I've been thinking about this 90 day Paleo Challenge alot. In fact it has basically consumed my thoughts all weekend. I am tired of being a fat ass. I've actually been tired for a long time. The only problem is, I love food. I love all of the things that are bad for me. Cheese, fried stuff, soda, beer, mmmmm beer. Not only do I love it, I love it frequently. I have been living the fast food lifestyle ever since I can remember. Basically every meal for me is fast food, it's ridiculous. I eat this crap then wonder why I can't be cute and fun like the skinny girls. I don't want to be skinny anymore. I just want to be healthy. lt has become more and more obvious that the only thing that is going to help me lose weight/get healthy is to monitor what I put in my mouth. I cannot continue to eat crap and think that just because I work out a couple of times a week that I'm going to wake up one day skinny as hell with a rock hard ass. Not happening. So I decided I'm going to do it. I'm going to completely change my diet and eating habits and I'm going to eat like a cave man for 90 days. Starting today...or so I thought. So, remember how this has been consuming my thoughts all weekend? Yeah well I've basically been taking a foodie tour of southern california eating everything I possibly can that I know I'm going to "miss" on this challenge. For my "last meal' I went to Jack In The Box for lunch today because weigh in/measuring is tonight. This is what I ate:
1. Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger
2. Medium Size Curly Fries
3. Regular Size Dr. Pepper
4. Regular Size Oreo Cookie Shake.
I actually can't believe I am writing it down for the world to see. It's kind of embarrasing. What's even more embarassing is that I just discovered that the Challenge doesn't start until next Monday, the 28th. I don't care though. I'm going to start tonight anyway...I think. Here goes nothin'...it's just one choice at a time, right?
About Me
- Raegan
- I started bootcamp at Team Crossfit Academy in Monrovia, Ca in September 2010 after becoming fed up with what was staring back at me in the mirror. I decided to make a change. I completed 2 cycles of bootcamp and in January 2011 I had built up enough confidence to try the Crossfit fundamentals. I have been doing Crossfit half-assed ever since. Don't get me wrong, I love it...Nothing brings me greater joy than deadlifting...but I'm still sick of what I see in the mirror. The only thing that's changed is that I can lift more weight, I still eat like crap. I realize now that I MUST change my diet...drastically! March 28th marks the start of a 90 day "Paleo Challenge". This is a brutally honest look at my journey...
