The WLC ended in November and for the most part, I've continued eating Paleo. Mind you, I'm not as strict as I was. I don't think twice before I eat a chicken salad from El Pollo Loco, and I don't question our Sunday diner about what kind of beef is used in their sirloin patty and eggs. But I do try to follow the basic fundamentals on a daily basis. The few times I've "cheated" with ice cream or a handful of goldfish my body completely rejects (and that's the nice way of phrasing it) the dairy/gluten. It's as if my body doesn't know how to process this foreign food and does whatever it can to get rid of it.
I've come to the decision that it's just not worth it. My body functions better and is way happier when I eat clean. I've also found that my workouts and runs are dramatically better when I've only put Paleo food into my body.
The WLC is beginning again in 3 weeks.. I can't decide if I want to participate again. I was so discouraged the last time with my final workout and weight loss that I'm not sure if I want to put myself through the pressure again. On the other hand, I loved the accountability that the WLC had to offer. It almost felt like an "atta girl" every time I logged in.
A few more weeks to decide... Twin????
