Food Isn’t what it Used to Be

So, I for one am certainly finding this diet a challenge. I love it, it's tough. Don't get me wrong - I'm leaning up but I feel like I need assistant blockers around each corner. Not to mention the anxiety of one of your friends or clients catching you with your hand in the cookie jar. This week I was able to stay in the mid 80 percentile for the zone-paleo. I had (in reverse order) about a gallon of popcorn, a half a brick of brownie (thank you CFP), daily wallop of cream in my quad americano and maybe a little honey, an eggnog latte, and probably too many seedless but delicious red grapes, and a little vino - altogether around 2 litres (shout out to Killer Cab of Pacific Breeze Wineries).

Not bad for the week, right?? No cheese, ice-cream, scotch, or bread.

What were your treats and diversions off the diet??? Post your confessions and nightmares (BK had burger and cheese nightmares). Could you stay away from bread, cereal, starch and sugar??

On a Good Note
- I bought 12 different vegatables today to put in my weekly rotation
- Ate a bunch of Moose, Bison, Halibut and Salmon to put on a little muscle. Around 170g protein/day
- Ensured every meal included protein, good fat and decent amounts of lower glycemic fruits and veg
- took my 8g of Omega3 Fish Oil each day

Please (Paleo Challengers) compile your food log and save it as a PDF. Send it in Tuesday to .
