100 burpees with Rachel NOT for time

Food was a little off because I was still with the family in south Florida. It's difficult accessing good food when all my parents have is bread, cereal, candy, alcohol, popcorn, etc. Don't get me wrong, there were some good choices, but they were slim. Also, I cut the auxiliary work to 3 sets because I didn't want to be away from Rachel or the girls for very long at all. I woke up really early to hit the bike at a local gym (luckily they had an assault bike).

I didn't really do anything this day nor did I eat very well and I will attribute it all to sadness. The morning of this day I say "goodbye" to my daughters and to Rachel. I fucking hated this. To me, this is the worst feeling knowing that Evelyn is going to be looking for me and I will be nowhere to be found (this did end up happening). It's absolutely heartbreaking. Part of me felt like I was abandoning my family, but Rachel does a good job of reassuring to me that what I'm doing is better for our family's future. Anyway, this is my hypothesis as to why I did not train nor eat well this day.

This day was a little better from the food standpoint. I'm still struggling to find the foods that will really elevate the fat content of the daily intake. Carbs are in everything, man. So frustrating. But, from a positive light, I'm really learning what's truly in each portion of food and I'm not needing to rely on supplements...yet haha. I still need to purchase MCT oil.
