Hell Week Days 2 & 3

Day 2 and 3 are over! Let me just say... I know why they call it Hell Week. It SUCKS! 

So, the morning of day 2, I weighed 117.0. I was pretty happy with it. 

The past two days, I've had a LOT of that Mexican cauliflower rice I made. But alas, I finished it during lunch today, so I made Chicken Fajitas with this awesome recipe I found on Paleo Plan! No lemon or lime juice though, because I can't have fruit. 

Speaking of which, I feel like my whole life was a sugar high and now I just can't stop crashing. It's terrible. I'm shaking nonstop and even though I've been sleeping more than usual, I look absolutely dead all day. 

I can't stop thinking about all the food I want and can't eat. Like pineapple. Mmm... Pineapple. I just want it all so bad. Granted, it doesn't help when my oh-so-supportive boyfriend takes me to the grocery store to laugh about everything I can't have (which adds up to like 99%... Sigh...)

I'm hoping this starts getting better but I'm not seeing much hope right now. Apparently I've also been more sad/depressed/grumpy too. I hadn't noticed. But... Tomorrow's HUMP DAY! 

Yes, I know it's Sunday, don't judge me. 

I'm only calling it that because it's day 4/7 for no fruit/bacon. I NEED that fruit and bacon. 

Well, until tomorrow, wish me luck! And if you wanna know how this works out, just hope I survive long enough to post again. 

Long time no blog!

So… it's been a while… again. But here I am!

Anyways, I just tried spaghetti squash for the first time last week and it was AMAZING! I was really surprised that it had almost no taste, and once added to my super organic (almost) paleo spaghetti sauce and ground beef, I couldn't even tell the difference.

I love noodles. I mean, I LOVE noodles. Like, a lot. So obviously it's really hard for me not to eat them and I am ashamed to admit that sometimes I slip up. But, I'm happy to announce that I actually PREFER spaghetti squash.

I know what you're thinking- "Yeah, right! She's only saying that because she's posting on a Paleo Blog." But, it's true. Not only do the spaghetti squash "noodles" have the same texture (not to mention they're all short - I don't even have to cut up my spaghetti!), but they don't make my tummy hurt like normal noodles, which to me is a double win.

Until next time!

Makeover?!

So, next time you look at my site, you may be wondering, "Where the heck did it go?!" So, I would like to explain.

While the cutesy pink thing was nice and "princessy," I'm more of a modern-day princess, just like I'm more of a modern-day cave(wo)man. So, I decided to do something that fit me a little better. I hope you all like it!

Sorry (again...)

I know, I know... I must be the worst blogger of all time! I mean, I should at least update on a regular basis right?!

Although there are no excuses for my poor blogging frequency, I will say that now that I have finals almost out of the way, I will have a LOT more time (and energy) for blogging.  

So, if not sooner, I'll post again this weekend. Until then, try not to miss me too much! (Just kidding...)

Weigh-in #2

Yes, I know... I'm sorry I haven't really been keeping up with everything. And if I'm being honest, my diet DID slack for a while. But I've been back on and doing great!

The number from yesterday is... 114.0! 

I'm super excited with the progress I've made both in the numbers and in how I look. I can't wait to see how I'll be next week! It's small steps but I'm getting somewhere :D

CANDY! pt.2

I have officially made the Paleo-friendly Twix bars from my previous post and they were rather tasty. Next up… junior mints! Sorry I forgot pictures, but I promise they will be included next time.

Miss me?

I'm back! I know it's been like, a week and I'm super sorry, but I've been really busy and I guess I've just kinda forgotten to keep blogging. But fear no more!

Last night I made Paleo English Muffins thanks to Stacey beautyandthefoodie.com! They were super fast, super easy, and surprisingly yummy! You can find the recipe here: http://www.beautyandthefoodie.com/quick-paleo-english-muffins/.

ANYWAYS, I got some Organicville BBQ sauce, (which you can find here: http://organicvillefoods.com/products/bbq-sauces/original-organic-bbq-sauce/) and may I say- YUM! I wanted little muffin pizzas, but since my favorite pizza is BBQ chicken, I opted to not go for tomato sauce. Not that there's anything wrong with it.

The sauce was really great, even if it was a little sweeter than I expected. I spread it all over my pizza and added some cheese, (I know, not exactly Paleo, but old habits die hard), bacon, and chicken, and it was GREAT! I think I'm in love. The best thing is I had enough left for lunch… and probably dinner again today. Woohoo!

I'll make sure to keep y'all updated, and as a sign of good faith, I'll even tell you that I got a membership to a yoga studio. Whaaaaaaaat?! Did I mention that it's HOT yoga? I've only done it once, but I decided I want to be even MORE active and it seemed like a great opportunity. Anyways, I'll keep you posted.
