It's true what they say, give a mouse a piece of cheese and he'll want the whole cow. They say that right? Well in my case, give me an Oreo and I'll want a dozen strawberry donuts. The carbs and sugar have been great for crossfit but not so great for my mid section - or face - or overall feeling in general. The transition hasn't been a super easy one. My smile hasn't changed, my confidence is still there but going from so much structure to having very little tests my will power. Going from hawk eyes to friendly eyes from your watchful coach - from having a strict goal to a more lenient wish. My mindset used to be, "You can't eat that it'll mess up the look on stage" and now it's, "Well my dress will still fit if I eat that." Aka - I have very little will power when left my own devices.
So here we stand, at the corner of jump back on the wagon or get run over. I'm choosing to get back on and guess what?? I'm yanking Evan and a couple of my bridesmaids on with me! Things are less sucky when you have buddies right? Truth be told, as great of a couple as we are [insert barfing here], we aren't the greatest at holding each other accountable when it comes to food. Evan ate 2 donuts? I can total handle 2 donuts [true story]. Let's not dwell on the fact we don't have the same body types or metabolisms...
So we're calling on the accountability of others on this #journeytotheIles!
The extra the donuts are being frozen for our allowed cheats [once a week]. The extra thermos are being stock piled. And the Kroger ClickList is our new best friend - keeping us [me] from impulse buying as we meander through the aisles.
I think I'm more excited than him but like always he's smiling and pretending.
