Tribal Tuesday, Second Edition

So, here we are again. A full week of Primal...stuff. It has been fun eating my Big Ass Salad, and in fact, I've eaten a couple of the best salads I've had in a long time.

I've also had a couple of issues - weekends are my weakness. Especially ones where Jon is home. It is difficult feeding myself and then feeding him something entirely different. Especially when the man likes bacon. but it has to be with toast. Or at least something bread-y and not egg related (someone doesn't like eggs).
And then there was helping with bar-tending a wedding. And the free sugar-laden drinks that came with it. *sigh* I, apparently, am weak.

But I don't look at it too badly. Every step I take, I prove to myself that the Primal stuff makes me feel great. On days where I do it all the way I have more energy, I sleep better, I feel better. Then when I eat something like white bread, or stuff with a lot of sugar first I get really really thirsty, and then I get tired. So overall, I really do have a reason to want to continue on this way. And maybe I'm not perfect at it, but the more I do it the more I want to do it.

Robyn and I are looking at the exercising thing lately too. We have no trouble moving slowly, resting or playing for 3-5 hrs on 4 days of the week. We seem to keep getting distracted when we decide to go do our 'lift heavy things' self-assessment though. Last night we got distracted by TV. Tonight we got distracted by cleaning and playing guitar. I think tomorrow we're going as soon as I get home. Either that or I'm setting an alarm to remind us.

Oh, and just a quick life-update. Robyn and I are trading lessons. I'm teaching her pole for an hour on Fridays and she's teaching me guitar for an hour on Sundays. And apparently I have to practice 30 minutes every other day so I actually learn stuff. I'll have to come up with some kind of practice for her so we're even. *evil sister-grin*
