32 Days until we've been Paleo/Crossfit for 1 year...

Tomorrow morning is our big segment on WishTV Channel 8 out of Indianapolis.  Mr. and I are both excited to see how they pulled everything together.  Because I wrote a special post for viewers checking us out from Channel 8 I won't be blogging until Saturday or Sunday.  I will however be sharing on Facebook so make sure to like Food is a Drug #Paleo.

Meal Plan Monday



Today was a busy meal planning/shopping day.  I also made some home made Paleo Mayo as we had pork burgers tonight and I am planning on having those bacon stuffed burgers on the 4th.  If you 've never made your own mayo, I highly recommend it.  Look online for a recipe.  The homemade version tastes so much better and has no additives etc!  The recipe I use has egg, lemon juice, dry mustard, garlic salt, and light olive oil.

Dinner was odds and ends that I was able to pull together to make delicious.  I forgot to thaw my roast last night to throw in the crock pot this morning so I had to come up with my game plan for tonight.  It turned out so delicious and everyone left the table full and satisfied!
That's a pork burger with hot sauce and homemade mayo, homegrown cucumber slices, bell pepper, sweet potato fries, and broccoli bok choy saute.  

Tomorrow I'm headed back to the Box.  I feel as nervous as I did on my first day but this time I know that I've fueled my body and I'm ready for what's coming at me.  Food is a Drug #Paleo!

10 Things Couples Starting their Paleo Journey Should Know!

Mr. and I started our Paleo Journey pretty much together.  I can't say that it was a smooth beginning.  We definitely have learned a lot through the process and continue to do so.  Here's a quick list of 10 things you should know when starting the Paleo Journey as a Couple!   1. Support from your partner! Support from your partner is key to your journey.  It's been one of the best things we've done as far as our relationship is concerned.  We've literally lost a person (130 lbs) in 6 months.  It's not all been pretty but we are a stronger TEAM because we've been on the journey together! 2.  There's No 'I' in Team! Teamwork makes the dream work!  I couldn't have done this without Mr. rolling up his sleeves and pitching in.  We both like to be in the kitchen but neither of us is fond of the clean up afterwards.  We do teamwork with cooking when we are both home.  This way it doesn't fall on one persons sh...

THE SYMBOL OF A RING

When I started my journey I had something I wanted to accomplish that I probably didn't tell anyone.  I have shared it with a few people after the fact.  In my weight gain and all the things I couldn't do, wear, or accomplish one thing bothered me more than anything.  I couldn't get my wedding ring on my finger. I've always had large hands.  My fingers are puffy and it had been years since I had gotten to wear my wedding ring.  Many mornings it would leave a pit in my stomach and I can't tell you how many times I would try hoping that some of the water weight had made my fingers small enough to slip it on. Our anniversary is in September and a year and half ago I had contemplated having it resized so I could wear it again.  I didn't have a real goal or the gumption to loose weight.  In the end, I was too embarrassed to walk into the jewelry store and admit defeat.  When we began our journey this past August the first thing I started to do ...

Stepping Out In Support of Paleo

My goal is for this Blog to help someone make the switch to Paleo and ultimately live a happier and healthier life.  I am stepping out in support of the Paleo lifestyle because it has changed my life and my husbands life for the better.   Please know that I am not a writer.  My "style" if you will, of writing is more conversational than gramatical and I am o.k. with that.  I hope you can be too because I think I have a lot of great experience from learning how to actually live the Paleo lifestyle to share! For now, however, I'd like to share with you my dinner from last night.  I've just returned from an extended trip and my Mr. has been taking care of grocery shopping and meal planning and does it much differently than me but I fused our efforts and made Maple Mustard Chicken Thighs with Cabbage Apple, Bacon, and Walnut Side Dish.  This recipe was taken in part from www.emeals.com  and changed to what we had on hand.   EMeals  is my go...
