"Paleo People"

Sounds like a Sci-Fi movie if you ask me but to some that is what we are...Paleo People! We are the perfect character in a good sci-fi movie or novel. You know what I am talking about...seen as odd, different, changing before your very eyes, things just start to "happen" to our stomachs like in the movie Aliens (except it happens to us after we eat something that we haven't had in weeks, months....). We cook coconut oil and ghee-the word ghee alone is ODD! You get the picture right?

Well, now that I have completed the 60 Day Performance Nutrition Experience, the decisions are up to  me as to what I eat daily. Honestly life and the way I am eating hasn't changed much...why? Because I LIKE THE FOOD & I LIKE THE WAY I FEEL! And, when I eat some (not all!) of the non-paleo food my stomach and body start to throw a tantrum inside me like a 2 year old that didn't get his way. Crazy! But seriously, I really...I mean REALLY like the food...we are eating so well. I am making new stuff all the time and today my daughter said, "Mom, I realized that healthy eating tastes good." Fantastic...now if we can just get her to embrace the fruits and veggies that go along with the meats! You can keep praying with me about this. =)

Tonight I made a new recipe from multiplydelicious.com! Oh my stars! Banana Cinnamon Bun Muffins...my house smells amazing and I can hardly wait to enjoy them in the morning with my coffee!!! So I guess what I am trying to say in all this is...being a seen as Paleo People works for me. And I think it works for my family and others that have come for dinner over the past several months (sometimes I don't even tell them the food is Paleo, shhhhh!). =)
