70 Days Till WDW2.0 HUZZAH!
Wednesday is a CrossFit day, and the work day leading up to the work out was stressful, I needed to blow some steam. ON top of that I feel like food and I are having a bad argument... Food no longer calls, it won't talk to me anymore, it makes faces at me when I visit it at the grocery store...! Stupid Food! Our relationship sure has suffered since CrossFit entered the picture ;) lol
Nah... But seriously, the Diet that comes with the CrossFit Challenge is tough. On top of that I'm trying to manage things with my Diabetes, so that alters the diet plan as well. So far I've just tried to mush my old diet with this new one, adjusting where I can to make sure that my glucose levels stay where they need to be. If they aren't high enough when I go work out I feel shaky and awful afterwards... kinda like today. Oops.
Big mistake... I had a late lunch of Grilled Chicken, Baby Carrots, and a couple strawberries... but it wasn't enough carbs to last me through workout. I felt the crash, and the fact that Beau is crazy intense only made things more evident.
That Guy really pushes us, Which is totally awesome. I just need to be better prepared for workouts with him by making sure my blood sugar is high enough before the work out so that I don't pass out or anything crazy like that. Still learning how to balance things! (just in case you were worried... no I haven't passed out ;) )

Monday - CrossFit with Mandy (sore muscles of the day... Shoulders and Abs)
Tuesday - Personal Trainer day with Kylee (we did lunges... my poor legs are so stiff!)
Wednesday - CrossFit with Beau (All of me hurts... especially my legs and some arms)
Okay... Truth is that this is challenging. But I'm LOVING IT! I didn't know if I would but I do. I feel so proud of every work out I accomplish and of every small victory of simply going and doing my best.
I think a major thing I've been learning is to have patience with myself. I want it all to happen fast and right now. But change isn't like that... But then messing up doesn't derail things either... both are gradual. One day here or a bad day there... these things are all recoverable if I just keep trying and starting over. Forgiving myself for making mistakes on this journey of fitness is hard but golly I've got to keep trying. Nothing changes in just one day, but it all gets better the longer I keep trying.
Forgivness... and perspective! I'm almost to my next milestone; and i'm the most fit I've ever been. I feel good. What a crazy thing to realize! I'm blessed for sure.
