mgrill's Journal, 07 April 2015

Hi All!

Work is finally settling down and I'm able to get back to a routine that includes lunch hour workouts again! Woo-who! I spent too many days last month working through lunches...hopefully those days are behind me for a while now that my office is fully staffed - FINALLY!

I managed well on my days away from FS. I've got a pretty good idea of my intake even on days that I don't log food...that's another nice thing about having a well established habit for what to pack in a lunch, for snacks, etc.

First Friday of the month (April) I did my "benchmark" challenge of max. deadhang pull-ups and 100 full-burpees for time again. I sort of flatlined from the month prior...but that was to be expected as I didn't get to the gym as much as I'd have liked for the month of March. My progress is as follows:

Max Deadhang Pull-Ups: Jan - 6; Feb - 8; Mar - 7; Apr - 7
100 Burpees (for time): Jan - 11:26; Feb - 10:57; Mar - 9:48; Apr - 9:57

Considering that a year ago I could barely do one pull up...I consider these results very promising :-)

Transitioning to the new position is going OK. It's been a challenge, but I'm still doing fine.

Kids are great and are off to my parents for spring break. I'm SO not used to having it so quiet around the house!

Thanks to some of your responses to my stressful posts in the past, my husband and I have started having lunch out to eat together every other week. It is SO NICE to go out on these little "dates" with him. Nice to know that we can still get along even when the kids aren't around :-)

So as the routine settles back in, I hope to catch up with you all in the days to come.

Missed you!
