Commentary:
#1 I am finding that prep and planning and eating are all taking far longer than normal for me.  This might be because I normally eat just about anything, or because (other than eggs) I don't normally eat food that takes much prep, or maybe because I do not usually pay attention to how little time has been involved.  It just seems this will functionally be a time commitment akin to a part-time job.
I am feeling sore, tired, and in spite of the food and water I am still a little hungry after my meal.
#2 This feels like quite a lot of water
#3 yeah, water.
#4 ironically, i think i drinking more soda than i am water
#5 s'too bad that tap water doesn't taste good
#6 These meals seem small and I'm hungry - maybe my stomach is too big and/or I'm used to larger portions for no reason other than the idea that soda makes it easier to eat more food. It also might be I'm just re-learning how to gauge how much food I should eat at a meal.  I've always heard American meal portions were large - perhaps this is also a factor.
#7 still hungry going into afternoon; maybe more vegetables during meal? Also need to ensure I eat before I go to the gym for my first WOD.  I get the impression that the WOD will be hard enough; having to do it while hungry seems a poor decision.
#8 loving the almonds as a variety - and i'm thinking i may need more ... fats?
#9 ooh, olives are a fat that i can include.  awesome
#A so many of the aches + pains just melt into memory when you WOD. I can see their value. Also fun!
