set 2 - 153

mentally challenging for me today, felt like my 30 secs of light spin were sooo slow was able to increase watt avg on last set by really focusing on using arms, didn't record kals
In bed 8 hours but restless and did not sleep sound. I think due to recently had some afternoon coffee creeping in that my body does not like or need. 7AM coffee with cream & local honey, post wod protein shake. Lunch at Earthfare, big salad with steamed cabbage and beef stew and 1 small samosa, coffee. 
Afternoon snack, handful of cashews, yogurt with walnuts, seed cracker. Paleo dinner group at Sharon's - menu was lasagna (with eggplant instead of pasta noodles), brocolli salad, cucumber salad, pumpkin pie and chocolate balls. This stuff is not 100% paleo but it was fun to get together and cook.
