Time flies when you are having fun!!!

I can't believe we are almost two weeks in to the paleo challenge. Now that Chad has taken away my scale, I am a little lost in the morning!!! Will just take some getting used to. I have done a great job with more protein this week although I could still use more I think. I have ordered some bison meat and will pick that up when I get back from Vancouver.

I have a little catching up to do on the blog....

So Chad thinks I am somewhat obsessing about the scale...I don't get what he means, I have only weighed myself every single day since I was 12!!!!! So tomorrow I am going to......give Chad my scale until after the paleo challenge!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!
I tried to add more protein in today and hope to do even more tomorrow.

Everybody is different.

I came into crossfit today really discouraged. I am "paleotizing" like crazy, going to crossfit, and running and felt that I wasn't making as much progress as I would like. I talked to Chad and he made the point that everyone's body is different. I am not like Chad, I am like his wife...we look at food and it immediately attaches itself to our bodies. So for someone like me, things are a bit more difficult. So....I need to take things a step further and focus my paleo diet on more protein..and even more protein. So, that is what I am going to do..off to the bison meat shop tomorrow after crossfit!
