Day 3 5/7/14

How can I drink all this water?

Remember to count all the fluids you are consuming toward your daily ounces. Seltzer water, unsweetened tea and iced tea, almond milk, post WOD coconut water, unsweetened coconut milk, and water or seltzer with lemon or lime are all contributing toward your daily goal to stay well hydrated. All are easily accessible or can be made rather quickly at home. Having this array of options also helps to avoid getting tired of just plain water. 

How was day 3? Tell us in the comments!

  1. Day 3 was fine. Nothing special to report.
    Drank that water.
    B- pepperoni (i know mark, but i have to get rid of it), apple sauce, nuts
    L- Leftover Kabobs, Larabar
    D- More leftover Kabobs (pathetic, but Traci cooked a lot!), olives
    S- clementine, protein shake
    Did the benchmark WOD today too - posted on yesterday's C3 blog

    1. Not pathetic at all. Leftovers are the way to go. If you have more chop them and put them on a big salad to get extra greens. Or eat them instead of pepperoni...

  2. B- same smoothie, 2 hard boiled eggs, 2 ~2oz sausages (ground turkey, apple, onion and spices)
    L- same as yesterday, salad and ~3oz of mixed raw almonds/cashews
    S- ~4oz of strawberries and 2 handfuls of sunflower seeds (maybe 30ish)
    Post WOD- ~8oz coconut water w/ scoop of vanilla protein powder
    D- paleo fish cakes (flounder, onion, bell pepper, almond meal, 1 egg, spices) with asparagus
    water- check plus about 15 oz
    Day three going fine and 'going' often.

    1. Bill can you add 4 ounces of protein and just add a little of the nuts. Remember our bodies process nuts as a fat not a carb. Also, if you can add a little protein to your snack that might help.

    2. So just making sure I'm getting this right...4 more oz of protein in the afternoon and cut back on some of the nuts at lunch?

    3. Yes there is no protein on your salad or snack.

  16. I copied this over from day 2... I apparently wasn't awake and posted it to the wrong day( As I posted twice... )

    water was good today
    B 3 Pieces Bacon, 3 Fried Eggs, Apple
    L Grapefruit, Some pepper strips, leftover pork with some carrots
    D Mixed Veggies, Chicken Thighs, and a little bit of Pork that Henry didn't want to finish and I am just finishing apples and almond butter with a touch of honey


    Looking retrospectively right after lunch, I should have brought something to dip the peppers in... Oh and I probably neglect to state that I usually have 1-3 cups of coffee with coconut milk and a tsp of coconut sugar
