First Day of Paleo

My first day of paleo went pretty well! Drank a lot of water and ate to my heart’s content. I only felt hungry when I was hungry, but because I’ve been foodblogging I’ve sure noticed how many times I get up to grab a snack.

Breakfast – 6 egg white scramble

Snacks throughout the day – banana, orange, dates, raisins, cranberries, almonds

Dinner – Oregano and curry dusted salmon with 2 red potatoes, mashed (no additives)

End of the night: Green tea and an orange

So far, so good! I’m heading into a full day of design and school so I’m prepping my food now. My class was curious about Green Vibrance so I’m bringing a canister for everyone to try it out. 🙂 I plan on squeezing in another workout this morning, but my lower body is so sore…maybe I can just focus on my upper body. Hope I can stay on track!
