Good morning! Woke up a few minutes late this morning. I was a bit behind in getting the gears in motion. Made it to the gym and grinded out a SealFit WOD below.
Baseline: Bar Bell Complex 75 - 105# w/ burpee chaser
Work Capacity: 10 Rounds for time:
* 10 x Dead Lift (225#)
* 15 x CrossFit Push-ups
* 20 x Double Unders
Durability: Run 3 miles at moderate pace. Active Stretch.
The bar bell complex is 6 reps of each of the following moves: dead lift, bent over row, hang power clean, front squat, push press, back squat and burpees. I did 45LBS and that sucked :)
For work capacity: it says 10 rounds but I ended up only completing 6 rounds and i wasn't able to do my 3 mile run. I ran out of time this morning. I did 65LBs for my dead lifts since 225LBS is a bit out of reach for me!
I had a protein shake this morning and oatmeal with bananas. I am feeling good. I set my watch to beep every 3 hours so I can eat something small. Last week all my hard work ended me eating more, I was hungry all day long. At least I've gotten better with the types of foods I put in my mouth. I'm stocked on water and fruits and protein. I'm set and its Monday morning. Its gonna be awesome!
The weather is still freezing here. Its supposed to snow another 12 inches this Tuesday night! I'm not sure where all that snow is going because the other 2 feet of snow outside is still there frozen and stuck to everything!
Hope everyone has a great week!

The Snow is coming!
Another awesome morning! Got up early hit the gym and did a SealFit WOD. I am still sore from yesterday's workout but its all worth it! I ate a great breakfast as well, oatmeal, eggs and a banana.
The plus side is, I'm hitting the gym and talking with the iron. The negative side, I'm ALWAYS HUNGRY!!! Normally I am not as hungry between meal times, but now all I can think about is eating! Hmmm, I really don't think this was part of the plan on loosing weight. :(
We are anticipating another snow storm, its anticipated that the snow will hit us late tonight and will continue through Friday into Saturday. The weather station is saying 7 to 10 inches however, we still have 12 inches of frozen snow everywhere except the roads! Hmmm, I feel that coming to work tomorrow will be an adventure and a pain in the butt!
Oh, another good thing, I had a cycle trainer from last year that I pulled out of the closet and we purchased another trainer last night for my husband. So now every night we are going to cycle on our trainers for an hour while watching our favorite shows (NCIS, Bones, Burn Notice, etc). The bikes are set on the trainers and they are ready to go! OH yeah!
I'm glad that is Thursday because I can't wait for SAT! I'm not sure what I'm doing SAT but I just can't wait for SAT!
I hope you all are having a great day!

SealFit!
Today was day 1 of the new year for me. I missed Monday and Tuesday morning due to a migraine that never wanted to leave. So FINALLY it left and i woke up and hit the gym with my husband. My workout sucked! I was smoked before I hit the halfway point! I ran out of time too, I have to get in and leave in order to make up my hair and face in time to be on time at work. Trying to get into a required uniform look is tedious!
I feel great, had breakfast already and now I'm figuring out how the rest of the week is going to shape up. The forecast calls for snow this FRI AND SAT!!! Yikes and yucky! The idea of snow seems really cool but now that I see only yucky dirty snow everywhere I can honestly say, I MISS TEXAS!
I hope everyone's new years is kicking of great! I'm pumped for the new year since it brings new people at work too include a new boss! Hopefully she will be cool with me leaving at lunch to get a swim in. We usually do working lunches around here.
Work is going well, I have two major projects lined up for the next couple of weeks. Hopefully if everything goes well my products will be on espn.com and goarmy.com later in the year!
This weekend is the weekend to bring the XMAS lights down and put away all the glittery ornaments on the tree. I hate putting them away, it feels like the spirit of XMAS gets wrapped up and stored.
Its still freezing around these parts and I'm wishing for warmer days.
BTW, Army won their bowl game against SMU in Dallas last week. YEAH our first bowl game since dirt was considered dirt, ok not really but its been over 14 years since our last bowl so it was awesome to win this one! GO ARMY! BEAT NAVY!

Happy New Year!
So I post my blogs both on this site and with bodybuilding; however their site is down.
I wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope that you all have a blessed year and that all your goals in life are met!
For me this year, I plan on getting real serious with my training. I decided to SealFit this year since I found out last year that running only doesn't work for me. I have already started with making healthier meals so the next step is to cut out even more fat.
This past XMAS holiday, my sister and her husband visited me from Fort Benning, GA. It was really great to have family over. We spent 2 weeks just hanging out at West Point and NYC. We saw Wintuk at Madison Square Garden as well as Lion King on Broadway! It was amazing to see such great performers!
I also took them around NYC and showed them the landmark spots, too include ground zero. It was so emotional for me to be there. I took a look around and saw how life, and people have bounced back since September 11, 2001. I am amazed and happy that the American people have such depth and determination. It was also emotional to try to imagine the horror of that day. I can only say that I truly love being a part of something bigger than myself.
Today is the first day of work since the XMAS holiday period. I can honestly say that its a bit tough being back in the office. I can't wait for the day to end already and its only begun!
This weekend will a short one, the cadets at West Point have class on Saturday so my husband will be working. I on the other hand will be cleaning the house, I will be putting away the XMAS decorations too include the tree. I have to say its going to be sad to put away the lights and the spirit of the holidays.
I hope everyone's week has started well.
