Hello blog… it’s been some time.
With the holidays finally over with, its time to get back to a normal routine. I’m an not making a New Years resolution, but rather just getting back to what I know I should be doing. No more pumpkin spice lattes, peppermint mochas, or late night pizzas. Its back to the gym and back to eating clean.
And to help kickstart the whole process, I’ve opted to join into the Fuel Challenge at NorCal CrossFit… http://norcalcrossfit-fuel.blogspot.com/2012/12/norcal-crossfit-fuel-challenge-as-we.html
This is Paleo/Primal challenge with various levels of strictness.
- Eliminate all refined and added sugar
- Eliminate Grains/Gluten and Soy (includes corn & beer)
- Eliminate Legumes, Beans and Lentils
- Eat full fat dairy only
- Cook with animal fats/coconut oil
- Eliminate starches (white potatoes, rice,)
- Eliminate all dairy (heavy cream, butter)
- Eliminate all alcohol
- Limit fruit to 2 pieces a day
- Eliminate nuts and added salt
I’m committing to level 7, that way I can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner ;-) I should be posting more frequently again, as I get into the challenge, start cooking again, and get back to the gym.
