Camille the newb
Thought I should start tracking here so it's easier for me to find.
At this point, I'm 3 weeks into Crossfit. I did skip Wed's WO this week bc I went with Ali to check out the dog. Tonight I swam all of a new Swimplan workout bc we got out of work early. I also shoveled the walk and driveway for one hour, so I'm skipping the WOD but I'd like to do it! lol Just measured my waist- 36". My daily plate shows these measurements on Feb 13th TAPE-L thigh-21 R thigh- 20.5 (mid thigh) Hips & butt- 40 Waist- 38.5 R bi- 12.5 L bi 11.5 Chest 38 I noticed yesterday that I have biceps under my fat! And... I shoveled for the whole hour without breaking. I only stood up to straighten my back. I can clearly remember shoveling a few sections of sidewalk, huffing and puffing and stopping to breathe. I must be getting in better shape!! ![]() L thigh- 20.5 r- 20.5 hips and butt-39.5 38.5 over t r bi- 12 l bi- 11.5 waist-36 Trying to eat more fruit and veggies. Feel pretty darn good today. My butt looks much better than it did when I started taking pics! |

Re: Camille the newb
OK, I actually rested yesterday even tho I wanted to do the WOD to see how much it would push me.
Today's wod is going to kill me! I looked at this week's pics of me and I can really see the difference in my body 3 weeks into CF!! Yay! The scale isn't really moving, but my body is really changing! If I can figure out how to post some wfs pics, I will. |

Re: Camille the newb
Tried to grease the groove for pullups this morning when I came downstairs and I slightly pulled something! Whoops
![]() I was talking to someone on the Daily Plate about my calorie intake, just to check and he said that a nutritionist told him that he should be getting 4000 a day. I'm going to up mine to about 2100. My weight's not changing, but my body REALLY changed in the past 3 wks. I'd like to try zone, but I don't even know what a block is and I REALLY don't want to have to read a book to figure out how to eat! One of the coworkers is talking about trying to get a treadmill downstairs.... heh- it's a start! Then I'll work a pullup bar in... and some kettlebells! lol Oh btw.. my beige/green dress pants are no longer stretched tight across my waist! |

Re: Camille the newb
Week 4 of CF. Resting today and next few days at 1/2 intensity.
Snowboard tonight. I upped most of my WOD's to puppy and last night I felt like I was hit with a ton of bricks. Took an aspirin and felt better, but I think it's good to rest a bit and repair. My green dress pants are still tight around my waist.. I can't believe I'm 34% bodyfat. Just starting to try to eat in the zone... I'll have to be more careful with my grocery list-I don't have some things that would make it easier... |

Re: Camille the newb
If you're really going to try the zone, the best thing I did was buy a scale. I went to the grocery store, asked for 5 oz of chicken, and they said 'whats an ounce?' I tell them its .3125 lbs, and they're still confused. So a scale is very helpful. Oh and if you still don't know what a block is, its 7g protein, 9g carb, 3g fat. Good luck!
