My "tiny" cheese tray
As you can see this one treat turned into 3 treats because I keep making more cheese plates with all the extras. I just had a mini one this afternoon. I must be stopped! So I am beginning "Operation Tight Abs" today.
This means 3 things for me:
1. No more cheese trays or excess cheese- only small amounts of cheese 1 or 2 times a week
2. No more wine on the weekdays- and only one night on the weekend
3. SUGAR CUT DOWN in general
This new regiment will go into full effect starting now. I have been doing the intermittent fasting with Matt- and I actually really like it. I am usually not super hungry in the mornings anyway so waiting until 1 or 2 in the afternoon for the first meal is pretty easy. I have noticed a decrease in my appetite. Also- if you know me you know I can be a little dramatic sometimes, and I used to get real dramatic when I was hungry. I would say things like, "OH myy gaawwdddd I am going to DIE if I don't eat something like rigghhhtt noooowww!!" or "PLeasseee feed me I am so hungryy!!! It is killing me!!" But now that I have been trying this new intermittent fasting thing my cravings for food are far less severe which in turn makes me far less dramatic and obnoxious when I am hungry. And that is good for everyone :) But back to Paleo for this week.
Monday Night Dinner- Turkey Cabbage (click for recipe) Which let me add was very difficult to make due to these:
We have been having a lot of eggs and chicken sausage for lunch. Protein shakes before WOD's.
We also had a really fun party at our CrossFit box this past weekend. Our friends have started an awesome catering company and they made DELICIOUS burgers

Speaking of burgers- Matt and I went and played rugby tonight with some of the members of Crown City and it was a lot of fun- but we were STARVING. So we headed to Big Daddy's to get lettuce wrapped burgers and sweet potato fries- they were bomb. Yes, I just used the word bomb.
Tomorrow I am going to attempt to cook some steaks in the crock pot- so I am off to search for recipes.
I will add a good recipe if I can find one!
