This past weekend was rough to say I cheated would be truth but maybe even an understatement. I paid for it though. Monday morning I was not feeling my best! Anyway, after weighing today I'm still at 266 maintaining is better than gaining. However that is not my goal. I could say I am going to try and up the activity this week but if I said try then I'd have an out. So, I'm going to up the activity this week and hopefully with better eating (no cheating) I will see some results on the scale next Wednesday.
I have been trying to find some easier (less expensive) meals for the menu this week and I haven't been that successful. I am going to try to go with some of what we already have and two new recipes. I found a blog that has almost daily updates and at least weekly recipes for Paleo dieters.
PaleOMG.com
I am excited to try a couple of the recipes she has on the site, and there are lots of them! She even posts recipes that use leftover ingredients. Here's a few I'd like to try (the first one is not on the menu this week due to cost).

The pasta is actually spaghetti squash. It sounds really yummy, but the avacado oil is too pricey for our budget this week.

I want to try and double this recipe and freeze some of the waffles for breakfast later in the week. I am getting a little tired of eggs every morning, even though the taste of the farm fresh eggs are so much better than the white eggs at the grocery store.

easy and quick and will help curb the craving for mexican food...well kind of I still want some espinaca! taco salads are my staple, because they are so quick and easy to put together.
I will also be doing the African curry chicken again, since we still have some coconut milk I need to use up. I am going to try putting a little less coconut milk in it this time to see if it will come out a little less soupy. It was even better the next day after the spices sat. I am also going to have some chicken tenders set aside for the baked paleo chicken tenders we like so well. They are also super easy to make and really quick.
