Water works

Oh my dear goodness!  Day 2 and I am SOOO tired of visiting the restroom.  I've really focused these last 2 days on making sure I was drinking lots of water.  I feel like my body is rejecting it...but I know it's really using it to flush out all the bad.

Last night finished as good as it started.  My boys are very busy this week as we wind down one sport and pick up another.  Which had them eating a 4th meal after 2 practices.  Someday's it's hard to keep food in our house.  Unfortunately, after our camping weekend we are too well stocked on junk too.  But I'm happy to report that I didn't cave.  I didn't even have a snack after our early dinner.

So this morning I started my day with my 6 a.m. wake up walk, ab work, and stretching.  I really thought about hitting my snooze but decided against it (and so happy I did).

Eggs, bacon and bulletproof coffee for breakfast.

Carrots and celery for a mid morning snack.

Veggie Soup and leftover pork chop and brussel sprouts for lunch.

An apple for a mid afternoon snack.

Dinner tonight will be taco salad.  Of course to make it paleo I hold the chips and cheese.  My taco salad has romain lettuce, grass fed meat, green and red peppers, organic salsa, avocado, red onion, and cilantro.  I'm looking forward to dinner!

Wednesday is my LONG day at work.  So I'll be sleeping an hour later.  My goal for tomorrow is not to forget to take my vitamins!

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! Breakfast  Staff Meeting Snack  Lunch  Dinner Emeals Tuscan Pot Roast with Roasted Broccoli Emeals Tuscan Pot Roast 2 Tbsp coconut oil 1 large onion, chopped 1/2 lb carrots, chopped...

Meal Plan++Paleo Mulligatawny

Thank you to everyone that responded to my survey.  I really appreciate the feedback and look forward to sharing with you this year.  Meal planning has been our best asset to following a paleo lifestyle.  We use emeals and follow the Paleo Meal Plan.  Every week I get an email with lunch and dinner options and I make our meal plan based on the activities we have on our calendar. Wednesday's I work 13-14 hours and so you can bet that I almost always use my crock pot on those nights.  Otherwise, I try to match up the easier meals for our heavier loads on our calendar.   Here's our meal plan for this week. I write out our menu plan on this magnet that's on our fridge.  It makes it easier for me to remember to pull meat and thaw from the freezer in advance. That Jambalaya is in my Instant Pot (on slow cooker mode) as we speak. I've done a horrible job of food pictures that last couple of weeks but wanted to share this recipe with you.  I made ...

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 ...
