Day 1. How did it go?

With our first day in the books, I wanna know how did you do? My day went pretty easy. I didn't get breakfast in but I did get a salad over at Qdoba with Kev, Sean & Michelle K. I held back the tears when I passed on the cheese and sour cream, but double meat on the salads definitely make it more filling. For dinner, I hit up happy hour with Chan at fibbers on cedar and nees. Grilled artichoke, shrimp cocktail & sweet potato fries filled my stomach with happiness. And they are all half off during happy hour so the ol wallet doesn't take a big hit either. Between the two of us we had 2 artichokes, the fries, shrimp cocktail, steamed clams and a patron club soda and our bill was only $27. (patron was $7) 

So how was your day? Any temptations? Any mood swings? Punch anyone in the face?
These are garlic knots. They are amazing and definitely NOT paleo. But I like to stare. I call it paleo porn.

I kinda started off day 1 a little under the calorie amount that I need for a standard day, but I figured I was cool since I've eaten enough for 3 people the past couple weeks. I feel determined and driven and have no desire to eat something not Paleo.

Always start my day with some coffee and a protein shake (can't give those up -- no dairy, just water) I usually have a bfast of 3 eggs + turkey and some tomato slices. Dinner was roasted turkey with 1/2 sweet potato, salad and green beans. YUM!

Are split peas paleo? I made tons of split pea soup over the break and have left over, but I wasn't sure about the split peas whether they were considered a legume or a vegetable.

Keep up the strong work everyone!

I've been contemplating this whole paleo thing until I saw that sweet potatoes and almond butter were acceptable. Sign me up! Starting day 1 tomorrow after a visit to the store today.
