Weigh-in Wednesday

So Wednesday is the day of the week that I weigh-in. I used to weigh every morning, but measuring incremental change like that is a recipe for neurosis. Also, since Beeki and I enjoy watching The Biggest Loser on Tuesday nights, it seems to sync well. Thus, every Wednesday morning I get up and head to the scale. (Then I imagine Allie from TBL saying, "Your weight is...," followed by a beeping sound and random numbers flashing on the display.)

So last week I dropped another pound and a half. That makes a total of 17 lbs. down since going primal five and a half weeks ago. Woo hoo! And it's been really easy and comfortable. I haven't been hungry, I haven't had energy swings, I've learned to cook well, I've eaten a variety of foods, and I haven't been stressed about the process in the least.

I can't say enough about how good I feel since dropping grains and refined sugars. Going primal is the best diet-related decision I've ever made. I can sustain this happily and healthily for a lifetime. And that's what I've been looking for. I haven't been interested in quick-fixes or short-term solutions. I've been looking for a better way to live. And here it is!

Have a good week!
