Has it only been 1 week?

I am here in Afghaniland.  I cleaned up my act upon landing at my base.  I have been eating meats, veggies, and fruit...until today when I found some nuts stashed away and I ate them like a street kid that hasn't seen food for weeks.  I also was not sure who owned them.  Anyway, I am getting sick and trying to fight that currently but I have been getting my workout on the last few days.  I didn't eat any meat on Sunday ( I feel like the meat is super salty here and I want 1 day a week to let my body have a break).  Working out has been an eye opener here...I am in a seriously sucky state.  My achillies has been bothering me for a while now and today it was swollen so I broke and took some IB pro.  The main gym has carpet floors and you have to change shoes upon entering the gym, which is funny because its just as dusty inside as out...oh and the gym is a huge tent.

3/2
3 AM-- BS 1 RM (for the day) 185#
             4x6 @ 130#
             Press 1 RM (for day) 95#

4 PM-- Went to the CF gym, but no one was there so I did my own thing
7 Pull ups
7 Squats
7 Tire Flips
7 Burpees
7 Hip X
-7 Rounds

I was so wrecked on both of these workouts...I fatigue so easily it seems.  Sore for daysss...recovery seems impossible.

3/3
400m repeats on treadmill for 30min

Rough initially, but felt better by the end.

3/4
FS 5x5 @ 125#
Deadlift 3 at 185#, 2 at 185#, 3 at 175#
Box Jumps (24")
3x5

I was struggling on every single lift today and it was super busy in the gym.  I constantly had people trying to steal my bar so I think from now on I will lift right after work.

That is were I am at currently trying to get a rythm in my life.  I miss my family and friends already I can only imagine what it will be like for the next six months.  I am going to give CF another go tomorrow see if they actually have class.  My schedule was changed so I work later...not sure how I feel about that.
