Will anyone notice??
I'm a teacher so I'll be going back to work next week for Professional Development. I've lost 22 pounds this summer. Of course I'm still 327 lbs. I feel like someone might, but I might be disappointed if no one does. I've resolved not to tell anyone until THEY notice.

Butternut Squash Recipe I made
http://paleoindayton.blogspot.com/ I made a really awesome Butternut Squash Soup last night and i have to share. It's a conglomeration of two recipes I found on Pinterest and it is awesome. It's Paleo, AIP, and can be made vegetarian. Best of all, for a small amount of money, it made a HUGE crockpot full of food!!! It's…

Packing Lunch Ideas
I'm a teacher and my Back to School PD starts next week. (Yes, it's true. We really don't have all summer off.) I have some ideas for lunches because I've been helping hubby pack his for the past month, but I could use some fresh ideas since I'll be packing for both of us this year. For me, I need to pack things that won't…

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!! It is Day 27 and I went to see the awesome endocrinologist this morning. I have lost 13 pounds since my last visit a month ago!!!!! AND I have ALMOST lost the pre-diabetic label. My Glycohemoglobin was 5.7% and the range for pre-diabetic is 5.7-6.4. One more *$&% percentage point and I would have lost…

After Whole 30 Strategy?
So, its Day 22 so naturally I'm thinking about what comes after my Whole 30. I still have a lot of weight to lose and I'm nowhere close to healthy yet. My house is pretty much clear of things that aren't Whole 30 with the exception of a few things I haven't touched in 22 days (organic sugar, sugar free jams, regular mayo).…

Is Paleo Expensive.... My personal experience
I started Paleo almost 14 days ago. I started on a Friday (payday) and get paid biweekly. So, since we are not planning on going out ordering out for the next few days, I did some calculations for my last two pay periods... I considered only food - eating out, ordering out, and groceries. Now of course, groceries includes…

Halfway Through my Whole 30!!
I'm on Day 16 which means I'm halfway finished with my Whole 30. Hubby joined me on day 5, so he's on Day 11. In 11 days, his shorts are falling down so he had to tighten his belt and tighten the draw string on his shorts. Last night, I took off my jean shorts (that were tight at the beginning of the summer) without…

Exercise at 350
Hi, I'm new to the group and I'm having trouble with exercise. I want to try and I downloaded a few videos from youtube and tried them, but it was a mess. I could only do five minutes of a 15 minute workout and did half of those horribly wrong. I was so uncoordinated and unbalanced I could barely do a few of them at all.…

Whole 30 - Day 10
One third down!! Yesterday I had a tiny slip and ate sugar in a sauce my friend prepared. But I said no to S'Mores and chocolate as well as bread! Still working outside at least an hour every other day. My yard is getting in shape and I'm pinning ideas for future projects on Pinterest. I've dreamed about chocolate, but I…

Day 5 of my Second Whole 30. Feeling GREAT!
So I'm on Day 5 of my second whole 30. I've been VERY strict and tracking here to make sure I stay within calorie recommendations as well. I feel AMAZING. I have more energy, detox was next to nothing because I'd been doing Paleo like 90%. Exercise has always been a weakness of mine. I am excessive sweater and I hate to…

Dreaming about Chocolate - literally!!!
I've been sugar-free for 6 days. Seriously! No sugar at all! No processed foods, no sugar in my spaghetti sauce, no sugar in anything. If something contains sugar of any kind I haven't eaten it. But I'm dreaming of Reese cups, and Reese Pieces. :( This is two dreams now. I think I have to admit. I am addicted to sugar,…

I never use all my calories!
When doing Paleo - even at 80% I never use all my calories. And I'm not trying to anything dumb like that. I'm just not hungry for anything else. Is this a problem? Does anyone else do this? Have results been ok? MFP keeps warning me that my body is going to go into "starvation mode."
