Day 26

The best way to prepare for life is to begin to live. - Elbert Hubbard

We're in the home stretch! Sorry for the delay between posts, it's been a busy couple of days! I promise I'll make up for it today, because I have some pictures to go along with my normal blog. Today was my birthday, so Megan went above and beyond to make sure that I was able to celebrate it like any other. She made me a paleo carrot cake and a paleo pizza, which you can see pictures of above. The carrot cake definitely isn't as good as the original, but for being pretty healthy, it definitely does the trick! Same with the pizza, we had to custom make the pizza crust, and then there is no cheese allowed, but I think we put every veggie and lean meat we could find on there, it ended up being a very big pizza.

If anyone wants the recipes for the above, let me know. Here is my lineup for the day:

Breakfast

2 Small Egg White Omelettes with turkey bacon, turkey sausage, spinach, mushrooms, and onions and then topped with salsa

Lunch (pictured above)

Paleo Pizza Crust

Paleo Pizza Sauce

Topped with Onions, Spinach, Mushrooms, Turkey Sausage, Chicken, and Avocado

Snack

Whole Foods Dried Apple with Cinnamon and a scoop of natural Cashew Butter

Dinner

2 Turkey Burgers topped with Onions, Spinach and Mushrooms and Salsa

Dessert (pictured above)

Paleo Carrot Cake

Thanks again for following, we are getting down to the very end. Just an update on my weight loss, I am now down to 283 as of this morning. Not only is this a 22 pound weight loss while on the Paleo Challenge, but it also marks my official 50 pound weight loss! I am pretty pumped about this, and I really believe this will be a life change for me. I went from eating like crap and barely working out, to now eating very healthy and working out 6 days a week! Can't beat that!
