Day 2: It continues

Morning weigh in: 191

Woke up hungry (always a good sign) and only a bit sore and stiff.

Breakfast:
Sliced orange, waited 20 minutes, then:
Angeleen's coffee with heavy cream and cinnamon and Acts 1:
"You Galileans!—why do you just stand here looking up at an empty sky? This very Jesus who was taken up from among you to heaven will come as certainly—and mysteriously—as he left."  The mystery and certainty of God, heh.  There's something to think on during the workout.


Exercise:
Once the caffeine was firmly in the system,  went and worked out on the Wii for a half hour.  Burned 138 calories and totally am digging the skate boarding and rhythm kung-fu.  Jogging on the Fit while using a jogging trampoline?  So much nicer then jogging in place or around the apartment.  Time for protein!

Second Breakfast (yes, like a Hobbit):
2 slices of yesterdays vegetable frittata and a handful of grape tomatoes. 16 oz. water.

Went to check on Crossfit and see if the workout was something I could accomplish.

"Barbara"
Five rounds, each for time of:
20 Pull-ups
30 Push-ups
40 Sit-ups
50 Squats
Rest precisely three minutes between each round.

This is gonna hurt but I think I can do a modified version, switching out the pull-ups (once again) for work with dumb bells and going to complete 3 rounds instead of 5 since I'm still new to this and I don't want to break myself.  Maybe after lunch? Or dinner?

Lunch:
Pear
24 oz. Diet Rite (I need to kick the habit I know)
Wedge of chipotle cheddar
2 slices thin sliced ham
32 oz. water

Snack:
Sugar plum tea (no actual sugar)

Dinner:
Beef Stroganoff over spinach instead of noodles
Salad
Handful of chocolate and a small glass of port for dessert.  Not good.  Guess I'll have to do that Crossfit workout to make up for the indulgence.

Crossfit workout:  the named should be changed from Barbara to Owie.

My first round took 5 minutes even.  I did girl push-ups and I waited longer then 3 minutes between rounds as I was waiting for Matt to complete his round (which took him just under 5 minutes).

My second round took 8 minutes.  Matt abstained from the second and third rounds on the basis that he believes Crossfit is from the devil.

My third round took 12 minutes, 15 seconds.  Whew!  Pretty sure I won't be able to walk tomorrow.

Water: drank another 24 oz.

Off to bed now!
