So This is a TMI post, but it is important and huge aspect of paleo for me. As a women I know people understand the pain that our lovely period brings. Oy! I've always have had this issue to the point where I'm double over in pain in the middle of work shifts. I usually CRAVE like super crave soda and all those things. Well this time that has been totally different. I went from usually taking 3 doses of 4 advil for 2 days to not having ANY NONE NADA ZIPO. AHHHH I didn't crave any soda and I barely had any mood swings... just a little, but that may have been life and not my hormones. I would recommend paleo just for these benefits, forget the weight lost, the energy... to experience the period change is worth it all. I don't need milk, grains, and what not to feel as amazing as I do right now. This became the point where I can say my life was changed by paleo. Seriously people it has been completely changed. In less than a month, I have go from a large t shirt being tight to a medium t shirt being a little loose. I have gone from barely doing 10 burpees to doing 50... (ok it took a long time, but I still did it and I got some sexy knee bruises too) from barely making it thru 1min planks to doing it and doing it strong and accidentally adding 40secs. To having major issues focusing to focusing better, at least I can make it thru a work out and classes... I probably would have more success with my focus and my adhd if I took out my coffee, which I need to cut more of that out. And honestly most important to me right now and probably much to the excitement of my friends and family is that I am not having the crazy mood swings that my period led to and I'm not in as much pain... Sorry Tori I can't text you to tell you that my ovaries hurt... they just don't hurt as much now. I'm not saying I wasn't in any pain, but I was in a little pain, but I wouldn't even call it that. I would just call it discomfort and honestly that wasn't the worst part, the worst part was the insane mood swings and I'm not talking about just crying or getting a little upset, I'm talking about EXTREME mood swings... Talk to my mom or Julie or any of my super close friends. I could go from goofing around to having a full blown melt down all because my hormones were going crazy.
I feel so good about things right now. I can't believe how much food can change your life. I know some people around me are still having issues with what I eat and how much of different things I eat, but seriously I'm becoming living proof that this works! That there is no need for grains, dairy, and all those crazy things that the government has forced on us.
So where things go from here... Well I still have a week and a day of the 30days, but I will not change from this plan. But I am going to learn to ride a bike (yea some how I forgot... or something...) I'm getting my license soon (I WANT MY SCOOTER BACK GRRRRRR If you want to go confront someone with me let me know!!! We can take a field trip together) getting my jeep (COME ON MOM!!!) Of course I will be posting more and more... sexy knee bruises anyone? And I want to learn to garden... I've always had a black thumb, but hey I always thought I would be fat with crazy mood swings... things change easily I'm learning.
Ohhh and the other GREAT thing I can cook things I NEVER thought I could or would. Like my amazing chuck roast from this weekend! Mom loved it! Julie loved my pork loin! MMM Food!!! MEAT!
Ok Time to go make a movie (A thriller... when did I ever do this!!!)
