Day 6

Well, we are almost through week 1 and it is safe to say that we have both experienced a "meltdown" of sorts.  I suppose it is only natural when your body is confused and going through shock.  Today, however, I woke up feeling energized and positive!  Last night we worked out at the gym for the first time since last Wednesday.  I know, I know.  We were not great last week, but we were prepping for a trip.  I told Chris that yesterday was the first time in a long time that I wasn't dragging a$$ mid-afternoon and it felt good!  Below is our workout and food intake for the day.

4 rounds for time:
Sandbag Squat Clean x 10 (40# me, 60# Patrick)
Burpee x 10

That workout was rough, but it was good.  I finished in 9:32 and felt pukie for about 30 seconds and then was shocked at how fast I recovered.  That tells me that I am seriously stronger than I ever thought.

Breakfast
Eggs with green peppers, onions, spinach and turkey
Lunch
Turkey and watermelon
Snack
Mixed berries
Dinner
Chicken, green peppers, onions, green beans, and salad with balsamic vinegar

I feel great today; perhaps we are over the hump!
