Day 9

I believe I'm through the worst of it. Quitting sugar, salt, grains, cereals, dairy, and beer cold turkey is tough to do, but totally doable and worth doing. On Saturday, I felt the worst I've felt in a long time, but Sunday was a good day, though. I went for a 52k bike ride in the morning, hit the Safeway, cooked dinner for 10 people, and then went and played hockey later that night. I must've been feeling better. My body is changing, too. I look and feel very lean, and the 6-pack is making a comeback. I went for a Crossfit workout this morning and I felt pretty good. Still a little sluggish, but much improved over last week. I've lost a little weight. I was about 190lbs, but have slimmed down to 182lbs in the last week and a bit. I've been doing a lot of cycling lately, so I'm sure that's a contributing factor, but the complete lack of bacon, beer, and chocolate in my diet is having the biggest impact, I'm sure. I've turned into quite the che...

Day 30 (Day 22 Redux)

I'm back on top. Last week I think I bottomed out. I felt tired, cranky, sore, and sick. I felt weak and frail. I was beginning to doubt the whole paleo diet thing. I thought I had felt the worst of it about two weeks in, but last weekend was hell. I think I was starving to death! I stuck with it, though. A challenge, after all, is a challenge. I started eating more, and more often. Lots of between meal snacks. Mini carrots are great, for example, or a few (dozen) handfuls of almonds and sunflower seeds. I am the 'Smoothy King', as well. A handful of Europe's Best frozen field berries, some fresh strawberries, a kiwi, a banana, some pineapple, and some water makes a pretty tasty pre-breakfast snack. I'm eating a lot of omelets, too, with red peppers, tomatoes, onions, and crab meat. I started eating much bigger portions at dinner, too. More meat! It's starting to consume a lot of my day, hunting and gathering for meals, but I guess people didn't have m...

The Paleo Challenge

I've stopped eating sugar. I was a sugar-holic, though. Huge Mochas, donuts, lots of chocolate, double doubles. Almost everything I ate had a tons of sugar in it. I decided about a year ago that I would stop eating sugar. Then I tried a coffee at Tim Horton's without the cream and sugar, and I abandoned my sugarless ways. It seems the coffee is just a vehicle for the cream and sugar (much like cigarettes for nicotine). I had many similar experiences trying to quit smoking. I didn't even last a day. Shortly after that, I started working out at Crossfit BC . Great guys, great gym, great little community. Since May 2009, I've been going approx. twice a week to a grueling punishment that I will not describe here (you can check out the link). The transformation of my body was immediate. I hadn't exercised a lot prior to joining this training center, and certainly not with any regularity. In fact, I spent the first 35 years of my life trying to kill myself. I smoked f...
