Pukie #1: Very first day of crossfit. Elements 1 made me vomit. After I threw up I had to jump on the rower and do 1000m.
Pukie #2: Running Filthy Fifty: this was just disgusting. Got done and puked my brains out.
Pukie #3: Hammer. Dry heaved during round 4. Got back in it and finished the 4th and 5th rounds.
In some crossfit circles a pukie is a badge of honor and shows you brought yourself to your maximum. I think it is one badge that I'd like to not have. Regardless, it is good to know that I gave it everything I had and I know I could not give it any more. Although, I think that today the reason I was puking was cause of Dehydration.
I should note here that although a lot of cross fitters will be impressed by your pukie, we all know it's not good to do it regularly. If it happens a lot, there is an underlying cause and you need to find out what it is. Whether sickness, dehydration, or something I don't know about.

Diet
IT was good for the most part. Had a bbq to go too and had a few beers and some great food. Otherwise, I was good with eggs, fruit, and nuts.
I agree with you about it not being a badge to be proud of...does it really mean you pushed yourself to the max or is it because your body is telling you something is wrong (other then being tired ;) I can say I've never thrown up from a workout...and I'd like to keep it that way and still kick ass!
