Only 1 more week of the paleo challenge left. I've cheated a few times- peanuts, cliff bar, cheetos, red wine, whoppers. I'm still proud of myself because never once did I feel out of control with it. I do eat when I'm stressed, but I didn't beat myself up about it & I didn't tell myself, "You've screwed up already so just eat what you want. You blew it." Instead, I got right back to eating healthy. I feel fabulous. My skin is clearer & less dry. My allergies are still bad, which I was hoping wouldn't be the case. Isaac's reflux is waaaaaay better. I've not lost any weight besides maybe 1/2-1lbs, which has surprised me. I expected to lose 3-4 lbs, but it's not been the case. I wish I had measured myself, although my clothes aren't fitting looser. I can tell that I'm stronger, my muscles are more defined, and my cellulite is almost non-existent. I feel tight & firm and there's no better feeling then that! Even with no weight loss my attitude about myself has improved a ton and that has been invaluable and Riley's favorite part of the experiment as well. Pics coming on Thursday!
