Week 3 Day 2

6:50 - Wake Up
    Got to sleep about 11, so I ended up with just under 8 hours. Slept well but was under my goal of 8 hours for the night. Definitely going to get my 8 hours tonight.
7:50-8:30 - Breakfast
    I guess I need to start waking up a little earlier so that I can get through all of my breakfast at one time rather than eating a few bites at a time over 45 minutes.
  • 3 Egg Whites
  • 1/2 Grapefruit
10:00 - Hungry
    I noticed both today and yesterday that I got hungry mid morning. I think this is because I only ate the egg whites instead of the whole egg. Unfortunately I am stuck in my classroom and can't eat anything until the end of this class. Going to pay attention tomorrow, when I start eating chicken for breakfast about my hunger mid morning.
10:30 - Snack
  • 1/2 Yellow Bell Pepper
12:45 - Lunch
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Grape Tomatoes
  • 1/4 Cup Pumpkin Seeds
  • Was full after eating the Chicken and Tomatoes, but picked at the Pumpkin Seeds for about 20-30 minutes at my desk to finish them as well.
2:30 - Pre-WOD
  • 3 oz Beef Tenderloin
  • 1/2 Grapefruit
  • 1/2 Oz. Almonds
3:30 - WOD
    2 minutes on the clock
    400 meter sprint
    amrap thruster @ 75/55#
    Rest 5-6 minutes x 5
    (run times should be no longer then 80 seconds - score is total # of reps.)
      Set 1 - 1:21 - 14
      Set 2 - 1:22 - 12
      Set 3 - 1:23 <400 - 12
      Set 4 - 1:24 <400 - 12
      Set 5 - 1:26 <400 - 13
    Loved this workout today. Definitely tough but a great workout, definitely had to work all out for the full 2 minutes.
4:45 - Post-WOD
  • Protein Shake
10:45
  • 1 Trader Joes Spicy Italian Chicken Sausage link
  • 8 Olives
Got home at 6:00 from CFM and passed out, woke up about 10, tried to fall back asleep but couldn't at 11 I was still laying there wide awake and was feeling hungry so I got up and ate the sausage link and olives and went back to bed. Finally fell back asleep about 11:15.

Day 2 in the books

7:00 - Wake up
    Not a real good start to the day, woke up 30 minutes late, some how slept through my alarm. I made a conscience effort to get to bed early last night, and was asleep by 1030, but I woke up at 5 am feel back asleep relatively easily, but then then slept through my alarm at 630. Luckily I packed lunch and breakfast last night, so I was able to get dressed and out the door quickly.
7:30 - Breakfast
  • 2 Hard Boiled Eggs
  • 1/8 Cup Almonds
  • 1/4 Cup Strawberries

    Low energy, felt tired, slight headache in sinuses. Started to get hungry

4:30 - Post WOD Shake 7:00
  • Grilled Pork
  • Broccoli
  • 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
  • 1/8 cup Pumpkin Seeds


Over all felt pretty good today. Had a headache most of the day prior to working out. Not sure what caused it, felt like it was in my sinuses but didn't feel any congestion or anything else. Got hungry pretty quickly this morning, going to try to up protein intake by having 3 hard boiled eggs instead of 2 for breakfast tomorrow. Water was pretty good, drank about 80 oz. Going to shoot for 100 tomorrow. Also going to try to keep sleep at at least 8 hours again tonight to help with low energy during the day and over sleeping my alarm.
