Then a patient bought us pizza...3) stayed really busy so didn't get any stretching done11/201) PLP day 12 done 2) paleo eatsBreakfast: coffeelunch: Mexican chicken rice bowl. Chicken, rice, salsa, pico, lettuce, fajita veggies, and jalapeño Dinner: beef and cabbage stew3) took an extra 10 minutes post workout to stretch. also, ANOTHER PR!I didn't want to workout at all yesterday but I forced myself to to anyways. Complaining the whole drive to the gym and the warm up. When I started my squats I decided I didn't feel like doing 5x5 so I started relatively low and decided to do sets of 5 or failure, upping weight by 5 each set. Results:165 x5170 x5175 x5180 x5185 x4190 x3195 x2200 x1 <<<epic quest level up!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mdowning Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 11/21 1) PLP day 12. Complete 2) paleo eats Breakfast: black coffee Lunch: work put on a chili cook off. I ate. A lot. Then they had cornbread. I live cornbread. It wasn't the healthiest thing I've eaten. Dinner: chicken with mixed veggies and some rice. 3) nope. Perhaps I should rethink this? 11/22 1) PLP day 13. Nailed it 2) paleo eats. Breakfast: scramble with sausage, peppers, and onion Lunch: primal pizza casserole Dinner: paleo chicken tortilla soup 3) did some light stretching after my PLP. Work has been crazy since I'm doing so much overtime I'm finding that when I have downtime, I much prefer to relax or nap. Fun EMS work story time! So, I was working an overtime shift yesterday (11/21) and my typical day is pretty boring. Lots of drunks either college kids who party too hard or homeless people who just don't care l, but nothing really interesting. Turns out, I need to work overtime during the day more often.

Mdowning Posted December 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Holy holiday derailment!!!So, thanksgiving completely threw me off everything. Poor diet, skipped workouts, etc.week 3 was a bust. Now to start the second half of the challenge, I'm debating something. To pick up my PLP where I left off (day 17), to start all over, or to try something else all together. No ideas what I would do, but it's an idea. I'm back to my paleo foods today, and workouts are planned for tomorrow and Wednesday. I'm getting myself back on track. I'm ready to finish this strong! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nightcrawler_Bamff Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 I planned ahead that I wouldn't be staying on track for thanksgiving, but at least conscious of what I was eating, then got right back on track after. That is my favorite method for getting through holidays and vacations. That way I don't feel deprived and it's easier to get back on track 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
