Abs are made in the kitchen. I never thought this was true until now. Changing what I eat has not only changed my body but changed my life. I was tired all the time. So tired it became hard to focus at work. I saw multiple doctors and each told me the same story, I needed to change my medication, I needed to get more sleep, I needed to exercise more. Every story they told me didn't apply to me. After many frustrations I began to change the source of my energy... FOOD! I found this amazing book 'It starts with food' and began researching the Paleo diet. I gave up everything bad and replaced it with amazing things, 'real food – meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, healthy oils,
nuts and seeds. Foods that were raised, fed and grown
naturally, and foods that are nutrient-dense, with lots of naturally
occurring vitamins and minerals.' I began the challenge of eating clean for 30 days no cheats! The results were amazing. I began waking up every morning at 8am by myself, something that has never happened before. I no longer needed to take naps every day and I began to see changes in the way I looked. My muscles were becoming more defined and my pants were getting much larger. My head was clear and I could think straight. I began to realize that the food I gave my body did make a huge difference.But its not that easy to give up all the foods you love. Cereal, pasta, and cookies. These were my comfort foods, by go to foods, and I wanted them everyday. After the challenge I began to slip and latley I have been not soo good. Crazy thing is I can see such a difference when im not eating clean. So back on the wagon I go. Starting tomorrow.. after I eat a cookie. Hey a girl has got to live. :D
