Food, Food, Food

I really wish you could calculate how many calories you burned simply by sweating because the past three days have been torture.  Friday afternoon we had a department outing at the lake where I left smelling extremely....sour...and I didn't do anything but help win an egg race.  Haha!

I went to a birthday party Saturday at a splash park.  It would have been cool if I had splashed as well.  But no.  And it was the hottest day it's been this year with 107 degree temps.  We only stayed out there about an hour but dear Lord!  Today, I've been mostly inside but you can just tell it's hot and sticky and I have no energy.

So, with this whole paleo thing, I'm doing it about 95% so far.  I love dairy and a purist doesn't really do dairy because well...Mr. Caveman didn't find a local goat and squeeze some tasty white fluid from her utter, churn it to form some sort of semi-solid food and use it to cook with.  But, dairy is also not completely off limits.  You just partake with modification.  That being said, I had a little sour cream with my Chipotle bowl last night that didn't consist of tasty, tasty cilantro brown rice or black beans.  Breakfast had maybe half a stick of real butter but in the grand scheme of it that was hardly a drop in the bucket.  And I had some sour cream and butter on my baked potato and lunch.  Oh, and some ranch dressing.  Oh, white potatoes are also a no no.  Well, mostly a no no.  Like I said, I'm not a purist.

Then there was last night.  I haven't had a drink in over a year and a half because I was pregnant and then decided to breast feed.  People told me I could occasionally drink a glass of wine but I just couldn't risk it.  Well, my son no longer nurses before bed and he was also with my in-laws while the hubster and I went to a friend's house to hang out.  I may or may not have had a margarita followed by some Malibu Black and Dr Pepper and finished with two glasses of White Zinfandel.  Yeah.  I may or may not have. :)  (I don't regret it either.  It was nice to get to enjoy some drinks after watching everyone else have fun for so long.)

But today has been a good day.  Breakfast was mostly paleo, lunch was mostly paleo and dinner will be completely paleo.  Let's see how well I keep this up.  Because I sure do love bread.
