Paleo Ground Beef Mushroom Meatball Soup

It's Day 10 on my way to detoxing my way to paleo. Aside from craving chips and a head ache that keeps popping up, I feel I am doing well on nutrition. Last night for supper I made an emeals dinner that was really good. I always love finding recipes that are worth cooking and sharing. My modifications where minor. I did add a bit more seasoning to the soup. A little garlic salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning was all it took to give the broth the flavor I was hoping to achieve. I didn't make the zucchini last night as directed either. Mr. was out of town and I don't really enjoy raw zucchini so I roasted ours in the oven with avocado oil. The sweet potato was leftover and so I heated it up as the zucchini was cooking. The soup though will be a keeper at the Smith house. Here's the recipe: Emeals Paleo Ground Beef Mushroom Meatball Soup

As I've said before Wednesday's are my looong work day and late night so I keep my plans simple. The boys had FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) this morning. They started bright and early at 7:30 a.m at Hardee's. Luckily I was able to pack my bacon and eggs and my bulletproof coffee held me over until I got to work.

I didn't pack a snack today but when I was out shopping for our snack for tonight's meeting I picked up a banana. An interesting thing crossed my mind. Whenever I used to buy a candy bar or a pop, the cashier generally always asked me if I wanted it left out when bagging. Today when I purchased my banana (only 1) the question was not asked. Interesting.

Lunch is leftover meatball soup

Afternoon snack is grapes and carrots.

Dinner is grilled chicken thighs and roasted broccoli.

Late snack is a piece of pork chop and celery.

I'm happy to say that I've only missed one day (Saturday) of taking vitamins. However, I've not gotten my morning walks in and I'm missing it. Hoping to get a good walk in on Friday morning.

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...

58 Days to go....I am strong! +Emeals Recipe Share

58 days to go until I've been Paleo Crossfit for 1 year! I feel strong today...with will power that is. I feel no need to have my Paleo cheats. Maybe I've done a quick detox of yummy chocolate or maybe I'm too stressed to think about it. I'd love to report back that last nights run melted all my anxiety...but it didn't. I did take the time to really count my blessings and thank God for all that he has given me and our family. It's hard to understand why and how things happen sometimes but standing on Faith is important and that is what I choose to do. So when I woke up this morning I was determined to stick with the plan that I outlined a couple of days ago...and that's just was I did! That's why I feel strong!

20 Days into Paleo Challenge

This sort of feels like a picture overload dump but I've been busy the last 20 days. I joined Civilized Caveman's 30 Days to a Better You Challenge. It's just the motivation I needed to start this new journey. I've really struggled staying on Paleo. Lots of outside factors impacted that. But my bodies constant yearn to feel strong and healthy again never went away. I'm grateful to my family and husband and great Integrative Medicine doctor who have been gently pushing me back to the right path. I've spend that last 20 days trying intermittent fasting on for size and it's been really great. I think it feels much different than how I was used to coach others in regards to eating. Where before I spent a lot of time planning 3 meals and 3 snacks I now eat 2 or 3 times a day and only sometimes snack. I'm a morning workout girl so breakfast always came early to me. It's been an adjustment waiting until 10 a.m or after to begin ...
