Many of you officially started the paleo challenge Sunday Jan 3, so we will count this as the start date. Aj and I are going to posting about how our days are going and would like to hear from you on your challenges as well. The support is going to be very important in getting through the next 29 days and sticking to the plan! Remember if you fall off, no worries, just get right back on at the next meal.
Day 1 for me started strong and I managed to ignore the brownies that were staring at me from the kitchen counter. Here is what I ate:
Breakfast: 3 eggs and a tangerine
Lunch : Green salad with sesame seeds, tomatos, cucumbers, olive oil and vinegar and baked trout
Dinner: Went out for Sushi and had seaweed salad and sashimi and a glass of sake and hot tea. Luckily the place didn't have green tea tempura ice cream otherwise there might have been another stare down. For the most part I think my day went well and I felt great!
How did you do? Post to comments…
Even though the holidays are over we still have plenty of opportunities to overeat or splurge on unhealthy foods. Here is a short video I came across that offers helpful tips.

Day 1 down…The day went great. I started with a weigh in at 208 an extra 3 pounds post holiday break.
Breakfast was an Apple and a 3 egg mushroom and sausage scramble.
Lunch was some lunch meat, tuna with pickles, pear and some nuts.
Dinner was a shrimp stuffed avacado with lemon and asparagas.
Feel good…Are pickles considered Paleo? What about mustard or balsamic vinegar?
Julia did well also staying with the program…Looking forward to tomorrow.
Doing a strict Paleo isn’t as hard as I thought.
Breakfast: A scramble with 1 egg, mushrooms and spinach
Lunch: Chicken with mustard greens
Dinner: Chicken with mustard greens (I didn’t feel like cooking again)
Snacking ocasionally on some almonds, a tangerine or grapes.
