During the past seven days I had a few minor headaches, low energy/ energy swings and cravings like nobody’s business… I’m talking cookies, crusty bread that’s soft in the middle with some garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. I can literally taste the food. My addiction to sugar and carbs are kicking my butt. I feel like Pookie from New Jack City… The cookies just keeps calling me. The cool thing is that I have a great support group online. Shout out to my Paleo God Mothers Margo from Brooklyn Fit Chick and Kelly from Curvy Fit Girl. These women have gave me advice, listen to me complain, and even talked me off the ledge a few times when my cravings get out of hand. Thank You Ladies!!
For those who are thinking about going Paleo, the thing that really helped me the most was meal planning. I’m talking about breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, midnight snacks etc. Know what I’m going to eat, even in a bind help me greatly. All of my recipes last week came from PaleOMG, I really like her site because it’s has a meal planer and shopping list on the site. What I did was plan my meals then downloaded the Ziplist app to my phone and went shopping from the list that it created. It definitely saved me some time.
Well that’s all I got for this week… Here’s to seven days down and 83 more to go.
