I am finally starting to feel 'sick' from the diet - they said it would happen. My body is missing all the extra sugar that I used to eat so now I feel like I have the flu (no energy, food has no taste etc).. Hopefully it will last for only a few days. Good news is I am clearly loosing weight! The scale tells me and people are telling me too. It feels great =)

Dan rewarded me for my first week of Paleo and grilled a good grass-fed filet mignon. I have the best hubby =)

Today was my first day at the restaurant after starting the Paleo. I brought my homemade Paleo muffins and some fruit for breakfast and also some of my almond milk. Lunch was hard because everybody had amazing Chimichanga's, while I only had a salad. So an hour later I was starving to death, but a nice guy who works in the kitchen made fajitas for me. Good thing today is my last day at the resort - I don't work until this Winter!
I ran out of my Paleo Muffins!! I have to bake more of them!! =)
