It's been a while.  No excuses.  But it has. I find my self in a strange place as I write this.  For the past 4 weeks I have been in pain.  Why, I don't know yet.  But it seems I MAY have a herniated or "blown" disc in my lumbar, and possibly also an injury of the SI (sacroiliac) joint.  I haven't been doing much of anything but staying home and chilling.  But that means, NO CROSSFIT!!! GAH!

Okay, this isn't your standard Salisbury Steak...and if you're anything like me, that's probably a good thing.  I had a giant zucchini sitting around that a friend gave me, and I wasn't sure what to do with it.  I love zucchini, but sometimes during the summer I get a little tired of it.  I don't eat pasta, but I was craving some "comfort food".  That's how this idea came about.  It's a little

So it is the end of the 2010 Spring Paleo Challenge at http://www.level10crossfit.com/, and to my utter surprise, I am in the TOP 5 LOSERS!!  I haven't seen the photos yet, but I know that all the top 5 have lost between 17-25 pounds.  I believe I lost 18 pounds....but I am beginning to wonder now because during our last workout Santos said to me "It's a lot easier to do those burpees when you

Chop up the kale & set it aside. Fry about 3 strips of bacon (nitrate free!), then chop it up and set it aside. Then saute some shallots & fresh chopped garlic in the bacon grease (or drain the grease and use olive oil - about 3 tbsp) for a minute or two, add the kale, then start putting in the kale until it cooks down, adding more until it's all in. Pour in about 1/2 a cup of chicken broth and

Last weekend (not to be confused with Memorial Day Weekend, but the weekend before, jic) I ran myself into a ragged mess.  I became exhausted, and what followed was a week of the worst sinus infection I've had in quite a while!  I ended up at the Dr. twice, the first time, getting a healthy battery of antibiotics, then the second time, getting a steroid shot to build me up once and for all.  I

I don't really know why, but this Paleo Challenge has been much easier to stick to than the last one.  Maybe it's because the last one came in the midst of all the major fall/winter holidays, and I have a history of terrible will power! Today's WOD was: 200m run then 6 rds of 10 box jumps (18in) 10 push ups Fence Sprint then 200 m run followed by 5 min kettlebell snatches followed by evil

May is a big month for us.  We have two birthdays (Josiah is 8, Jeremiah is 5)...Anniversary (9 yrs on Cinco de Mayo)...and this year we have Haley graduating with her Bachelors Degree...along with two music dates for the band and the various other daily busyness-things we do.  When I am busy, sometimes I forget to eat.  That is a bad time to go shopping, or out to lunch, or even look at food.

I think that my next weight loss goal-landmark will be rewarded with new workout wear. Lets say at the 50 pound mark, shall we? So a new Paleo Challenge has started. I'm looking forward to it. This time there was a $20 buy-in...and I bought in. It's an 8 week challenge. I believe I can do it. I'm going to try really really hard! Just in time for Spirit West Coast.

Today's workout was Cindy: #5 pull ups or #10 jumping pullups #10 pushups #15 bodyweight squats... for as many rounds as you can do in 20 minutes. I did 8 rounds plus 2/3 a round with jumping pullups. The animal athletes did as many as 20 rounds! Someday....

Filthy 50 is a Crossfit workout. Most Crossfit workouts have girl names....like Helen or Cindy. But the especially miserable ones have special names, like Code Brown, Filthy 50, or 7 Layers of Hell. Yesterday, Filthy 50 consisted of the following (mine was slightly modified to 30 reps for the last 3 movements and regular jumpropes instead of double-unders): # 50 Box jumps # 50 Jumping pull-ups

Well, sorry it's been a while since I've been here.  But I'm going to at least try to post my WODS every time.  Wish me luck....or blessings...or whatever you can wish me that will help me remember to do this!

I finally feel great again. Not quite 100%, but getting there. The diet is dialed in again and I feel capable during my workouts.  And I am finally losing again.  That feels better than anything! Today's workout (I don't remember it EXACTLY, but this is CLOSE): 500 m Row 60 jumping pull ups 15/15 db snatches 5/5 db thrusters 30 jumping pullups 10/10 db snatches 10/10 db thrusters 500 m Row 20

I remember the third day after I started Crossfit.  I had nausea, full-body aches, and I almost lost my bowels in the middle of Raleys!  I was having a classic detox - I remember that from fasting.  Well I think I may be detoxing again, because my whole body hurts, I'm having the cha-cha's (diarrhea, for those who haven't seen Parenthood), and I feel like puking!  I'm eating right and trying to

Workouts have been tough since I've been back to faithful.  It's actually been hard to get back to faithful because of all the stuff going on in my life.  I find myself on the verge of tears in the middle of every workout because of the emotional and physical release I feel whenever I workout.  Getting back to eating well has been the hardest part. I'm still struggling with it, but I'm trying not

Today is the first day I am really committed to returning to my good eating habits.  I started the day with scrambled eggs with bell pepper, ground turkey and pepper jack cheese (very little - I'm weaning) and 2 bacon strips.  I also had fresh juice (apple, banana, pineapple & orange) from my new Jack laLaine Power Juicer! I'm feeling the burn from yesterday's workout.  We did some new things in

Since Thanksgiving I have definitely "fallen off the wagon".  My grandmother has been ill off & on for a month now.  I have reverted back to emotional eating, which has led to eating for convenience, which has led to sinus problems due to extra mucous production, which has led to missing workouts, which means that now I am back to where I was when I started the Paleo Challenge 3 months ago.  Meh.

The following is a piece of an email I sent to a friend today. Please ignore it. I need friends...ears...shoulders. I apologize for any sarcasm or bitterness to follow. It is ABSOLUTELY not directed at you. It's just there...part of my fragile emotions, I think. I'm so exasperated I don't even know what I need. I need to skip December, I think. It's just a reminder to us of what we can't do. I

Chicken Asparagus Rolls Pound out about 4 boneless/skinless breasts. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt. If you're feeling REALLY adventurous put a slice of provolone or mozzarella in first. Then place about 5-6 asparagus stalks inside (I like to use Trader Joe's frozen, but thawed). Roll it up and drizzle the outside with a bit of olive oil and a little squeeze of fresh lemon.

Today was the Filthy 50....but we modified...only did 30...and I finished again.  And I didn't die.  Again.  Even though I was sick with this STUPID sinus infection, I pushed through because I didn't want to miss 2 workouts in a row.  So here it is: 30 Box jump, 18" box 30 Jumping pull-ups 30 Kettlebell swings, 35 lb 30 Walking Lunge 30 Situps 30 Push press, 33 lb bar 30 Back extensions 30 Wall

Today was my birthday.  I was VERY good all day until dinner....we went to Applebees.  I had a small margarita, appetizers (about 6 dynamite shrimp, 2 BBQ boneless chicken bites, and 2 mozzerella sticks), a few bites of loaded mash, and a bite of smothered chicken with onions & peppers.  THEN, they brought

As you know I've been going to Crossfit since the end of August 2008.  It has been quite a journey, and I didn't realize how much I've changed until I saw these pictures. In Pictures 1-4 I was at the peak of my weight - 290 pounds.  I was there for about 2 years.  Miserable.  Uncomfortable.  Always sweaty.  Always tired.  And ALWAYS eating.  My doctor put me on Cholesterol medication which was

HEY! Guess what....I started Crossfit a year ago at 290. This morning I weighed 248!!! OMG, I am thrilled! Gotta love that Paleo Challenge... Yesterday we did Cindy: I did 8-2/3 sets, 10 jumping pull ups, 10 push ups, 15 bodyweight squats.  Then onto the push press: 65 lbs max 5x5.  I feel it.  Oh yes I do.

I know, I know....I shouldn't say things like that about myself.  But hey, when a girl hits 290, it tends to make her feel a little......I don't know......FAT!  The truth is, today I am 40 pounds lighter, and getting ready to hit the downhill slope of the other 50 pounds I intend to lose in the next year.  But not everyone can do that right now....and, no condemnation for that.

Tonight I whipped up a really tasty dinner.  I took some leftover broccoli stalks, 2 baby Zukes, 1/4 red onion and 1/2 red bell pepper and chopped it up fine in my little chopper.  Then I sauteed that in a saucepan with some olive oil, garlic and chicken broth until it was soft and the broth was gone.  Then I added a can of Trader Joe's Marinara and heated it thoroughly with about 1/4 cup of

So here is lunch today.  I wanted to emotionally eat something bad, carb-laden and deep fried.  But I made this soup instead.  Remember Thai Stir Fry Soup?  This is the latest Variation....I cooked some broccoli, asparagus and red bell pepper, then I added some pre-cooked shrimp and chicken.  I then added garlic, baby bok choy, zucchini strips, chopped green onion, coconut milk, chicken broth,

So today was stressful, and I had to fight to prevent emotional eating!  I thik it began last night.  I was wiped from a busy day.  We drove home at almost 6:30 P.M. only to find that we had NO HOUSE KEY!!  So we ended up driving BACK to town (we live 10 miles outside of town) and decided to eat at Applebee's.  All eating was fine until then, and even then it was good - except for the boneless

When you hear "I don't think it's leukemia" from your 4 year old sons Dr when nobody suggested it you get suspicious.

So days 2-3 of the Paleo Challenge have left me VERY HAPPY!  My intense hunger has completely left me.  I am FULL at every meal, which is not like me at all.  In fact, I'm not finishing MOST meals.  Last night, and lunch today I had what I am calling Thai Stir Fry Soup.  It is an assortment of veggies, including baby bok choy, green beans (boo, but I love them), bell pepper, broccoli, red onion

Today was interesting!  But first some backstory...Because I felt so guilty about not making it to Friday's workout I decided to do the 50/40/30/20/10 lunges/situps workout on the front yard.  I only did 50 and 20 because my son found it impossible to leave me alone while I worked out!  But I also did some burpees and was pleased to find that I could do 5 straight without stopping! So I get to

This is what my son Jeremiah's gland under his chin looks like today. (A little young for an Adams Apple, don't you think? Mono? Don't know. I'm going to call for the blood test results right now!

Today is the start of the Paleo Challenge and I am not there because my little guy may have Mono!  So I'll have to workout at home today.  Creativity, come to me! Later Addition: I didn't workout on Friday but I did on Sunday...I did a 50/20 lunge/situp workout...then did the 50/40/30/20/10 lunge/situp workout the NEXT DAY at Crossfit....MURRR!!!

YAY! Another PR!!  I deadlifted 225 today!!  I lifted with a great young man named Trevor.  He killed it at 295!  Then we did a dreaded 15 minute killer...200m Run, 4 Bear Crawls, and 15 Db presses (20 lb).  I did 2 1/2 rounds...I have such a hard time with those freaking bear crawls!  Alas...there will be another day....

So it's Diagnostic Week at L10XF. Today we did 5x5 Back Squats (I think?).  I am not entirely sure what my last back squat was because I couldn't find it in my book.  But today it was 125lb!!  We also did a 1000m Row for time.  My last 1000 was 4:23.1.  Today it was 4:11.9.  PR, BABY!!!  Then I looked back at my last PR for deadlift, and it was 148lb.  Friday it was 170!!!!  YAHOO!!! We didn't

Many of you (as though there are so MANY of you reading this right now) know that I have been training with Santos at Level 10 Crossfit for the past 11 months.  Before major surgery in March 17th, 09 I had lost 35 pounds.  Once I had surgery I gained approximately 15 pounds back.  I returned to Crossfit in mid-June and am now back down to 35 pounds lost total.  My goal is to lose at least 50

Today was "A" day...everything in the key of A. Service was a little different. Opening Song, Welcome, Offering (with a song), 3/4 of the message, 3.25 worship songs, the rest of the message, then a closer....Picture this:Counting on God (Gateway)Alabaster Jar (Gateway?)My Savior My God (Aaron Shust)All The Way My Savior Leads Me (Tomlin)Just As I Am (1 stanza)Jesus Paid It All (Passion Version)
