This is my third blog and I would love blogging if only I had the time and patience to write more. I feel blogging can be a great motivating force. Last year I started a well intentioned series on my blog of things I want to do before I allowed myself to start dating. While the spirit of self improvement was a positive thing, it was sillying of me to think of self improvement as a list that will one day end so my real and new life will begin. However, I think self improvement is such a valuable thing and in a world where so much is at the tips of our fingers why wouldn't you spend a few minutes trying to make your life better? But just my opinion.
My newest obsession of self improvement is living a paleo lifestyle and particularly doing the Whole30. But make no mistakes, I have failed miserably on this diet before but I am a stubborn person and I will try and try till I succeed so therefore I will. Part of the reason why I will succeed eventually is because I have figured out so many things about my eating habits and why I eat the way I do. I have learned that I eat so much to make myself happy. I have learned that I want people's approval for my endeavors. All these things are not only valuable for making a healthy life style change but for understanding yourself more and being more aware.
What is the Whole30 you ask? It's a strict paleo diet for thirty days with the intent to reset our cravings and reactions to food. It is a gateway to a paleo lifestyle and you will gain back all that weight if you go back to what you were eating before. It's not to just lose weight but to start a new lifestyle and while I was on it and doing okay, I felt amazing!! However going back I felt like crap. So, I'm going start this diet all over with intent of sticking with it and this blog is to show my improvements and realizations while doing it.
I will be starting on March 1st and my last day will the thirtieth of this month and I will be blogging a little every two days. So stay tuned!
