Sunday, January 16

Breakfast
2 hardboiled eggs

Lunch
(nothing)

Dinner

Well, where do I begin about the event that I attended Sunday night. Melinda's gave me the ultimatum - stay 100% on track with the paleo or she'd have a margarita when she goes to Austin; Donkey delivered the warning that "remember you haven't drank in three weeks, so you better remember you'll probably get bombed. But of course, I walked in, and saw a woman hanging from the ceiling delivering champage into flutes, I of course immediately deviated off course. I mean, really, how often do you see something like that - and champage is, of course, my favorite. AND there was a strawberry in it, which is perfectly paleo under normal circumstances.

So I strutted the red carpet in my gorgeous gown, which happened to fit me even better because of the 10 lbs I have lost so far by going paleo, and turned the corner to be confronted by an entire mediterranean bar of olives, cured meats, and other Italian delicacies. I did manage to skip the gorgeously displayed bread and made myself a small plate of some proiscutto and olives and stayed on track (minus champagne #2 by this point).

Dinner was plated around 7:30 and it started with an Asian caesar salad - probably only thing non-paleo was the dressing, but I ate it anyway and enjoyed it (thanks Aimee for the advice). Dinner was a duo entree, consisting of a braised short rib and a miso glazed sea bass. I ate everything, including the chinese broccoli and...yes, the wasabi mashed potatoes (sorry, Melinda, I did it, and I know you are going to be mad).

Off to the dance floor I went with the girls, who then convinced me that we were going to do vodka shots (relax, Donkey, I only did two, and managed to stay on my feet all night). My WOD for the day definitely was the Cha Cha Slide/Electric Slide/Beyonce dancing that we did.

We hit the afterparty, which didn't end until 5am, but I still managed to wrangle up 7 hours of sleep.

It was an amazing day, I cannot wait till the pictures come back.

I don't feel at all guilty about deviating off course for a day. It was totally worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I did feel a little sick on Sunday morning, but that I am attributing to the champagne/vodka mixture that was going on in my belly. Other than that, I got back on track on Monday, and that was that.

Melinda, I know you are going to be mad, and are going to tell me I am a bad partner. Relax buddy, the WODs this week will get their revenge on me. I am sorry I am a failure in your eyes and you can ditch me as a partner if you want. But all in all, you can have that margarita and not feel bad about it since I deviated first. Hope you'll forgive me :)

Breakfast
2 eggs
avocado
tomato

Lunch
chicken soup

Dinner
(Paleo Pot Luck)


So Melinda said I am behind on my food blog. Honestly, I am too busy to even really care. I am so busy right now that I don't have time to even change my foods, so therefore - I am eating the same thing for the last three days in a row. I am hoping next week will be much calmer and I can also get to the box for more than 2 WODs in a week. I am in a bad mood, but looking forward to the pot luck tonight at Donkey's.

Thursday was also a crazy day. We are preparing for the NACE gala on Sunday, and my inbox has been packed with emails that I can't even get through. Today I worked on a layout for a 4'x8' light box, laid it all out, and then had to re-do the whole thing because it was being printed in a different format. Back and forth, back and forth. I really wanted a drink to calm the nerves, but I restrained. Around 5, I ran out to go tanning quickly for the gala and then to KOP to grab earrings for my gown. Then back on the computer till about 10, found about 5 minutes to eat dinner, and finally finshed all of the graphics to go to print around midnight.

Annie Sandwich 18:58

Well it was Monday, and I'm starting to feel better finally. Despite having some congestion, I pushed myself and went to the WOD - I am glad I did, but was disappointed with my time. Actually, my last row was the fasted split I have ever posted (2:06), but the first 50 double-unders were a nightmare. I couldn't get my groove. Anyways, I was in bed as soon as I ate (yes, Nikki and Laura, I ate dinner!) and just relaxed until I passed out around 10pm.
