Tomorrow is the day that everyone has been waiting for...or dreading. If you're worried about staying on track food wise, the easiest way is not to have access to any temptations. Get rid of any bread, cookies, leftover Easter candy, and take out of view and hide your children's gummy vitamins (at about week two right before the carb flu is finished, these too will become tempting and start to look like a hot fudge sundae) (this has happened, don't be ashamed). I'm not saying to deprive your children of cookies or occasional candy (that would just be cruel), but don't be afraid to begin to cook Paleo for your whole family. (you don't even have to tell them, and they probably won't even notice) For instance, if I am to survive this challenge I will need to follow Mr Softee into a dark alley and make sure his music never haunts my neighborhood again.
At the moment most of you are probably partaking in your last meal. I know Tommy does not condone this behavior, but it's something everyone feels like they have to do before each challenge starts. (basically Tom's just in denial that he has no control over any of us) So eat that spaghetti and garlic bread or slice of chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. You may even not even feel the need to eat that ice cream sundae or even be into ice cream anymore (this will happen, i promise), but you may still feel like you need it, so you should probably just eat it. Here's a recipe to try for tonight.
The Last Supper
Good luck everyone and remember your fish oil tomorrow. And remember if you fall off a day, its okay (the world probably won't end) just get back at it the next day. For the challenge everyone will post their points on the post for the day. Tomorrow i will write up another post and by the end of the day, you can comment will your points and why you lost the points that you did. This is the fourth (i think) challenge that Tom has done so far and I have yet to stay on track past the two week mark, regardless of the awesome results I see everyone end with, challenge after challenge. I give all of you permission to beat me if suddenly I just stop posting or start dropping consecutive 3's and 2's.
Tips and Tricks
A few tips and tricks for starting the challenge. A few good ones, use your peers. This blog is for everyone. Don't be afraid to tell some one they're doing a good job or to help them back up after a bad weekend. (the same as we would during a wod at the gym) The second good point is that you can still eat out.(just make good choices) We will talk some about that in a few posts.
