Holiday Detox

That's right we have joined the ranks of the post new year's dieters! What a bandwagon to jump on. Well anyhow, when I met Kyle I weighed just 100 pounds (50 pounds lighter than now and the same height!)
(I did some modeling back then)

It was not healthy but I was not trying to loose weight-the weight just didn't come on. I know-great problem to have. Until all of a sudden a switch must have been flicked in the hormone deparment and without fail pound by pound the weight crept on. At first I was SO happy! I finally had-well-a figure. ;)

Then I had to go on something called prenisone. It is a miracle drug except for on noted problem-weight gain. And you don't just gain it in the belly-you gain it in the face too.


Check out that moon face! Ugh!

Well anyhow long story short, I now carry a bit more weight than I wish to and I can't blame anything except really terrible eating habits. So I decided to make a change. My husband is a physical therapist in training and happens to know quite a bit about diet and exercise so he  recommended we go gluten-free/sugar-free otherwise known as paleo. Well for someone that has NEVER EVER had to watch what I eat... this should be interesting. We are going to chronicle what happens in a video blog we are calling "The Paleo Diaries" 

Enjoy. :)
