It is day 7 of my paleo challenge, for the uninitiated (you are missing out of a food revolution by the way, poor you) this means I only eat as my cave woman ancestor would have. Foraging for seasonal produce and organic happy meat, or in my case perusing the local farmers market for worm ridden organic over priced goodness. I eat meat, veg, nuts, seeds, little fruit and starch, and NO SUGAR for a month.
Feel sorry for me? Well don't. Day 7 and I feel energised, less bloated and finally free of my very overwhelming biscuit addiction. I kid you not.. every (and I mean every) night I would consume vast amounts of bikkies (even gross orange creams if that is all I had left) with a cup of tea. Well not anymore. I am free. Well kind off. I still think about how to 'cheat' paleo style. Which if you are in the school of thought that paleo treats are a vehicle for sugar, I should not even have 'treats' as this is placating the sugar tantrum. I will have to work on this. It is a good enough result right now to not have the bikkie. The fine tuning can follow.
This weekend was the first weekend, forever, that I have had a clean weekend. What a remarkable feat.
Week 2 goals:
- get to crossfit 3 times.
- keep eating well
- keep my fruit to a minimum
- give up milk (which really means triple shot lattes)
- and try not to obsess about how hard crossfit it.
Crossfit tonight. I will report in tomorrow and give you an update on how crap I was, finishing last and all. My only goal for crossfit tonight is actually peeling my ass off the couch and going.
