Good Evening!!!
If you read yesterdays late night post, then you would have seen that I have decided to start the Paleo diet. I mentioned that I would be needing to get organized first and that I would start on Monday, April 8 once I have figured out my plan.

I know what you're thinking, "what?! no schedule?" Hold on, hold on, let me explain why I, "Mrs. Planner" choose not to do a weekly schedule.Here's why: I know myself {thank goodness-hehe}, and I know that on a Monday night when I'm packing for the rest of the week, it might sound good but come the rest of the week, it won't sound good anymore. So I decided to just go with the flow. I will stick to these but I'm not going to choose what I will and will not eat on certain days. I will probably make Monday-Wednesdays all-day food on Sunday and make Thursday-Saturdays all-day food on Wednesday night, that way I will have time to change my mind rather than trying to force myself to eat something I don't really want.
Well, that about does it for me! I'm going to spend tonight eating a hamburger so that I can get one last "sha-bang!" in before I start my diet.
If you would like to join me, feel free to borrow my list and be sure to let me know when you are starting your journey and what your goal is!
Good Luck to you and God Bless
