Positive Thinking

On Monday I'm starting a 100% HARDCORE paleo challenge for the 30 days leading up to Thanksgiving. Coach Em intentionally scheduled it to coincide with Halloween. I'm trying to keep a positive outlook about it; seeing it as another way to strengthen myself physically and mentally, and potentially change my life. I don't want to deafet myself before I even begin with negative thoughts. But at the same time, I don't want to discount or ignore how difficult it will be, for me more so than many of the other gym members taking part. I'm trying to find a balance between acknowledging those feelings and preparing for that part of the battle (know thy enemy), without dweling on them. I'm going to try to keep a food diary on here. Whatever happens, I definitely apreciate any help I can get. Tips and tricks, encouragement, prayer, recipes, anything you have to offer.

It's specifically hard because having been in Alaska all summer, I havent been in the habit of working out. I was trying to continue whie I was up there, but it was pretty much just a major fail. I just got back, haven't even started working out yet, and now I'm adding this ontop of everything.

Here we go...
