Yup!

Paleo

Here I go again with a new "diet". Actually, I don't even think of this as a diet, just trying to eat clean. I have been doing a lot of research and been trying to eat foods that are healthy and that I make myself so I know what is in each dish. Paleo is perfect (a bit expensive) to get me started. I am not going to follow it exactly and will probably have more cheat meals than I should but at least its a step in the right direction. I have already started making some of the recipes I have found (Thanks Pinterest!) and they are SOOOO yummy. I am in love with Paleo orange chicken and lettuce wraps. I have a ton more to try this weekend. Since it is only me I am cooking for I can freeze some and also take some to work for a healthy lunch. It keeps me full and I don't snack as often, when I do snack it is almost always on carrots and hummus (which is technically not Paleo but still healthy, right?) or my homemade trail mix. I am not a fan of nuts so sunflower seeds make up the majority of it.

 I have taken before pictures and my measurements, maybe if i really get into it and succeed I will post the before and after shots. My goal is to be healthy and fit by June. I am happy with my weight (well sorta, is anyone ever really happy with the number on the scale?!) but want to feel confident come summer time.

 I also got a juicer which I can't wait to try out. Get all my servings of fruit and veggies in one glass. I am not brave enough to try the all veggie juices but maybe one day!

Here's to hoping I stick with it!!

To blog or not to blog

Blogging has seemed to have lost its excitement. Most blogs have either gone private (which no offense to those that are, but its annoying!), or people (like me) have lost their enthusiasm and never blog. After talking with my friend KC, we decided that we miss it, reading other peoples and writing about our random daily doings and thoughts.
So I have decided to get back on the blogging bandwagon and document my life. I no longer consider my life to be very exciting, and maybe it never was, but I don't really think I have that many followers left, so who really cares if you find me boring or don't think I am as witty as I find myself to be. This Blog is for me, and one day I may want to look back and laugh at all the pointless events I found so thrilling or blog worthy. So here I go...making another attempt at blogging, and hopefully I'll stick with it!

Just a little humor
