Yes, it's day 6 of Paleo and I am feeling gooooood. I have devised a concoction to have for breakfast when I eat my 3 oz of nonfat turkey. This leaves me with having to double the fat, so I have 6 blocks worth of coconut milk (approximately 2.7 oz). I mix this with 1 cup of strawberries (1 block) and 1 cup of blueberries (2 blocks). BAM. 3 block meal.
I've noticed that blocking things out is making me eat more fruit though. My favorite vegetables happen to be spinach and broccoli, which both take a crazy amount of mass to make up one block (think: 10 cups of spinach), so I've been having trouble getting my green leaves in. I'm not yet comfortable with calculating partial blocks and whatnot, so I guess I'll push for more kale on the menu (1.5 cups = 1 block = more doable). I'm just not happy with eating so much fruit.
Today's workout was 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 hang power cleans. I had a 1 rep max of 37 kg. I am pretty happy with it, but if my elbows weren't so darn slow I may have been able to do more. Weights are something I have fun with. The other lady workout out with us was fresh out of the beginner class and was really impressed that I was lifting so much already. I have a long way to go, though, so I'm going to have to befriend some of the coaches at Williams or something so that I'll have someone to watch my form and reminds me to get my elbows up. Otherwise I don't see myself progressing super fast.
