So since the paleo challenge ended i have been finding it harder to stay on track. Our wedding is about a month away and i really need to get it together…so i figured that if I start a food log i'll be a little bit more accountable with my diet. I'm trying to follow a paleo lifestyle as much as possible but will be a little more lenient than I was during the challenge. I will be including some dairy and things like vinegar or small amounts of soy sauce or other seasoning will be allowed in moderation as will alcohol. ( I do have my stagette to go to :) So the plan is to record my diet for a month and see how it goes. If anyone has comment or ideas feel free to reply.

I finally managed to pack a breakfast and lunch for tomorrow, so hopefully i can get away from all of the eating out I've been doing lately. I find one of my biggest challenges is that some days I eat all my meals away from home, and finding the time to buy groceries and prepare food isn't always there. Usually its a toss up between getting extra sleep or making meals. Luckily I have some healthy options at work so that helps, but i actually like cooking, so if i keep my life more organized so that i have the time to cook, things seems to run a bit more smoothly.
So I think that one of my goals for next week will be to make more of my meals at home.

Didn't really ear supper cause i was watching the Olympics, and then I wasn't really hungry enough to eat a real meal so I grazed…
dried cranberries
pecans
beef jerky
grapefruit
So i haven't really succeeded in eating at home more there were too many things on the go this week, and i really enjoy eating out so It's hard to say no
ditto on decreasing my fruit intake although there isn't much left for fruit in the the house so if i buy more veggies than fruit next time i get groceries that will help I'm not going to beat myself up over fruit though…there are much worse things that i could be eating….
but then again if our olympic athletes can eat at McDonalds and stay in such great shape your average crossfitter can too right…right????
