5k! That's 5000 page views. It happened yesterday. 5000!!! Amazing! Thank you so much!
In honor of this momentous occasion and in recognition of the fact that I have not been as good about Paleo lately as I ought to be, I've decided to start Whole 30. I've toyed with this idea before, and I had intended to start Whole 30 right after my birthday (back in August), but I kept finding excuses to postpone it. I was going out of town with my parents and my mom wanted to do wine tasting, it was my friend's birthday, I was stressed at work. I had lots of excuses.
So today when I was reading a bit of It Starts with Food, by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig, I was struck by a certain passage:
Start now. Today. This minute.
I'm guessing that you, like me, can always find some reason to put off starting something. And unfortunately, you can end up putting off a really good decision for you indefinitely. I felt like this line I read was speaking directly to me. So I started right then. I'm going to be good and stay good. And re-learn how to say no to my urges and whims. On my first day, when I went out to two birthday dinners tonight, I turned down all offers of alcohol and said no to foods when I didn't think that ALL of the ingredients would be Whole 30.
What you can take away from this is that it's going to be a very sober Thanksgiving..
