What a weekend!

Hello!! So let me tell you it's just amazing to have the hubby back home! :) Such a happy woman right now! I am now complete! It's nice to just snuggle on the coach and watch tv with him.
   In terms of the weekend, it was awesome! I had a dinner Friday night with some fab friends from church at this restaurant I love and managed to stay on the paleo way of eating except when they brought out free desserts (shameful I know) and I did have some nibs of what they brought out. Well, moving on and learning from that. I had still a fun time with lots of laughs with these girls. I would say they had fun too. :)
So grateful to her for all the paleo knowledge I have learned!
   Since, I have a big blister on the bottom of my foot I couldn't run Saturday, but instead managed to catch up on laundry and run errands for the house. Saturday evening I went to the home of the owners of the crossfit gym I went to before to find out who the winner was of the paleo challenge and it turned out to be Justin this guy that was a huge skeptic about paleo (yes even worse than me) and decided to take it on and became a total believer! He lost about 25lbs in these 6 weeks..Good for him! :) Marcy the  big brains on Paleo gave a speech about each person that did the challenge and little highlights of things that stuck with her about each us. It really touched me to hear everyone's stories and how it not only helped them improve their performance in the gym, but as well in their personal lives and helped their family and friends get on the right track with their health. There was quite of bit of sniffles in the room that night. It's amazing that once you take on eating paleo and people hear about it and see how it affects you..you have others asking you how to get on board and to help them. It's a great feeling when others start making the change as well. Last night the hubby and I were seeing how our fb feed how lots of our friends are posting their paleo/low carb dinners and it's great to know many are taking a good direction with their health and the way they look at food. Eating paleo definitely helps me not to snack so much less. I swear before I felt I needed to eat every 2hrs a bit of something, but that is not what I should of been doing. I needed my body to learn to burn fat without me shoving something in my mouth every hour.


Hubby approved!
  This week is going to be a lot of cleaning out things we don't need and getting ready for the movers next week. As well, the hubs and I are incorporating some crossfit WODs at the base gym. Hope we can motivate ourselves to get through these WODs well. :) Well not much else to update, but check out this photo of my lovely blueberry lemon muffins and salmon cakes I made yum! Later everyone!
