My body is still sore from yesterday's workout, so going in this morning (and I was late. I HATE being late! Stupid alarm!) was hard enough. Add that crazy workout into the mix, and I am hurting. But I really gave it my all during the workout and did really well. I LOVE working out. I especially love sweating and feeling my workouts because that's when I know I'm really doing something.

This is day 1 of no nuts. I cut out almonds on Monday and took my pistachios into the gym this morning so they won't be tempting me. So far so good. I have been pretty solid eating right, and I've kept it Paleo. The only thing I have eaten today that wasn't Paleo was a slice of Swiss cheese with my turkey (protein) and coconut flakes (good fat) for my snack. I was craving cheese and chose that over the shredded cheese, which has lots of extras. So, I still feel good about today's eating. I had a small box of raisins at the end of the work day, which I know I'm supposed to have in moderation, but it was a much better choice than it could have been. My cravings tend to come often, but that's because my body is (HOPEFULLY!) transitioning from being a sugar burner to a fat burner. For example, last night I had this incredible craving for french toast or pancakes. I rarely eat these things, especially since cutting out grains. However, last night I convinced myself that one of those foods WILL be my first cheat meal. ...and then I started thinking about making my Paleo pancakes, so maybe that just goes to show my head is still in the right place even when clouded with thoughts of deliciously horrible foods :)

I guess that's all for this boring update. Thanks for reading. Until tomorrow.
