The Foodinator: Back on the horse
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2013/04/back-on-horse.html
Wednesday, 3 April 2013. Back on the horse. So, lately I've been really unmotivated. really really really unmotivated, both in exercising and eating well. I think it's been mainlydue to work being crazy and being back at uni, and exercise and eating well were just the first things to fall by the wayside. For an example of just how slack I've been, this morning was the first time in the last 4 weeks that I've gone to Crossfit! Every minute on the minute for 10 minutes, do 3 power snatches. 21 - 15 - 9.

The Foodinator: Crossfit Tuesday, new goals and other random stuff
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2013/01/crossfit-tuesday-new-goals-and-other.html
Tuesday, 22 January 2013. Crossfit Tuesday, new goals and other random stuff. I've made some goals for myself this week, my first goal is to get back into my regular Crossfit routine, even if that involves 6:30am tram rides! So the gym owner randomly told me today that he wants me to stop using bands for chin-ups this year, so much for my goal of going down one band this year! This is totally going to be me by the end of the year! 7 x hang power-snatch. 30 x kettlebell swings (16kg). 5 x 5 push-press.

The Foodinator: April 2013
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 27 April 2013. Crossfit and chia pudding. Overhead squats (training bar and 5kg - so approx 12kg). 10 mins 36 seconds. 10 front squats (15kg? 10 toes to bar. 4 or 5 rounds I think 4. 1km row (800m run for everyoe else). I managed to get halfway up the rope about twice, woot! I think I'm bit too heavy to hold my own body weight by my arms while I try and re-position my feet, but I'm definitely 'getting it' more than I was before. Every 90 seconds - 1 x power snatch. 1 x full snatch. The texture ...

The Foodinator: September 2014
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 30 September 2014. I survived the Uni field trip! It was a LOT of work, basically from 8:30 in the morning until 9pm at night with specific activities/lectures/field work and then, because we had to write a 2000 word essay by the end of the 5 days, working on that during the evening, until 2:30 or so one of the nights. I really didn't get much sleep and am exhausted this week as a result. I am going to have to drag out the stats text book I think, or just look up "Stats for Dummies". I'm going t...

The Foodinator: December 2014
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, 11 December 2014. Reducing my waste footprint. I've been meaning to write this post for months but haven't gotten around to it, but this. Article in The Age today about the plastic count in the ocean has reminded me to get on to it. It estimates there is 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic floating on the ocean's surface. That doesn't include plastics further down in the water column, on the bottom of the ocean floor, or washed up on beaches. But one afternoon when I was supposed to be studying I g...

The Foodinator: Getting my mojo back
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2013/07/getting-my-mojo-back.html
Monday, 1 July 2013. Getting my mojo back. So according to my blog, I haven't posted since 27 April, that's ages! I had this whole woe is me post written on Friday, but fuck it, the only person who can change my situation is me, no one is going to swoop in and do it for me, no matter how much I might want that to be the case. I don't imagine this will be a short process but it will be worthwhile. Getting a new job will be a reward in itself, so no rewards for job hunting. So that's about it, nothing craz...

The Foodinator: July 2013
http://thefoodinator.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 9 July 2013. In order to keep myself honest with getting my eating etc. back on track I am going to post weekly updates, this is the first. I really strive to earn the stickers and today I went out for dinner with a friend and was really vigilant with my eating, mostly because I wanted to get the damn food sticker! Stars = Workouts, round stickers = perfect eating/drinking. I weighed myself last night and was down 600g but those scales are rubbish, so I don't really believe it! Getting a new job...

The Foodinator: February 2013

Wednesday, 27 February 2013. Crossfit, Fitbit stats and random updates. I have been riding my bike to Crossfit and then riding to the station to go to work on the train, but it's a major pain in the ass. I'm rubbish at riding and after Crossfit it is particularly difficult! 400m row (run for the others). 5 x 8rep max deadlift (50kg). 5 x max dead hang chin ups (red and yellow band - 6, 5, 4, 4). 50, 40, 30, 20 10. 17mins 54 seconds (150 of each). 9 x chin-ups (Red band). 60 toes to bar. So, 5 rope climbs...
