Confession Time

My trips to the grocery have not been going the way they should. I've been sucked into the abyss of temptation and sin. May the primal gods forgive me;)

For the past couple weeks I've been sinning in the worst ways when it comes to primal. I've been eating pizza, drinking chocolate milk, gorging on chocolate bars and chips, and even partaking of the evil fast food. I have no good excuses, not really. I could argue that it's cheaper to eat junk than it is to eat clean, but that's nothing more than an excuse. I don't want to do it, but it's as if there is some inner voice urging me on and telling me it's no big deal, after all I haven't put any weight back

on. Actually it might be the issue of weight that has pushed me in this direction. You see, my weight has been stalled for several weeks now and no matter what I do, it doesn't budge, so this makes sinning even easier. It seems that no matter what I eat, the weight just stays the same, no gain, no loss

There are bigger issues than weight this time around though. Bodily functions that were long dormant have returned with a vengeance. This is actually bothering me more than the weight stall right now. No one wants to walk around in a cloud of gas or stress over pimples at my age:( It seems to be having and effect on my sleep patterns too. I'm having trouble falling asleep easily and I find myself waking up several times in the night. All this is contributing to my less than friendly moods of late. It's tough to be a happy mom when your tired, gassy, and covered in zits.

Thankfully there is an easy solution to this situation. It's called willpower and a clean diet. So today I'm recommitting to the primal lifestyle and I'm cleaning up my diet once again. It won't be easy, especially since I'm in no mood to cook lately, but my health is more important. In anticipation of this change for the better, I have stocked up on my favorite cuts of meat from the butcher and I'm going to avoid the gas stations and grocery stores this week. Out of sight, out of mind, right?

Wish me luck!
