Modern Day Hunter Gatherer

Yesterday, Trey called me and said congratulations. My first thought was, why are you congratulating me? What did I do? He was proud of me for completing the paleo 30 day challenge. During the month of August, I took on the challenge of eating meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts and oils -- and indulging every now and then.

Now what? 

I never thought I'd say this, but I think this kind of lifestyle is sustainable over a lifetime. Not, 100% Paleo, but 80/20. ----- Meaning, eating clean 80% of the time and not worrying too much about the 20%. 

There is no denying how great I feel eating this way. That's why I've decided to continue eating this way. For how long? I don't know, as long as I want. I'm sure I will experience good and bad seasons of paleo, but my ultimate goal is to make this a lifelong habit. 

What I missed: 

Chocolate

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Oreos - which contain chocolate (duh)

Domino's Pizza

What I didn't miss (too much): 

Coffee - someone check my pulse to make sure I'm still alive

Cheese

BEANS!!!!! Again check my pulse

I would like to talk more about paleo and what it will look like for me. I already have so many blog topics I would like to discuss regarding this subject...my brain is brewing with ideas.
