Sunday, June 22–Traveling and Paleo are seriously ticking me off at this point. It’s one thing to have to suffer through self selections at restaurants. I don’t expect things to be as easy as it is when I am at home with the comfort of supermarkets, kitchens and my own routines. But on travel days where air travel is concerned it goes from being a nuisance to being totally irritating. I was close to dropping some F-bombs on myself for subjecting myself to this stupidity. I could just cave for one day, but I didn’t. Instead I just slugged through and threw myself a little pity party.

By happenstance it also gave us a glimpse into the life and times of an ancient culture.
(More ...)Friday, June 20–A low key day and a very low interest meal selection for the day. A heavy breakfast, a light lunch and a pretty decent dinner combined with hanging out with some friends is one way to round out a week.

While I have been to Disney World many times, Disneyland is something that always eluded me. My partner loves both and used to work at Disneyland. I therefore was promised, and got, the entire Disneyland experience–all seventeen hours worth. I stayed surprisingly close to my Paleo protocol and got a ton of exercise while also having a lot of fun too.

(More ...)Tuesday, June 17, 2014–As I stated yesterday, I was really craving the notion of having a big salad for breakfast. Yeah, it’s bizarre but there was something about it that I found enjoyable. Yesterday’s meeting schedule made it impractical but today’s more than allowed for it. Starting the day with a huge helping of kale, cabbage, mushrooms and carrots worked beautifully to get the day started and kept me more than full through lunch time.
(More ...)While I’m not thoroughly exhausted, the perpetual yawning throughout the day got old really quick. I think I nailed down what it was, the next question is if I want to fix it or not.
(More ...)Today was a day with travel home to spend some time with my dad on Father’s Day. As such I went back to my go-to travel plans on most of my meals. As I’m finally working through my backlog of squashes I decided to crack open another one tonight and whip up a quick meal of Shrimp Marinara over spaghetti (squash).
