Forgive Me

Paleo God, it's been several month since I've had a proper blog confession/entry!

Well I am coasting... I think another 30 day challenge is in order to shed those last bits and solidify my ways. There has been some indulgences in the way of sugar... sweeter coffees (1/2 sweet! and that's too sweet sometimes!), chocolate, cakes.... but I've done well with grains, with the exception of rice. What bothers me is my cavalier attitude towards my choices. No conviction. That makes for a slippery slope to ugliness.

For a solid month I think I ate very little with snacks. Stress. I didn't feel hungry either! And I still had energy! This is one element I find fascinating, I don't have that dull sense of exhaustion or full exhaustion. Things can be stressful and I fall into a slight depression but that energy is there to hold me above the ugliness. It's wild and it's become a friend! Yes, I said it. I would be sad to see this constant source of energy leave. Hence it's one of the reasons I continue to eat this way. The other big one is weight loss. This isn't to say I don't get tired but it's because I haven't slept well. It's wild.

Again, exercise. I crave it now! This is a foreign sensation! I find myself running up the stairs, doing the odd exercises here and there but NO real stuff. I've come to love yoga and find my body longs for it. Time is always an issue. Though I'd like to get  my sister in law to hook me up with a routine i could do at home. i like the meditative part of it too. While I tried meditation, the stationary setting didn't mesh with my need to move. Yoga combines movement with the meditation. Perfect match.

I really need to tap back into some blogs. Some inspiration would be nice and give me some freshness. I am grateful for my culinary training and the ease in the kitchen that brings but even the "best" chefs need inspiration!

Well that's it. Done. I continue on with energy!
