On Nutrition...

Look, I'm just going to throw it out there.. I ate 4 (FOUR) Mrs. Baird's Fried Cherry Pies last weekend, a hamburger, breakfast burritos, some chocolate doughnuts, 5-6 cokes.. I think I can go on and on.. I went freaking crazy... AND it was AWESOME!

Until I had to workout on Monday.. Oh man.. 7 rounds of 75# Shoulder Presses x 21 reps and 21 back extensions.. Embrace the suck you say.. How about embrace the chuck as I was super close to tossing my cookies so to speak.. Ya, its all fun and games until someone throws up..

Everything comes at a price I guess.. It had been months and months since I had a coke and even longer since I had a fried pie. I try to eat as clean as I can throughout the week and when I go off on a binge it jacks me up for days. More importantly it hurts my performance.

Its Thursday and I'm just now feeling like my body is getting back in shape from that "criminal episode" I pulled off over the weekend. I've heard a few CFers say they crossfit as hard as they do so that they can eat.. I guess I'm not there.. I CrossFit because I have such a long way to go to be as fit as I'd like.. Eating junk in that quantity sets me back..

Now, this would be a good time to talk about moderation.. But, I know nothing of the topic so your on your own.. Its obvious I have no self control.. :)

I took this photo of Eva T chowing on a doughnut at the CF Science of Exercise cert.. I didn't take it with the thought of catching her eating junk but it does go to show you even Olympic level athletes can enjoy cop food.

I will say that Zoning/Paleo rock..Hard to live there for weeks at a time but nutrition does make a huge difference in everything so I stick with it as much as I can.

Everyone eats bad sometimes and you might as well do it and move on down the road..Get it out of your system..
