Ok, so I talked to a medical professional last night and then did some research online. I will NOT be challenging myself to 30-days primal. I am still, however, challenging myself to 30-days completely clean and with some form of activity every day. I invite you on this journey with me, and it begins today!
I thought by testing my body with a primal diet for 30 days, I would reap benefits of improved sleep quality, lean muscle gain and fat loss, which I believe one can obtain, but through my conversation and research, I am learning that I can do all the same without eliminating food groups and their benefits. I also learned that as I am someone with hypothyroidism, my hormones would not react well to a low-carb push, even if only for 30 days. I really should have started this research on primal/hormones before the day I wanted to start lol. Better late than never. I did start this morning and at the end of each day will share my food consuption/recipes/exercise through my blog and facebook page.
Bottom line, I will continue a 30-day challenge of healthy, wholesome, delicious food that serves my body well. I will exercise every day. I will share new and old recipes with you, and share this entire experience. 30 days doesn't seem like a long time, but when you work 6 (some weeks 7) days a week, have functions to attend, and have friends who love to do dinner and drinks, it's going to seem like an eternity. While I may now be able to have some hummus and quinoa (primal wouldn't allow that), I will not partake in eating out or alcohol. Wish me luck!!
