over 20lbs

I'm down lower than I've been the past 5 years, but my teeth are turning brown. It scares me, i'm brushing and brushing and there are still brown stains. After some googling, it discovered that I might have a vitamin c deficiency. That sounds about right . . . I haven't eaten much citrus since switching to a Paleo diet.  So, today, I'll head to Whole Foods to get some Vitamin C tablets and oranges and orange juice if I can find some with no additives or preservatives.  I figure I  can add an orange a day to my diet.   I'm hoping that I'll see changes within the week.

Also, I have found that buying my pork a whole foods is about the same price as buying it at the farmers market. I will still buy from the farmers market to support local industry, but on weeks where I don't make it to the market and especially in the winter-Whole Foods will do just fine.

Doing really well on Paleo since school has started, but I've found that my diet has changed a little bit.  Not as much coconut milk. Mostly I find myself making a protein on the foreman grill and veggies roasted in the oven and something raw.  I don't have time on the weekends for the massive cooking that I used to do.  When the next holiday rolls around I'll probably make some zucchini muffins and freeze them.  I find that I don't want them everyday like I used to.   And I'm okay with out snacks.  My biggest issue is staying away from chocolate.  What has worked:  not having it in the house. Pretty much I just eat whats at home or in my lunch box.

I'm really happy about the changes to my body shape.Really happy.

  1. Glad you're still feeling good. Not glad about the teeth. Be sure to keep us updated. Neither of us had that happen.
