I'm still in the game! I've been busy with work, taking care of my health, wedding planning and my diet and fitness lifestyle. I will update more later but wanted you all to know that I didn't fall off the earth!

Yes, you definitely don't want to overcook your veggies.

I can understand falling off the Paleo wagon but good for you for getting back on! I'm curious what your 7th day meals look like...

When it comes to kale, the right seasonings is key. A little lemon, salt, spice and not overcooking it. Try this recipe: http://nomnompaleo.com/post/3082537932/quick-and-simple-stir-fried-kale-and-bacon

Day 4 Definitely had a pretty busy day today but managed to get to the gym this morning. Squats 150 lbs - 8x4 Lunges (forgot the weight) - 15x4 Lat/pull down 70 lbs - 8x4 Cardio (jump rope, rowing machine) I managed to get a lot of water in but I need more food. Work in process... Thanks, rexsomnii!

Day 3 Today was a workout rest day so I just did some light walking. I wish I drank more water but tomorrow is a new day.

Had a perfectly paleo day today: bacon, cod, chicken, salads, greens, lots of veggies, blue berries, etc. I should of had more water.

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) I hear you there!

My goal is to drop on size but I focus on my actions (drinking more water, staying Paleo, workouts, etc). Just losing a dress size is too vague for me... Hope that helps!.

Day 2 Went to the gym this morning despite wanting to say in bed. Since I did work out now 4 days in a row, I will rest tomorrow. Leg press - 450 lbs Calf raise - 350 lbs (necessary? I think so) Deadlift - 100 lbs 15 minutes walking uphill in intervals. So far I've had bacon, cabbage, cod, and another salad, stevia sweetened chocolate but still pretty hungry at 12:33 PM...

I love what you had for dinner but I hear you on the ice cream craving. I'm trying to find a good dairy, soy, sugar, etc free alternative myself. LOL!

I just checked US Wellness Meats and they do have it! Thanks for the tips!

I do but live in a city where all of those options are already taken up - waiting lists are completely full. I will try again, this is a good reminder for me.

I need to find such a place. I end up buying from a local store...

I'm in a similar boat as you. I have some arthritis caused by Lyme disease and the last thing I want is to be told to stop...
