Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky
Not sure where this pic came from, but I just love it. This is how I feel right now.
Well, I was trying to do weekly weigh in posts on here. Lately however I am so much not obsessed with the scale that I just forget about it. I will call that a good thing.
I did weigh a day...or two...or three ago. Not sure. I weighed 172. Considering I was up to 177 after my Memorial Day Fail, that's awesome. However, I'm sure much of that gain was water weight etc, so really I'm down a half pound from where I was.
A half pound sounds like nothing, but it rocks to me. I had stalled out for over a month, I was getting stagnant and not progressing. It was beginning to affect my attitude, my drive to keep pushing hard. I was letting my eating and workouts slip because I felt discouraged. I am glad to realize that the changes I made recently work for me. Woo!
I feel very refreshed and ready to hit this whole weight loss thing right now. Feelin very ninja. That scale isn't gonna know what hit it.
My body fat monitor says 31.5% a little progress there too.
While it's true that many of us just need to stick to what we're doing and be patient; making good choices will bring always bring progress. Sometimes I believe we need to change things up. Whether the changes I made are working mentally or physically doesn't really matter to me. The fact is they are working for me right now.
Have you changed anything lately?
Ah, you have your inner Ninja awakened, excellent. Keep him busy working for you and those great weigh in posts will surely keep coming.

I'm glad to see you're recommitted, I'm recommitted too! I love the picture, it motivates me too!!!! Definitely will have to go for a jog this afternoon to make that picture a reality.
ReplyDeleteAs far as changing things up- I've been doing daily affirmations which I learned from my roommate, and they are blowing my mind right now. I love the positivity and encouragement I'm feeling from myself. It really helps to visualize yourself as a confident, happy person, which I'm sure you do and are already. But for me it's helping reshape my thinking, and that's huge to me too.
Congrats on the drop! Keep on trekkin beautiful lady!!
