    The Challenge So Far....

     

    Nutrition

    This has been kind of...well poopy.  I mean I'm sure I'm eating enough.  I might be eating too much.  I'm trying to eat quality foods, but a few crappy post-dinner munchie nights have happened.  Maybe I've gained weight, maybe I haven't.  I don't know...I don't weigh and measure myself again for four more days.  I can't believe it's already been almost a month since I last stepped on a scale.  And you know what is probably stupid?  I honestly don't give a fuck if I haven't lost weight, or if I've even gained a little weight.  Because I'm beating myself UP at cf, and I have no doubt I'm holding fluids. AND shit honestly. I'm just so over freaking caring about my weight all day every day.  I can't live that way anymore.  I'm just going to learn to love the body I have.  If it changes for the "better" so be it.  As long as I'm not grossly moving up in weight, I don't care. You know what's even crazier?  I've been contemplating getting a bikini and wearing it, THE WAY I AM NOW.  Fucking crazy right?  I don't give a shit.  I'm a motherfucking honey badger ya'll.

     

    Serenity

    Could use more of this.  I really want to crochet a blanket.  So I'm thinking today I will go to Brügg and get me some turmeric capsules and some yarn.  I should walk more, but maybe if spring actually comes this will happen.

     

    Fun

    My half marathon is three days away.  THREE DAYS.  HOLY SHITBALLS MAN.  I'm counting spontaneous make out sesh as another fun event.  I need one more good and fun event.  I mean something really cool that I'll be like "omg I'm having such a blast!" while I'm doing it.  Does this even happen to grown ups?  Watching my kids play and swooning over their high level of aesthetic appeal doesn't count.

     

    WOD

    I've been killing it.  I mean, sure I suck compared to most everyone else there, but I'm killing ME.  I've surprised myself a lot.  I've changed some.  I'm definitely more confident and more accepting of good criticism.  I have skipped 0 days so far.  This is huge.  I am almost a month into hitting every workout I planned to hit.  BOOM.

     

    Bonus mission: Um after day 4 I fell off the face of the squatting planet.  It was just so nice to lay on the couch, cuddled up instead of squatting while watching The Walking Dead.  Which, I'm totally caught up on now.

    Today's crossfit aka deathtrap

     

    First I just want to let it be known that I whined ALL DAY and seriously could not talk myself into going.  But I put on my pants and did it anyway.  

     

    Warm up

    Random intervals of jumping jacks and lunges, decided by Rolf

    Random intervals of planks, side planks left and right....also decided by Rolf who seriously would get lost in conversation and then finally tell us we could get down

     

    Skill/Strength

    Double unders.  PR ALERT I did THREE CONSECUTIVE DOUBLE UNDERS. Oh yeah, I'm on fire.

    3x8

    Floor press (bar + 10 kg)

    Ring rows (because I still can't do banded pull ups)

    Goblet squat (w/ 12 kg kettlebell)

     

    WOD

    21-15-9

    cals on c2 rower

    behind the neck thrusters

     

    I started off doing my thrusters w/ 2.5 kg plate on each side and had to drop them halfway through first set.  Finished them with just the bar like a wussass.

     

    BUT FUCK IT I WENT!

    Surviving most of the things.

     

    Week went great- great hike w Mr Ham yesterday.

     

     

    Excerpt from the mind journal of "Loving Others Better: My Fight to Tame the Beast Inside":

     

    It would appear that even those close to me are not out of the grasp of my jealousy. Watching someone I care about deeply pick up and do something that I have been working on for what seems like forever causes me to detest them, just in the moment. The simple fact that they are able to accomplish a task doesn't cause me to feel joy for them, it causes my eye to be critical- they're doing it wrong...if they were doing it correctly, they would struggle like I do.  It's not true. We are all our own being, with our own challenges. And if I were truly honest, I don't always try as hard as they do. I need to be better about giving what I am doing my all, not just my some. Somehow, I have to find a way to put myself in a box apart from others. What happened to the days where "I only race against me" was my mantra? When did that change and why? I know that I am making progress, but I'm not working towards someone else's level 50, I'm working towards mine. I need to remember that other things do come easier to me, like celebrating my friends, and being excited for them. I need to be happy that through my gift of encouragement, someone I care about is trying hard to be a better person. I need to remind myself, blatantly and daily, that I am ENOUGH.

    This hits me hard.  I feel this with you lovely lady.  We will overcome these feelings, because we deserve to be loving and joyful creatures.

    I have some serious inflammation around and above my right elbow.  I don't know what it's from--I didn't feel anything wonky happen with the push presses.  But 800 mg ibuprofen isn't curing me and I don't think more cowbell will either.  Taking it easy today, hoping it feels better for cf tomorrow.

    I can't figure out if I'm attracted to him or not. As Sherlock, a definite yes. As Khan, yeah I can see it. As all the other things, not so much. I do love that cigar pic though. 

    I was digging him as Khan until he did this weird smile at some-point-I-don't-recall-when in teh movie...and then all I could think of was The Grinch.  And I couldn't find Khan hawt anymore.

    I was nagging my hasbond the other night, trying to get him to tell me what physical trait he finds most attractive, and he just kept saying "brains." Not like ... zombie loves brain.  But this.  I have to show him this.
