My first week of the Paleo Challenge

I have to admit going into this I was nervous to give up my "carbs", kept telling AJ, "I need my carbs for energy, this all Paleo can't be good!" Well I was wrong. After only 9 days I feel great! I have lost 5 pounds already and I actually feel that I have more energy throughout the day than I had before. I am enjoying all the meals that I have prepared thinking why didnt I do this sooner?! Who needs to use sugar and processed flour when you can make Morning Glory Muffins with REAL ingredients...amazing. I have realized not only do I not need sugar, wheat and processed carbs, I don't want them anymore. I'm never going back now!

  1. Welcome to the other side Nat! I'm really excited when ANYONE tries the paleo diet - but it's even more fun for me when it's a friend. This will change your life - carbs are so overrated. Make sure that you are getting enough protein and fat - if you are hungry be sure to eat more. Keep up the great work!

  2. Thanks Mel glad you are my team leader! I bought the twilight squares today, had one with a few almonds and a raspberry on top, perfectly satisfying thanks for the tip!
