Whenever it's time to eat do you ever say to yourself, "What do I want to eat?".  Sure we all do, the most important part after that is what we choose to eat.  Do we make a decision off of our "day"?  Is it a busy day or a "non-busy" day.  Do we make our decisions whether our day is "busy" or "non-busy"?  I'm pretty sure we will all say "yes" to that.  Why don't we make good decisions no matter what kind of day we are having?

We started our 1st "Leaning Challenge" on December 15th and ended February 1st.  Throughout this whole competition we all kept a food log and we had a forum for everyone to post recipes, daily intake, or simply put down there thoughts for the day.  The 3 winners from our 1st "Leaning Challenge" were very dedicated at doing exactly that.  There were days that were easy and other days that it was a struggle to eat so healthy. 

Adam, Katie and Terry are currrent regular attending members of StoneWay CrossFit who work very hard everytime they show up for the daily WOD.  Adam started training with Corey Mcgee in November 2009 and quickly adopted CrossFit as his workout of choice.  He registered for the CrossFit Journal shortly after starting his training with Corey.  It was there that he started watching past CrossFit games video's and reading their helpful articles.  Katie has been trainining with Corey since August 2009.  She has devoloped so much since the late summer of 2009.  Katie can currently perform 13 pull-ups in a row right now.  She workouts out at StoneWay CrossFit and Mercer Island CrossFit.  Terry has been training with me (Scott Rodriguez) for over 2 years now and has develop so much.  When we started she was only walking.  She currently has lost 57lbs since January 2008 and now runs, jumps, row, olympics lifts, does pull-ups, swings kettlebells and so much more.  She is also currently registered for the Lake Steven Half Ironman in August.  Terry has always logged her food since we started but it was the Paleo/Zone combination that helped her lean down so much more.

Congratulations Adam, Katie and Terry!
