12 Weeks!!!!

Monday was 12 weeks since I started this blog and got serious about Paleo.  I'd like to take a look back and see what good has come of this.  What progress have I made?

Since starting this blog I have:

  • Lost over 5% of my body weight (   I know that the scale isn't the best indicator of health, but I am a lover of hard data and numbers!)
  • Had to put several items of clothing away because they are too big (people commented on them being too baggy, so I quit wearing them!)
  • Have had very few episodes of the crippling GI problems that I was dealing with since November 2011.  The episodes I have had were much less painful and didn't last as long
  • Planned my meals for the entire week for the last 7 weeks and now have a LOT less stress about what to make for dinner and I make smarter choices!
  • Convinced my husband that Paleo is the way to go (he loves it!)
  • Learned that I like some things I had never tried (guacamole, zucchini, cabbage, coconut milk...etc.)
  • Discovered and decided to start the Whole30 program with my husband in July
  • Learned all sorts of things about how food & exercise affects your body (scientifically)
