Progress Since January

Well, January is gone...Thought I would post my progress, or lack there of!!!

I have been juggling college (part-time), work (full-time and then some), home cooked meals (every day), training (running or Crossfit: 3-4 times a wk), etc, etc.

Needless to say, life is hectic, but I am trying to handle it as calmly as possible. With that being said...I'm off to a rocky start. I have gotten a little lazy with my "clean" eating. I ended January with about 70% Paleo diet. This month, I began another 100% 30 day Paleo program to clean out my insides and get me back on track. I mushed once. I had a sliver, if you can even call it that, of chocolate cake. It was a young girl's birthday...I had to participate :) I mean, how rude would it have been if I didn't! BTW, my birthday is coming up this week and I am skipping out on the cake portion. I guess it's my way to make up for my tripping face first into the chocolate cake.

Moving on...I have been cooking for myself and two other people at work. This is no easy task. There are many benefits of cooking for others. One that is especially awesome right now, is the accountability level I must live at. Since I am cooking for others, I have to make sure I get something cooked up for the next day. This makes me stay on track. Another awesome reason is I get to help others along on their health journey. That was the main reason I started blogging in the first place. So, how cool is that. I know, people don't say cool anymore, but whatevs...

My additional goal: GET BACK TO OLYMPIC LIFTING
***This is a love of mine. It has been hard to be away. I attended an Olympic meet this weekend, and I just felt in me, that I needed to make the time to get back into it. Love is a two way street...and I know Olympic lifting misses me too! I jumped on a platform this weekend and worked on some lifts. NOT impressive at all. I  have a little work to do to get back to where I was, but I'll get there, and then go farther! Well, cheers for now, peeps. I leave you with this: GO AFTER YOUR DREAMS PEOPLE...NO ONE'S GONNA CHASE THEM FOR YOU!!!
