Sooo, maybe paleo will do it for me

After almost a month of seeing absolutely no results while hearing my new workout partner boast about her clothes fitting better after just a week, I've decided to go paleo (possibly primal, not officially decided yet). 

I've always thought these types of diets were crazy, but after reading the reasoning behind paleo, and the things it will help with I've decided that gluten and processed anything may have been my problem all along. Brain fog, no energy, upset stomache from the oddest foods, all of this is supposedly corrected by going paleo. I personally know people who have had outstanding results with the diet (or lifestyle change, cause if it works theres no going back) and I truly hope this is what its going to take for me. 

I already eat mostly healthy, but its little things that are going to be hard to switch like my morning coffee with french vanilla creamer. It has sugar and its horribly processed, but its SOO good....and unfortunately one of those things that upsets my stomach. Unfortunately I know its the creamer because I can have coffee with just plain milk without the problems. :/ Oh well, I'd rather be skinny and healthy than fat and drinking my coffee every morning. If this doesn't work, I give. I'll be doomed to be fat for life and I'm just going to have to learn to accept it. End of story. 

So tomorrow beings my paleo journey, heres hoping this is the last new discovery. I'll post results in 30 days, because that time frame is usually what it takes to start seeing the full benefits of the diet.
