First off, I want to mention that I have been having great success following the Paleo way of eating. I started off following the 30-day Whole30 plan, now I have things that are off plan every now and then (like once or twice a week) but I NO LONGER have the cravings for sweets that I used to. (That was especially nice during Halloween.) I am eating almost no grains. (I did indulge in a few pieces of bread total over the last month and I had a helping of rice at a Thai restaurant - both totally worth it.) I am consuming almost no dairy. (I did have some yummy cheeses one day and have had a little pastured butter.) I have had almost no legumes besides green beans since I started, which was almost 2 months ago. I am definitely leaning out. I see hubby changing, too. But, it's common that when I pay more attention to food, he loses weight. In fact, he does faster than I do, the jerk. :) (just kidding, sweetie!)
As a result, I get to cross off one more goal that I made for myself toward the beginning of the year. I got back to the weight I had originally declared with Weight Watchers back when I was doing that plan. This time, I feel better, don't count ANYTHING and I have a butt.
This morning, I finished the last Phase 1 Body of Fire workout. I did ALL the pushups on the floor!! WOOT! Of course, they were not banged out, one after the other. I had to pause a lot in the last sets. But, they got done with good form, full range of motion (chest hitting floor) and arms in. Wow. I surprised myself. That's 91 pushups, by the way! It was cold out for the sprints. 23F. But, it was only six minutes, so I survived.
