Huge Mile-stone!!

I did my timed mile at boot camp today as this is the last week of the 4-week camp! 

Four weeks ago I hit 15:58 which was HUGE because that was 4 minutes off my best time ever!

Today I clocked in at 14:44! That's over a minute off of my time in just four weeks!! That also brought me under 15 minutes which has been a milestone goal for me for the last 3 years!

I'm stoked! 

I also had to do a bunch of kettle swings today and this time four weeks ago I could get 5 swings in a row if I tried really hard at that felt like it was going to kill me. Today I did a set of 35 in a row!!

I feel so much stronger than I did at the beginning of the boot camp and it's SO reassuring to see measurable proof!

I went over my calorie goal by 68 calories today but I'm okay with that and think that's even pretty good seeing as I was so hungry.

Mmm...Food

So I hit my calorie range of 1200-1400 calories a day and ate some yummy eats in the process. :)

Starting today I'm also attempting to go Gluten Free/Wheat Free for a week to see if that helps at all. I've never tested positive for Celiac disease but apparently the test can often test as a false negative. So I was told to try the diet and see what happens!

Unfortuately it's REALLY difficult to find things that are not only dairy-free, soy-free, egg-free, bean-free, carageenan-free (which I always have to do) and are go gluten free on top of that!
But I accomplished my first day of it! Yay! (Let's see how long it lasts!!)

I attempted to make Macaroni and Chreeze for dinner which is a brown rice pasta with a sauce that mimics cheese but is gluten-free, soy-free and dairy-free. What is it? Something called nutritional yeast.

Umm...YUCK. 

Let's just say I saved the noodles and tossed the Chreeze! Hey, try everything once right? (Or if you're forgetful like me, try everything 9 times and hopefully you'll remember before the 10th time that something really doesn't taste good!! Haha!)
