When Tuesday is just as bad

Tuesday I went to work. A 24 hour on call shift with lots of temptation. By 11:30 pm I really wanted to eat something bad, anything bad. Something non paleo! I was feeling sorry for myself, missing my 8 month old baby at home and in for a long night. Now that is really pathetic- it was only day 2- only 36 hours in! I did not cheat, or did I? Was that square of Black and Green's cheating? It is Paleo. In moderation. I know I read it somewhere. I really did. Maybe on the days that I am on call I can just bring Paleo brownies and ice cream and eat that all day and night. Alas, cheaters don't win and winners don't cheat. A wise man said that.

Breakfast

large iced coffee with heavy cream

2 hard boiled eggs and an avacado with salt and lemon

WOD: I only managed to do 1 round (instead of the prescribed 4) of  of 21 walking lunges and 21 burpees in the staff locker room @ the hospital I work at.

Lunch

left over salad and chicken breast from the prev night

Dinner

seafood salad wrapped in green lettuce leaves, cukes and an avacado

1 square of dark (72%) cacao Black and Green's organic chocolate

Wednesday 5/11/11, finished my call shift at 8 am and headed (like a bat out of hell) to my baby boy who was at the sitter, fed him quickly and  headed to Crossfit. 

This is what I ate:

No breakfast or coffee

Brunch: coffee with heavy cream, 1/2 chicken breast and roasted kale, parsnip and onion.

Dinner: Steak with mushrooms and broccoli sauteed

Avacado, grapefruit, walnut and mixed green salad with vinegar and oil.

This is what I did: WOD @ CFCA (see the workout here crossfitcapeann.com) 

I noticed today that I was not very hungry and no cravings again. I do feel more even tempered and not tired despite my long long night! The workout was great and I did more than I thought I could do! I'm feeling good. I cannot believe I wanted to cheat last night, I felt so energized after the WOD. I'm confident I can do this!
