How old am I? I am "got up this morning, sneezed and pulled a muscle" old.
Seriously, this is too much.
In response to this old age thing that is starting to annoy me I'm going back to the Paleo diet I was on for a short time a few years ago. It's been three days so far, today is day four, and I feel OK, other than pulling a muscle just sneezing. :-) So far I'm down 5 pounds and generally feel pretty good. Last time I tried this I did it sort of halfway, I never was really serious about it and I also did not pay attention to the lab results that told me to avoid:
Gluten
Dairy
Eggs
I said OK about the Gluten, for a while, but the cheese and the eggs? NO WAY! This time around I'm going all in, but I'm not thinking so much about what I can't have as just focusing on making what I can have taste good.
I can eat any meats, fish, shellfish, fruits and vegetables. I'm not having any grains or legumes (beans), including rice and corn which are technically "gluten free" grains. Also out is anything that comes in a box. If it's not cut from a dead animal or a part of a plant I'm not touching it. :-)
I am also going to be doing some interval exercises, squats, walking, push ups, light weights and such as well.
I'll update my feelings about this periodically, so far I notice no urge to snack and have not been hungry much at all.

Today Maximus took Momo for a walk around the block by himself for the first time. He's 9 years old so I guess he can go outside on his own now. :-)
