Golden Birthday 4/7/15

My Day
Today is my youngest sons "Golden Birthday" (he turns 7 on the 7th). Today is all about being present, no mindless snacking, knowing I am drinking plenty of water, and focus. During The Open I did not do extra accessory work - that all gets added back in today. Lots of body weight work and running. Bleh. I know I need it, but it's just SO hard! The day ended up great. We had family over for dinner, there was a light rain, and all is right in the world.

My Food
Breakfast: eggs, sweet potatoes, mint tea
Snack: Ostrim Peppered beef stick
water water water water water water
Lunch: three hotdogs (no bun and no fillers), cabbage, La Croix Apricot water
Snack: sugar free latte
Dinner: Spaghetti squash and meatballs. MMMMMMMM and a few chocolate covered strawberries - only cause it's Mason's birthday ;)

My Weekend
This weekend has been busy busy. We threw a surprise party for my son Mason (turning 7), there was a date night in there, and Easter. Whew! The sun is out today and I am not TOO bitter about going back to work tomorrow.

My Food
I ate it all. I had a few beers, wine, cotton candy, popcorn, a hot dog, pizza, and candied bacon. It was all delicious. I do need to get back on track, so Sam went to the grocery store for eggs, green veggies, pork, and tuna. Back on Track.

Saturday:

Rest day....sort of. I killed a few rounds of a Moon Bounce Obstacle Course. Pretty sore from that - but it was really fun.

Sunday: 32:05
Row, 1000 m 10 Thrusters, 75 lbs Row, 750 m 15 Thrusters, 75 lbs Row, 500 m 20 Thrusters, 75 lbs Row, 750 m 15 Thrusters, 75 lbs Row, 1000 m 10 Thrusters, 75 lbs
This sucked. This workout was invented by my husband, Sam. I hated it. I wanted to quit. It was hell. Rowing is something I need to work on. Thrusters just suck. Period. I got to do this in the sunshine, but this sucked. I dry heaved at the end.
