So the paleo diet is still underway (3 days down, 53 days left) and I have made minor adjustments since the first day.
In my first post I discussed how I was low on energy by mid-day and knew I needed to increase my carb intake. Since Monday, I've better managed an appropriate protein-to-carb-to-fat ratio and no longer feel the energy depletion. When I was on a similar diet for my body building competition last year, I felt very low on energy to the point where driving home from work at any hour was dangerous because I might fall asleep at the wheel. I've added more fruits and veggies and will be soon adding more healthy fats into the daily meals.
The weight is still where I want it to be, but I feel tighter and clothes feel looser. I know I'm burning/losing fat and building muscle again (which is good). My next weigh in won't b for another week and a half so keeping the meals up, hitting my calorie goals and managing cardio will all be important in the next several days.
