Day 1 - Weight 322.6 lbs. - Reality Bites

I weighed 322.6, which is a good 8 pounds more than I wanted to weigh. I ate weird on Saturday and less weird on Sunday, in expectation of having to go hardcore Paleo today, so it's to be expected, I guess. Today's WOD ("Angie," if you're a Crossfit person) whipped me but good, and I'm half surprised to be feeling alright. I'm struggling with life things that hopefully, by Thursday, will be resolved. I'd like to establish a routine but that may not happen. And so, I press on.

I think it could be said that I eat more fruit than is ideal. This is for practical reasons; I just can't prepare and eat that much veggie carbs right now. I'm working to revamp everything to make it possible to eat less fruit. One way is to better block out meals and snacks, such as 4 four-block meals plus three blocks of snacks. We'll see what I can do.

For my readers': Fry mix is a combination of Paleo-approved veggies that I measure and then calculate how much would be a block (10 carbs). It is mostly good veggies (such as beans or broccoli or mushrooms) with peas added to add carbs to de-bulk. The aggregate quantity of peas in a serving is quite low. My old version included a number of things available only in cans (such as water chestnuts and bamboo shoots); now it's all fresh or frozen.
I'm still learning so I may tweak the format of this blog, FYI.

I had to run to the store for a late afternoon snack after a killer Crossfit day, and I think I did alright. Based on the rules and all that, my total points for the day: 0
