#Mamavation:Diet

I despise the word "diet", why?  Because I always fail.  As soon as someone tells me I can't eat something because its not part of the diet, I fail.  Each & every time.  Its frustrating that I am that weak & cave into those cravings.  That's why when  Mamavation posted about the Paleo Lifestyle.  It intrigues me.  I have some very good friends who are into Cross Fit and they follow this nutritional lifestyle.  They eat a lot of the same foods that I do ( meat & vegetables) only no starch.  They do not use bread or pastas very often.  Basically they live by the concept that if it grows natural, we'll eat it.  I think this lifestyle is very do able.  But like any lifestyle change you have to want it, in order for it to work for you & your family.  I've thought about changing my family to a more Paleo life, but I want to learn more about it first, that and I'm not sure I could completely give up my starches.  I'm really looking forward to the Mamavation TV tonight. I hope to find out more about what truly makes up the Paleo diet, as well as to find out some tricks to the trade.

Let's cheer on the Mom's going to Fitcation 2012!!  I am really kicking myself for not signing up for this amazing opportunity. I hope that each of you sweat your butts off & learn a lot while you are enjoying the amazing scenery.  I will definitely be signing up for 2013 if it works within my schedule. 

 

The weigh in.....  well I did not lose, but I didn't gain either so as of today I'm at a stand still.  I'm going to have to kick it up a bit this week.
