day 1

-yep day 1 is almost done....can't complain really, it's been a pretty darn good day! drank lots of water today and stayed 100% whole30 compliant, although the menu wasn't all that fancy. hardboiled eggs, banana with almond butter for breakfast, spaghetti sauce with veggies for lunch (no-sugar added ragu from walmart!!) and sausage, olives and an orange for dinner....i know, weird stuff but i haven't been hungry all day so that's a good thing, right!? i didn't have time to go to the store today like i had planned so i just ate what was on hand.

-i weighed myself this morning for a "before" weight....181.6!! i promise i will not weigh myself again until day 30....holy crap that is gonna suck for me! oh well - i really want to focus on how food makes me feel and how i feel in my clothes and during my workouts.

-one of the things i loved about my last whole30's was how my clothes just started to actually fit.....some even got loose! i found that i wasn't stretching out my husband's t-shirts so they wouldn't hug my stomach and i could actually wrap a towel ALL the way around my body after my shower. i had a brand new wardrobe of clothes that i had bought when i was heavy (ya know, to wear when i lost weight....lol) that now began to fit my new body. well when i had my sinus surgery i of course stopped in the middle of my 3rd whole30 and thought, hey i'll just eat "normally" through the holidays and re-start again in 2012....ya right!! though i have actually only gained back about 4 pounds, all my hard earned muscle is gone and my clothes are getting tight again which only proves that muscle does weigh more than fat and that's why my clothes fit better when i was working out and eating clean even though i stilled weighed the same. i am mad at myself for eating like crap (and feeling like crap) for over a month now. back to business!

-speaking of workouts....i haven't been to crossfit since nov. 11 of last year!! i tore my quad muscle and then had sinus surgery in dec. and just kept having excuses....blah, blah, blah. i am infamous for my "excuses" - LOL! omigosh, i am so nervous to go back and totally suck and "start" over again (i had been going fairly consistently for a year before that), but it has to be done....i miss it. i crave it. i want it to be a big part of my lifestyle so bad! so enough talking and wishing and wanting....just do it, right!? ok, i will, i will.
