Meanwhile, in PCPland...

A week 2 wrap-up:

MONDAY
Makes final batch of cookies for next 3 months.

Don't worry, I only ate half of that. Rules are rules.

TUESDAY
Thinks she's either going to be totally buff or totally overweight by the end of PCP...now that the portions are GIGANTIC.

WEDNESDAY
Already hungry between meals. Sort of freaks out about merging PCP and normal life.
Also, contracts food poisoning and spends entire night on bathroom floor wondering whether her body is trying to tell her something about her recent decision to become a total bad ass.

THURSDAY
Falls off the wagon during recovery—eats some granola, a few pieces of dark chocolate-covered ginger, and...gasp...beans. No fish.
Celebrates beau's astounding 8th place finish in first ever North American Capoeira Music Festival with original song written in Portuguese!

FRIDAY
Watches this video and laughs...

SATURDAY
Catches up on exercises missed after Thursday boycott.
Graduates a cord level at the 5th Annual Capoeira Brooklyn Batizado.

(with beau)

SUNDAY
Finally realizes that PCP cooking is no different from regular cooking except with less salt and oil. Begins to adapt favorite recipes and manages to eat dinner, make tomorrow's breakfast and lunch, bake delicious apple snack, freeze some veg, and prepare extra grains—all before 10:30 pm.

  1. What a week, eh? Congrats on your Capoeria achievement! Finally checked that out on YouTube -- whoa. You may already be a bad ass, Emily!

  2. Haha, thanks! I have the attitude...it's just the skill level that needs to catch up. But, thankfully, no rush!

  4. It's really not impressive at all. :-) Video from our event on Saturday might surface, though. If so, I will post!
