Day 1

Today is my first day of the Paleo lifestyle! I am a little nervous because I have started & stopped so many diets. My sweet baby Brant is 8 months old now and I have pretty much been on a "diet" since he was 7 weeks old. Look! This is the result of that:
I just went for a walk (5 & 1/2 miles!) and took this picture. I weigh 188 pounds. It hurt my fingers to type that number. You may not be able to tell but my pants are pulled up OVER my belly button to try to hold in my tummy. That is enough to make me sad! But, I am tired of complaining and feeling sad & uncomfortable with the way I look & feel. Today is a new day and I am really excited to start Paleo. Lets see how it changes my life!

I found a book called Everyday Paleo by Sarah Fragoso. Just like the title suggests, she breaks down the Paleo lifestyle into an everyday way of thinking & eating. A lot of what I will eat are her ideas. This is what I will eat today:

Breakfast: 2 egg cupcakes & blueberries
Lunch: chicken salad & roasted asparagus
Snack: turkey slices & 1/2 an avacado
Dinner: spice rub slow cooked chicken & kids love cabbage slaw
