I started Crossfit workouts in November of 2009, right before Crossfit ATP became totally Crossfit. I went sugar free on July 5th, 2011. I promptly lost 12 pounds in 30 days. I also cut out most of the bread and all the diet soda at that same time. After those 30 days I felt great, happy where I ended up...
Then I hear about this Stronger/Healthier Challenge at the gym. It's a 6-week contest and you have all these different components that are a part of it. Weight loss, BMI and Body Fat reduction, a benchmark workout, a timed mile run, and a journal requirement. Everything that goes into your mouth and all your workouts need to be recorded. The Grand Prize is a FREE 1-year membership to the gym...a.k.a. An Incredible Savings. I am very competitive and was so successful with going sugar free that I went for it. What an amazing experience. It was difficult and I do really want a milkshake right now, but I will get over it. I also had the opportunity to do it with the most amazing people! Everyone looks so SEXY now!!! I mean...I don't know what the Hard Rock is going to do with all of us on Saturday night.
Win or lose...I already won. Hello jeans from high school. You are now too dated to wear outside the closet but you fit like a glove (and not like ithey would fit on O.J.). I have to buy all new clothes. Winner, winner...grilled chicken dinner.
The blog postings before this are my journal...enjoy!
