Day 6 (With Pictures!!!)

D (9/4): carrots, cucumber, salmon

B: 1 whole egg - 2 egg whites - green onions - peppers - 2 leaves of kale - mushrooms - spinach

S1: 3 baby carrots and a piece of beef

D: Rosemary garlic chicken, ratatouille

Notice the last item on the food list: ratatouille. That's right, I made ratatouille. At first I "bit off more than I could chew" by under estimating the size of a "large pot" in the recipe. It calls for a large pot. I had to make it in two pots. And froze 4 servings because it made so much. But! It made me feel gourmet when combined with the chicken. I had sliced a clove of garlic and inserted it into the chicken, (cut slits) then rubbed it with rosemary and grilled it. The ratatouille was good alone, but the combo was amazing.

I guess I don't really need to post what I am eating, but it's proof that I am.

The other thing that I did today: WOD (workout of the day)

20 Burpees - 50 Pushups - 20 pull ups (or bodyweight rows) - 50 dips - 20 bench jumps - 50 ab twists (with 10lb ball) - 120s plank - 50 "good mornings" - 30 ball pushups (15 per arm) - 40 mountain climbers (20 per leg) - 20 chin ups (see above) - 50 jumping jacks (modified for low ceiling) - 50 sit ups - 120s superman

BONUS!!!

50 dips - 50 Pike pushups - 40 side ab crunches (20 per side)

ntb: 29:59.41

When I got into the burpees, about number 6, I knew that I had created a workout that would go over 20min. Took me 29:59.41 to do it all including the bonus round. I also discovered that I have a very weak core; it took a lot of time to do the sit-ups. It's good to know that my mind is still more ambitious than my body. Now I have something to aspire to: my mind's goals.

I was pumped up/twitching most of the day, but felt amazing.

I feel like I should be writing something deep here. Did you know that the closest point on the earth's surface to the earth's core is in the Atlantic ocean even though the deepest point in the ocean is in the Pacific? How's that?

I'm looking forward to going to Hawaii. Really.
