DAY 4. DAY 5.

LONG, LONG days!
I did not write down what I ate but I know I didn't eat 100% paleo, which is now making my body feel worse.
Day 4 - Yoga X (hate it!, love regular yoga but not p90x yoga) I did half of the video.
Day 5 - Did not do Kenpo X, I didn't have time to workout but I walked tons during work.

Tomorrow is Legs & Back! (Day 6.) One of my favorites workouts. I don't work tomorrow morning so I have plenty of time to get this done, and I might throw in a long walk in the afternoon.

I had a very important talk with a friend, someone I work for, and she just completed the 30 day Paleo challenge 2 days ago. She did not cheat once, she was completely faithful to her cleanse, and even went to 5 birthday parties for her kids' friends with pizza and cupcakes galore (my 2 favorite things!), and she came prepared with her almonds, apples and other clean foods. Total motivation! She lost 6 inches in her chest, 4 in her waist, 2 in her thighs, 3 in her hips and 1 inch on each arm. Amazing results! She pretty much motivated me even more and gave me wonderful ideas for having success with the Paleo eating lifestyle! Very excited and less stressed about it. Tips: She suggested having a smoothie each day with coconut milk, frozen berries and raw spinach. Always having nuts with you for on-the-go snacks, lots of meats (obviously), and always always always planning/preparing AHEAD. With that said, I will get groceries tomorrow and plan out my whole week.
