Morning readers!
It's been a few hectic weeks! Work has been very busy with after hours events, snacks from Trader Joe's, eating at my bosses house, dinners out with friends and my love, and some booze thrown in there.
I'm in the throws of my life and I keep thinking "oh tomorrow I'll eat better than today" and it seems that I'm totally doing my own version of Paleo, per usual, but it's becoming less and less Paleo and more and more gluten free because it's easier. Next week I leave for a conference and I'm starting to think ahead in terms of bringing food and I'm turning to my Paleo cookbooks.
I'll post up what I decide to make but I did buy "whole me clusters" to bring for a snack. I tried to purchase some whole 30 approved packs but for some reason the website didn't accept my card...odd. I think I'm going to go to whole foods this weekend or order from Steve's Paleo Goods. This whole travel thing to states that I don't actually know very well is a little concerning and I know my stomach and even if I break my routine for a few days, I'll have a terrible tummy. OMG COFFEE, how are we going to make that work?! UGH. In Alabama I'll deal but in New Orleans, I will search for coffee and almond milk haha. Thankfully the first trip is short.
OMG I go to Austin in April for PaleoFX and I am so beyond excited! It's going to be so much fun for me. My friend from NYC is also joining me so that'll be great and a much easier space for me to eat because Picnik is near by and Austin, for some reason, is a super Paleo friendly place!!!
So travel is my current dilemma and I'm trying to be proactive rather than suffer the bloat and tummy ache later.

Past few posts!
Greetings all,
My last two non-Paleo, exercising blogs got so much attention! Thanks :)
It seems you all are interested more in how eating effects my life and not so much my workouts. Which is totally good!!!
I've been super busy at work and today is my first day off in over a week. It's nice to think about because I'm thinking maybe just some workout and hang out are in order! Maybe I'll go look at an apartment...It's such an odd feeling knowing I do not have to go into the office or see anyone from work today. It's also nice to relax. A big part of Paleo is making sure you can eat and sleep and relax enough. I feel like I haven't been able to relax enough. I have been go go going since January 12th and I am excited about today's potential to relax!

Food and travel
I have two up coming trips in March that I'm starting to worry about in terms of food....the first is to Alabama.....yup....so I need to pack FOOD. Yesterday, I was at a conference and brought a lunch bag full of goodies I could eat. It was rough because I knew the options would be Udi's gluten free bread and meat...not really what I wanted to eat. So I ate the meat off the sandwich and dug into my bag.
My trip in March is going to be 3 days, two of which are conference and 1 travel. I'm going to need FOOOOOOOOD. It's weird to think I have to plan for my food rather than worry about the clothes I'll bring but food is more important :D
The other trip in March is to New Orleans. That's another one where FOOD will be my top priority I think. I will be gone for a significant amount of time and will need to figure out how to get the food that makes me feel good rather than makes me feel crappy. Then if I happen to have my period for either of those two, I'm screwed. But I'll start planning to switch my diet up more the two weeks before my period.
I'm thinking of buying stuff online like RX bars, whole me cereal, jerky, Pete's Paleo goodies and other things that I can stuff into my bag and eat in an emergency. Fruit is always easy, as is veggies but I'm not sure what kind of protein will be accessible. NOLA is a little harder because everything is fried--from what I remember and I only get a certain amount of money to eat :D So my emergency stash might be something I dig into more often than not.
Work out note:
I have Pilates later today and I'm excited because my trainer has started to do cool things with me and today she's taking pictures for their website which means I'll have some photos I can post here! I'm super excited to show you all my "intermediate" moves! She's been having me do more and more cool things that require different muscles and I'm so excited to have some evidence!
