56 Days to go! AND seeing a difference on the scales!

The scale is moving!  It feels good on one hand but on the other hand I am worried that I am losing my muscle mass because I am not doing Crossfit.  Mentally it's great knowing that the changes I am doing are making a difference.

We've had another great day here!  The weather is beautiful and I love being able to have my windows up and allow the fresh air to flow through the house.  After morning errands and shopping, the boys and I spent our afternoon doing this....
We love our neighborhood pool!

BREAKFAST

LUNCH
I took full advantage today that I was at the butchers and at home for lunch.  I grilled a season pork chop and had zuchini, peppers, and red onion with it!  Mighty tasty!

SNACK
Cucumbers, celery and almond butter, blueberries!

DINNER
Hamburgers Wraps (w/paleo mayo, grilled onion, tomato, and avocado) Sweet potato wedges and grilled asparagus.  Super yummy dinner that we threw together after the boys ball game.

I didn't get to run today.  This morning I was a bit stiff from yesterdays run and this evening was jam packed...but I do plan on running in the morning before breakfast.  

Feeling good though because 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...
