PALEO CHALLENGE HULK SMASH

So I'm doing the Whole30 Challenge. It's Paleo, but stricter. No cheat days. No sneaking in ingredients. No making fake "junk food" out of Whole30-approved ingredients. It's intense. I've only been doing The Challenge for 4 days now, but I've already noticed some changes in my body and attitude, so I thought it would be fun to keep a log of daily feels and publish it when I'm finished with The Challenge, or quit in a fit of rage and eat 13 pounds of chocolate in one sitting, whichever happens first.

In the meantime, I encourage you to check out The Challenge.

I don't necessarily agree with the attitude that all grains and legumes are evil monkey demons, but I do think that we eat more carbs from grains than we really need. I also believe that we eat WAY too much sugar (myself included). I decided to do the challenge when I realized I was starting to crave sugary things... something I've never really craved in my life. It was time to stop, collaborate, and listen.

Wish me luck. It's been a weird four days so far.
