weekly workout and some food stuff

Well, it's been two weeks and I'm still sore! But, you know what? I am already feeling results! I feel more confident in the workouts...I know I can get through them, no matter how tough they are. I feel stronger. I know it's only been 2 weeks, but I am excited that I am no longer feeling like dying at the end of the workout! I'm still spent after them, but now I can recover.

On Tuesday, Cody and I went to Crossfit and did a very weight-lifting intense workout, which is new for me. But it's fun trying to new aspects of working out! After the workout, Kristian (one of our trainers) told us we are improving on our form and stamina. We also talked alittle about diet. A diet that Kristian, and a lot of other people who do crossfit do is the zone diet (click there for the link to that diet). My plan is do an adapted version of that...following it without getting too crazy about following it word for word. I am trying to make sure I get plenty of veggies, fruits, and protein, as well as the GOOD carbs and fats.
Kristian reminded us of the importance of healthy eating when you are working out. It doesn't make any sense to work out so hard, and then throw it all away by eating terribly. A great rule of thumb? Portion control -especially your protein- should be the size of your fist. I am still writing down everything I eat, which works for me, because I am more aware of what I am eating. For me, that's the big thing. I feel better about myself when I know I am putting good stuff in my body. Doesn't mean I don't have the occasional treat! (My current favorite treat? A mini rootbeer float with low fat vanilla icecream!) One of my favorite easy (and cheap!) meals is baked tilapia seasoned with olive oil and lemon, with a salad and a size of veggies. Quick, easy, yummy, and filling. But I am always looking for new ideas. SO let me know how your workouts are going, if you have any questions, and even just some comments about what does and doesn't work for you! Trust me, things get alt easier if your not going at it all alone! :) Good luck! :)
