Day 4: More of the Same

Snack:
Pear


Exercise:
Wii Fit for a half an hour burning 115 calories


Brunch (can it be called  brunch if eaten at noon?  If the eater hasn't gotten up till 10 I'm gonna say yes):
3 ham and cheese roll-ups with mustard and pickle chips (in a food rut I know, but I'm lazy and just don't care)
24 oz. ice water
Coffee with cream and cinnamon (actually only about a half a cup)


Today is Monday which means it's Weekly Home Blessing Day!  Gonna strip beds, scrub the bathroom, dust and vacuum EVERYWHERE and take down the Christmas decorations.  Just a few things.  Matt and the boys have Scouts tonight so something fast and easy for dinner.  Matt said he wants to try the Crossfit workout so we'll tackle that after they get back from their meeting. 


Today's Crossfit being undoable for me I puttered around their site and found a section for modifications for the daily workouts.  Huzzah!  They even have a modification for what they call puppies, which I'm assuming is for newbs like myself.  Here's a different take on the WotD:


Puppies:

Three rounds for time of:
5 Muscle-up progressions (Seated, Jumping or squat)
25 Squats

The other option is to sub 4/1 pull ups, push ups to dips.

So in substituting that would possibly be:  20 push-ups, 20 dips, and 25 squats per round.  We'll see what that looks like later...



Snacks (throughout the day):
Odawalla Berry Superfood
1/2 bottle Diet Pepsi
24 oz. water
1/4 c. chocolate chips

Dinner:
Whole wheat tortillas filled with brown rice mixed with parsley and lemon, homemade hummus made with no oil, grape tomatoes, red onion, and cucumber.  I ate 2 and shoulda stopped at one.  Ugh!  Very full, but the carb itch was definitely scratched.

Got all the Christmas cleaned up, but for the tree and got the bedrooms raked out.  You would not believe the laundry I have!  Tackling that is going to be a workout all on it's own.  Speaking of workout.

Matt got home from his meeting and we knocked out the Crossfit WotD (I'm forgetting what it's like not to have stiff legs).  Anyway our times:

Round 1: Took me 1:49 and that was dropping the dips to just 10, 'cause dang!  Matt's time was 2:36, but he did the full 20, 20, 25.

Round 2: My time was 1:59.  Matt's time was 2:41

Round 3:  My time was 1:51.  Matt's time was: 2:15

More water: 20 oz.

So I'm not looking any thinner, but I'm feeling better, more toned.  It's too soon to see, but all the calisthenics are making me less jiggly.  At least that's what I'm going to tell myself tomorrow when I can't lift my arms.
