So I started my new paleo challenge yesterday.
I kid I kid. :)
But I did start this new way of life where I eat much cleaner food... nothing processed. And for the next 60 days I eat no dairy or sugar. And possibly beyond... but for now, I am committing to the next 60 days.
The first week is done and I am ok. I made it. Once I got through the first couple of days, I did truly feel better than I've felt in a very long time. I have more energy. I am stronger.
I still miss my coffee creamer and my wine. I may always miss my creamer and my wine. But... I feel better.
The first monday I worked out at my usual time of 5:00 am. I ate well.
I got into an accident. Someone rear ended me on the way to my therapist. I know... I know... how this century I am. :) I got home from work and went for a run. It was hot. It was VERY hot. I got home and it took me an hour just to cool off enough to go to bed.
I woke up at 12:00 midnight with a migraine. I usually get a warning sign with my vision going funny... but when you're asleep... well, there's no warning. And it was a BAD one. I took two excedrin migraine's and it wasn't putting a dent into it. It took a HOT foot bath with dry mustard and when it cooled I was able to go back to bed and the headache abated.
But that was truly my only snafu with the new diet. :)
Week one down and 7 more to go. I feel great. Let's keep this going.
