Evening Edition (inches GONE) & Article. Really??? REALLLY????

I felt great all day. Wasn't hungry until it was time to start making dinner!!!
I'm setting my alarm in the morning to get up. I need to wake up and turn on my light or something. Being in my cave of a bedroom doesn't help. no, there are NO windows in my bedroom.

My son ate dinner tonight! He's still coughing, but not so bad. Still keeping him home till Monday, though it may drive me insane. O.o

I did my measurements today and apparently I've lost 2 inches round my waist and 2 inches around my hips. My scale hasn't gone anywhere tho...
My joints no longer ache, my intestines no longer feel bloated and I feel amazing!

NOW~ to this article. My friend posted this on her facebook wall. Apparently all she has ever heard of paleo/primal *caveman* style of eating is that they want to eat tons of fatty meat and no veggies. REALLY??? WTF??

SO~ I read the blog article. I read comments. I tried to laugh it off. BUT then I realized that this is how SO MANY People view the way of life I have chosen! I eat more veggies and VARIETY of veggies NOW than I ever did!!! I CRAVE veggies! I have to have my salad every day, I love having double servings of brightly colored and super flavorful veggies on my plate next to my super flavorful lean protein.

I dont eat grain, I shun sugar and will not eat legumes or veg oils. I DO on occasion eat dairy. Sour cream, cheese and sometimes yogurt. I chow down on coconut oil~ I get 4 tbsp a day into my gut. I love chicken and ultra low fat ground beef. I LOVE bacon. I eat it as often as I can. I also LOVE eggs, and eat those daily as well. I have the MOST energy I have EVER had in my life!!!

I dont ridicule other peoples way of eating, though I could. I could laugh at the vegans, vegetarians and other 'eaters' out there, but I honestly say "to each their own" if that's what makes you healthy and feel good, then please!! Be by guest!!! I wont tell you that you are eating wrong, Don't tell me that what I eat is wrong. I'm not eating my neighborhood kids!!!!
I will let you know my reasons behind why I eat the way I do, and site a bit of science when it comes to how inflammatory grains are to my digestive tract...

Now~ I'm going to finish eating my red cabbage with bacon crumbles and paleo orange chicken~ my salad with bright red raw peppers was SUPER tasty!
