2 Day's before the "Official" Challenge...

I'd say that I have been practicing the paleo diet this week. My down fall is after lunch and dinner. Before Thanksgiving I was perfectly happy with just a little bit of chocolate or sweetness once and a while, then that once and a while became everyday, then that everyday just about became after lunch I'd have a piece of chocolate and after dinner I'd have a piece of chocolate and when co-workers asked if I wanted a piece of cake, "sure" I'd say. WHAT?! Where did this person come from again? I've started the cycle again...the one that got me to 206 pounds (minus the just sitting on the couch), oh I'm still doing my workouts and training, just not seeing results...well DUH! SO, as much as it pains me to say goodbye to bread, grains, pasta, carbs, starch, sugars (candy), processed (A.K.A simple foods), dairy, and cereal; I'll probably love the results and how I feel (so I've been told). I'm looking forward to seeing a leaner more toned me. But it wont work unless I DO IT. I can do this. This might teach me how to cook better, my taste buds might change so I'll taste 'real' food and get all of it's health benefits. I have a lot of support and lots of resources to go to. Another down fall might be that buying REALLY healthy foods all the time could get expensive, I guess we'll see. Who knows it could save me money in the long run (after I buy all the spices). So this week I've been practicing, and my downfall is at night, after dinner, when I want something sweet (a.k.a chocolate). TEA! I'll try hot tea, that will be my dessert! I've been struggling with my weight my entire life, there is no time to fall apart, not now and not later. Here is to a new way of eating, you eat to live, not live to eat. That's hard for some people :-(


Goodnight.
