First Day Back @ The GYM & First Day of ALL PALEO eating!

You'd think since I work at a GYM I'd workout everyday. While that was the case about a year ago, I unfortunately I let LIFE and other things get in the way and stop me. Of course then it was just excuse after excuse and well we all know where that got me. Gained weight back that I had lost, let me bad eating habits slip back in and well I remain a fatty. But that is now changing. I am more determined then ever to get myself back on track, and I know that The Paleo Diet will help me. So anyhow, this morning began day one of being back in the gym working out. I managed to get in a full 30 minutes of cardio on the treadmill, and LET ME TELL YOU boy was I winded and and did I sweat. Even with all of that I pushed through and in the end I felt better for doing it. I have decided for at least the first 4 weeks I am just going to work on getting my cardio in before I add strength training back, I don't want to overwhelm myself.

Now onto breakfast. This I can tell is going to be my one big challenge, since you are kind of limited in what you can eat. Hence the no cereal, oatmeal or yogurt. I think I am going to have to join a Paleo forum for some suggestions on breakfast type meals, and also so I can ask questions of things I am unsure of. Anyway for breakfast I had a banana and then after my workout I had a 3 berry protein shake. I hope that was allowed.

Lunch on the other hand is leftover dinner from last night. See above post for that.

I noticed today as well, that I felt less tired and did not feel stuffed after eating. I think this is going to work.
