This Wino is going Paleo?!?!?

doriOk So maybe not NEVER!  But I did join the Lurong (is that how you spell it) Paleo Challnege that Starts next monday!  Call me crazy.  So, I’ll journal my progress here!  Where else…  where no one can see it of course!  So I drink One glass of wine a day, nevermind my glass fits an entire bottle.  I don’t drink it every night.  Sometimes I have beer. (Just one or two.. I’m telling the truth this time.)   But what the heck.  I might as well try this thing.  So last night I finished all the wine AND beer in my house.  Which was one beer and half a bottle of wine. (The Colts were playing the Broncos so it was an easy excuse).

I’ve borrowed a Paelo cookbook on my kindle, I have a paleo 7 day plan (because I don’t mind eating the same stuff over and over), and I’m starting to ease myself into it this week.  Starting with the wine. I’ll sub it with some hot tea I think.

So I guess this is a good time to admit that I started Crossfit too.  I know its kind of a bad word where I work.  But I tried it out and I really like it.  My coach isn’t stupid like I had been lead to believe all Cross-fit coaches were (though I have met my share)  I’ve quizzed him.  He’s very intelligent and knows his anatomy and physiology.  He understands bio-mechanics and I’ve watched him work with others at the gym who are not ready to progress the lifts yet.   He knows his shit, and I like going to his gym because its not my gym.  Someone is finally correcting my form, and helping me.   So if you’re thinking about cross-fit, check it out.  Make sure your coach knows what he/she is doing and knows the body.

Back to what I was saying about this Paleo Challenge.  I told my husband I was doing it.  So hopefully he will be onboard as well. He’ll eat whatever I cook, but sometimes he buys the groceries.  Then we get Twinkies, Ho Ho’s, White Bread, Fish Sticks, Peanut butter with Honey, Whole milk, eggs and bacon, biscuits, and maybe some Brussels.

So I guess I should go eat now.  Start drinking some water, and get ready to exercise.  Its gonna be a long 5 weeks.   Wish me luck.
