Glad I'm Back!

Pictured is dinner: Cod and Beet Apple Salad. I enjoyed all 3 meals today. Hope I can stick with it this time around. Just knowing all the benefits of eating healthy is not necessarily enough to keep someone on any plan. But here I go!

2nd Go Round

I've finally returned to the Paleo plan and I can't tell you how happy it makes me. I've been stumbling around for several days and realized how much more energy I have when I eat paleo. So, the photo on the left was my breakfast: Sweet Potato Hash and 2 poached eggs. The photo on the right was my lunch: turkey burger with tomato, onion, slivered almonds and an orange.

I did a 9-mile bike ride and I've been busy doing yard work...pruning trees. There is always lots of yard work to do and it's quite a work out! So, I've been holding my own as far as not gaining any weight.

7 lbs and Counting!

Today marks one month from the time I started the paleo way. Even though I have not been as vigilant as I had hoped, I'm still happy that I lost a total of 7 lbs. Also, my clothes are fitting looser.

Yoohoo!

Out of Service

Oh No!

Today is a non-paleo day...check back tomorrow.

On the Paleo

I decided not to follow today's menus and wing it the paleo way. I think it's more important to stay on the plan than to have to follow the menus as presented. I enjoyed a western omelet and sweet potato hash...yum yum.

I went for a 12 mile bike ride. I was a little tired so I snacked on beef jerky and macadamia nuts and some fruit. Don't feel like making dinner and I'm not really hungry. So, do I eat anyway? I don't know what the rules are as far as eating when not hungry. I'll have to investigate.

My Way

Breakfast today was supposed to be bacon, 2-3 eggs over easy or poached but I decided to have the quick paleo pancakes (previously pictured Sat Jan 8)instead. Again this was sooo delicious! Slated for lunch today was leftover Chicken Apple Salad but I enjoyed a grilled salmon salad (pictured on the left). On the right is tonight's dinner: Flank Steak and Bacon & Greens.

I took advantage of a beautiful day and went for a 15-mile bike ride. I'm looking over tomorrow's menus and I'm not very excited. Breakfast and lunch are both leftovers...not that I mind leftovers. It's just that I don't feel like eating steak tomorrow morning and slow-cooked rosemary veggies and meat. I'm sure I'll figure it out.
