It’s been a couple of weeks since I have posted a Mamavation Monday post. Mostly because I had nothing to say, except my choices haven’t been working. I haven’t been to the gym in weeks, mostly because of being busy, sick kids, etc. When it comes to food, there are just too many bad choices out there, and it’s been hard trying to have self control of the toxins. So after some research this weekend, I have decided to go Paleo, for at least a month.

I have pinned a ton of Paleo recipes on Pinterest. I made a shopping list, bought most of what I could today, and the rest tomorrow. I’m going to try and post what meals I make/eat this next month and I really hope it helps me feel better. My current weight is 212, and I am not happy about that. It’s great knowing I have lost over 20lbs since the start of the year, but I have more yet to go. Next week is the beginning of our Mamavation Graduate campaign, and we will be getting Taebo DVD’s from Billy Blanks. Even if I can’t make it to they gym, I have no excuse. I want, no need, to be down to 200 before the end of the year.

I have seen the paleo diet A LOT but haven’t really tried it yet.
I keep reading different things about it and have been curious. I know I already eat a lot like the paleo diet without really trying TOO much. There are a few things that I do eat that are strictly forbidden however.
I will watch your progress along with a lot of others I see doing it and decide!
Have a great week!

Good luck! I know Rhea has had great success with the Paleo lifestyle so I hope it works out for you too.

Good luck, Hanan! I have toyed with the idea of trying Paleo. I’ll watch your progress to see how it goes!

Best of luck on the diet. It isn’t a good fit for me, but anytime you cut out the processed and refined foods you are bound to be doing a great thing for your body! Good luck and you are going to do amazing on the grad challenge. :)

Congrats on losing and maintaining the 20lb weight loss – that’s fantastic! Good luck with the Paleo diet – I’ve never tried it, instead I just count servings of fruits n veggies and protein. Thinking about food as fuel will certainly help you as you reach 200 lbs by the end of the year – I know you can do it!!

Wow! Good for you! I agree, with so many toxins, GMO, etc it is so hard to know what to eat.
I am new to Mamavation and I’m looking forward to learning more about your experience with the Paleo diet. Nice to meet you!
