So I am in no way finished with my Journey. I have a LONG way to go. But when I started Paleo on January 1st 2014 I decided I would take monthly measurements to help keep me motivated. So here I am one month later and my results are awesome! I know not every month will be this great, but for those of you wavering, here are my results (keeping in mind I have a lot of weight to lose)
18 pounds lighter
-3/4 inches off my neck
-3 inches around my chest
-3 inches around my waist
-2 and 1/4 inches around my stomach
-1/4 inch on my thigh.
I have lost 18 pounds and 9 1/4 inches in one month. plus I feel AMAZING. No doubt about it paleo is the way to go. I thought I would share my progress, bc I view it as a small victory! Also if any Newbies or sort of newbies ( like me) are looking for friends for support, hit me up wit a friend request!

I don't know if this is a "victory" but in an effort to get my gym's paleo challenge off on the right foot I was a busy bee in the kitchen on Sunday and I made 5 new recipes for my meals this week! It was a lot of fun and the ones I have eaten so far were quite good. Looking forward to trying the rest as the week goes on.0

ascrit- recipes please!!
Plucky, those are in no way small victories! Great job and thank you for sharing!0 -
thanks everyone! And yes please share your recipes! lol. I have a pintrest board where i store the paleo recipes i find on blogs. I will admit though i tried a paleo chocolate chip cookie recipe last night for the first time. I havent made any paleo desserts in the almost 40 days i have been paleo, but my birthday is on MOnday and I wanted to have something i could eat. They were a MISERABLE failure. they were so dry they sucked all the moisture out of my mouth and i threw them away. :sad: i guess i will have a bowl of fruit with a candle in it on Monday :laugh:0

I know the feeling, I made some snicker doodles at Christmas that were all Paleo and they tasted good coming out of the oven but were gross the next day. :sad:0

I'm not big on Paleo substitutes but there's a bacon (that's right: BACON) chocolate chip cookie recipe out there that is awesome. I like anything with pumpkin too.0

I went right through my birthday with nothing sweet (everyone was sad about "no cake" but me). If I need something sweet I will toss a chocolate square in my mouth and let it melt. Also I love buttered pop corn and went to the theater a week or so ago and had toasted almonds in ghee it was like pop corn to me, I need to make more.0
