Oh Boy, what could it be?
Good luck to everyone at todays WOD! Wish I could be there.
Today I WILL drink the required amount of water…and Reese’s Halloween pumpkins are the devil;)

Wishing everyone strength as we continue through this challenge!
Loving roasted tomato!! Putting them on everything. Thanks Beth for the recipe.
Made it through a 7th birthday party at Dave & Busters that was filled with temptations! Going to Outback now to enjoy a good steak to cut the cravings!
Beth/Keith…. Would doing yoga count as a workout and mobility, thus allowing a protein shake.
One good thing from this is last night I made a dinner of chicken, sausage with peppers & onions, and salad. My oldest (10) had her green lettuce with strawberries and grapes and loved it, and just asked ME if she could have a salad!! I found something new to pack with her lunch!
Ken, Sorry no protein shake after yoga but it would count as either mobility or a workout at DHCF.
Great WOD this AM, despite the nit picky Cumberlonian that called and complained about us WODing on the softball field.
Great Job on WOD today at the park! Little wet and a little mudddy but every team got double digit rounds. Woot! Woot!
Getting really sick of grilled chicken salad for lunch. What is everyone else doing for lunch?
Cant wait to hear about the person who complained. Didn’t they see your “Diamond Hill” shirts? Lol. Slacker today. No workout for the mcginns but 2 soccer games and chasing 4 kids should be 1/2 a point!
Good news is I made it through the Army/BC football game without any slips! Bad news is I nearly took my friend out for her chocolate chip cookie post game before composing myself.
Toddler WOD this morning. Burpees with my 3 year old and pushups and squats with her on my back. We’ve got a future Crossfitter in the making.
Ghee makes a wonderful polish when spilled all over everything. Order now and get two containers for the price of two. That’s a whopping 0% savings.
I’m calling Vince now for my Shamwow.
Jeff – haha! I also did a few squats with my 5 year old on my shoulders yesterday. Should definitely be worth a few points!
Also – had dinner at XO Cafe in Providence last night. Its a farm-to-table restaurant and had lots of good dinner options if anyone is looking for a good spot to eat out. Hardest part was refusing the pre-dinner cocktail.
Ran a personal best 5K today. Thanks to Crossfit for making me strong and this challenge for cleaning up my eating!
no almond flour on whole30, right? keep finding great paleo recipes i want to make…but so many have this in them..
Said a prayer in church this morning to help get me through this challenge.
GO PATS!!!
Great job Holly! Preparing to stand my ground at an afternoon cocktail party. Hoping that scallops wrapped in bacon will be passed around – lol!
Nom-nom paleo website has a tasty recipe for slow cooker pork, had it on salad, with sweet potatoes, it’s been feeding me for a couple of days, and thank you coach Beth, love the banana and almond butter!
Hope to have a great day today to make up for some minus points last night.
Struggling today to find food to eat… too lazy to make something… its just a blah day!
Unfortunately we have not been able to find any bacon without sugar so if you have been eating bacon check those labels.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
Stay focused week one is almost over get ready to WOD tomorrow!
Homemade guacamole with veggies. Good football snack
As for the bacon, I picked up applegate, uncurred at stop and shop. Ingredients say “….contains less than 2% cane sugar…” But in the nutrition facts is says 0g for carbs and sugar. Thoughts???
Stayed strong today.
Third trip in a week to the market for bananas. Thinking the cashier may suspect I have a monkey at home.
Also, re: the bacon…the Nature’s Promise brand says the same thing!
This is a yummy kale salad I made pre-challenge – it’s a great lunch or dinner! You can always cut back on the raisins – and read the ingredients for a good dijon: http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipe/kale-waldorf-salad – and another one I made tonight is slice brussel sprouts like they are discs and put them in a pan with melted ghee (generously to coat brussel sprouts) – cook them until brown and sprinkle with sea salt when they are done – YUM!!
