Paleo Day 8…Down 6 Pounds, Here Comes The Cravings, 100 Weeks Left

So after what turned out to be more of a cheat day than a cheat meal, I set about my Monday to go back to my usual staple of veggies and fish.

So far, so good! Day 2 and I haven't gone off the deep end yet. I did, however, unload my 25-ct croissant box and my Simply Apple juice at school. SCORE!

Spring Cleaning: Paleo Diet and My Brand New Training Schedule

My last race left me a bit frustrated with how I've been trying to shove everything into my schedule...balancing school, freelancing, internship, and personal relationships left very little time for training the last few months, and I'm fed up! I've gained a bit of weight (SUPER SADFACE) and frankly, that's not okay. I'm feeling less … Continue reading Spring Cleaning: Paleo Diet and My Brand New Training Schedule →
