 129.x on the scale at the gym (forgot to get on the digi scale at crossfit). That’s not as low as I was last week, but that’s okay.
My goals for December:
It’s totally doable. Especially since there’s no all inclusive cruises this month like last year! With my time off from work, I’m going to get even FITTER! YAY!
