Ashley's post lead to my exploring the whole9life site more, and stumbling upon the Whole30 plan. Seems Paleo to this novice. And though they say, "It's not hard," I beg to differ. I love a good challenge though, and they no-holds-barred throw down the gauntlet! My favorite line was, "Unless you physically tripped and your face landed in a box of donuts, there is no "slip". Ouch. Ended up downloading their success guide which broke everything out simply, and crystal clearly ("was that clear" ... "yes" ... "WAS THAT CLEAR" ... "crystal").

My goals for the challenge are:
1) break the sugar / carb addiction
2) retrain my taste buds to prefer real food instead of fake crap
3) sleep 8-9 hours (I tend to get only about 5/6 hours)
4) maintain hitting the box 5/6 times a week
Of course I would like to loose fat and weight while retaining muscles, but I think my focus needs to be on building healthy habits first. I like that whole30 commands you to stay off the scale. Numbers shouldn't define me or my success. Except the snatch ... and clean and jerk ... squats ... dead lift ...
3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Go!
