Things that make me go hmmm..

I have come to the realization that I am a sugar and processed carb junkie. Really no different than an alcoholic. Let's just say that I am not the best me today! Day four of no sugar or processed carbs and very, very tired yet experiencing insomnia, almost no patience and on the verge of tears, feel depressed and completely unmotivated to do anything!

The thing that puzzles me is why I keep falling off the wagon. Why do I keep repeating this vicious cycle.... I feel phenomenal when I eat paleo. Tons of energy, no afternoon burnout and sleep awesome. Then I have a cheat day and all hell breaks loose! I spiral out of control and gain a ton of weight. As soon as I reintroduce myself to strict paleo... I detox the crap and then am on the upswing of feeling better.. I am challenging myself to stay committed and focused and with God's help get out of this vicious cycle. I CAN'T keep doing this to myself!

Goals:
1. Write down everything that goes in my mouth.
2. Live strict Paleo for the next 90 days.
