Great weekend, bad food

20 01 2010

We had a great getaway this weekend and spent two nights at a hotel downtown. Restaurants, entertainment, and shopping were all in walking distance, and we were prepared to eat paleo all weekend long. WE FAILED MISERABLY. We knew after this weekend we had two options:

1) lie through our teeth and say that we were still at 100% paleo

2)tell the truth so that you see that we’re not perfect at this either.

Obviously we chose the latter. The funny thing is that the food we ate did not taste any better than our paleo meals. It certainly did not make us feel any better than our paleo meals. In fact, we both had digestion problems (sticking with polite terminology here), headaches, congested sinuses and fatigue. Surely, it must be from other causes? Hardly. Our diet was the ONLY thing to change in the last few days, and we now know that paleo DOES WORK. We’ve been frantic the past day or two to get to the grocery store to make some of our delicious paleo meals.

We wish we could say that we didn’t feel any different going from paleo to non-paleo, but that would be a lie. Our bodies are smart and react to the slightest change in nutrition and exercise. We know now that we will listen to our bodies. Can you hear yours?

“Paleo please!!”

Keep posting your progress, we love reading your comments. :)
