Forever
Wow, it’s been forever since I posted anything here. I’m in the process of switching from zone to paleo, just waiting on some pasture/humanely -raised meat. We’ll be picking up some chicken this weekend from the farmer’s market. I ordered beef from a local farm and am now just waiting on the delivery… which might take 2 weeks! YIKES! But maybe the chicken (&...

Focus -
Well, this weekend was a bit of a wake-up call for me. Felt horrible, drank too much, ate too much crap. I have decided to focus on my nutrition and cut out the alcohol.
I’ve been eating good today so far, few carbs and no junk. I want to keep this up and cut out my “weekend o’cheat meals” tradition that I’ve started the past few months. It has gotten...

Dairy
Okay, so I keep hearing that dairy is bad for you. I hate the idea of this and have been ignoring it for awhile b/c it’s going to be very hard for me to give up dairy. I mean, seriously, how many meals can have eggs as the main protein source?
However, starting next week, I am going to make a conscious effort to not eat cheese with EVERY meal/snack like I do now. :)

Weekend of bad eating and no CrossFit. I did spend Saturday doing yard work & helping Adam cut down an apple tree, which involved hauling heavy things over short distances. 20 Burpees total for the whole weekend.
Eating was awful, lots of crap, soda (which I NEVER drink) and too many carbs to even think about. Back on track today. I have got to refocus. I’ve been feeling really...

So I think I kind of get this tumblr. blogging now. I’ve got my page all set up and it seems to look alright even if you can’t see half of the links due to font color issues… but regardless, I think I’m going to start using this as my food log b/c it’s very user friendly.
We’ll see…

Well, I’m trying out this new blog site just to see how it works. I typically blog on blogger at http://xfitk8.blogspot.com but am always looking for cooler places to use.
