I make no sense ... and a big announcement!

Today was CAKE day at work. I shit you not. That's what it was called- CAKE DAY! And there wasn't just one, but TWO cakes! And oh boy, did they ever look so delicious. I knew the whole office would be called in to partake in the cake festivities at 3:00 so I planned to eat my HEALTHY snack at that time so I wouldn't be tempted.
I had 4 people put come into my office and put the slice of cake UNDER MY NOSE! Yes, I'm writing with a lot of caps, but I need to make sure you understand the seriousness of this situation! Cake, in my face, under my nose, with a person begging me to take it.
And I said No!
OH YEAH BABY! I did not partake in the cake festivities.
After eating like utter poo-poo on Saturday, I knew my body would be craving sweets and sugar today. Idid awesome fighting the cravings with my prepackaged snacks and lunch.
I came home from work and was productive right away. I swept the floor, did the dishes, moved the laundry over, and cut up a fresh pineapple. We decided not to workout tonight, but we'll make it up by doing 4 days in a row.
And then, I went and got ICE CREAM from Sonic. You didn't see that coming did you? It's okay, I don't make any sense. I ordered a chocolate and banana milkshake and it was AW-wait for it- SOME!
Soooo...now that I have that confession out of the way, onto the cool part-
Michael and I will be heading to Laguna Hills, CA next month to become CrossFit Level I certified! Woot! I'm so excited and completely terrified at the same time. This is THE FIRST step toward a much larger vision that we both have for our future. It's crazy! CrossFit has a certain way of doing all of its movements and it's all for a purpose. Because Michael and I do the workouts on our own, we learn all of these movements from watching videos on the website. Obviously, that's not exactly the best way so I'm sure it'll be a huge learning experience for both of us.
Until tomorrow,

Wo0t! on saying no to cake and registering for Crossfit. I think "cheating" is okay, as long as you make the decision to do it - and it's not without thought - like eating cake would have been. I wish our culture could figure out a way to celebrate things without food. It's really frustrating to anyone who is trying be mindful of their food. Ugh! Way to go!
Oh man that is exciting... You're gonna kick some Cross Fit ass.
I hope you enjoyed your shake because if you're going to cheat, then at least enjoy it.
Way to say "NO" to the cake. Why is it that people feel the desire to shove that stuff in your face and practically beg you to eat some?! Does it make them feel less guilty when others are eating it as well? Geez.
Congrats on Crossfit! That's super exciting!
You guys are going to have such a great time at your cert, I'm so excited for you. :) Honestly one of my favorite parts of attending was just having a reason to sit down and study the manual they provide. So many different pieces of knowledge "clicked" for me when I was reading, and when I was at the cert listening to the lecture portions. And being coached on all the basic movements was awesome as well. Woot! :)
