Keep the peace

As we head back into the harsh world with our work and school schedules I challenge us all to try and keep a little of the Christmas peace in our hearts.  I am going to try and do my best.

The caveman paleo journey continues.  I had another carb flu feeling day so Carly Jo made me low carb chocolate chip cookies.  8 grams per cookie and they are a life saver.

Exercise for the day!  Nothing, nada, zilch.

Eating:
Breakfast was 2 eggs, sausage, 2 coffee with cream and Advocare Spark.  Carbs:  23
Snack:  Cottage cheese and nuts.  Carbs:  10
Lunch:  Steak with salad and pinto beans with fruit cup and small square of chocolate.  Carbs:  24
Snack:  Low carb cookie...thank you Carly Jo, milk and Advocare Spark.  Carbs:  22
Dinner:  We went to Angelinas and I carbed out with dinner.  Carbs:  52

Carbs for the day were 131.  Sometimes in this journey I think you just have to eats some carbs.  Keep it as clean as possible, but eat some carbs.

Perks of paleo are that I am sleeping way better, feeling way happier and feeling slimmer.  Did a little measuring yesterday and my waist is smaller and pants continue to feel more comfortable.  One weird side effect is that after I work out I don't "stink like stink" (phrase from runner susan's daughter Kenza).  It is true my sweaty self doesn't stink like stink after I work out now.  I guess all those carbs were stinkin' me out.  Weird I know, but true.

Show up and make it count!
