One week into Paleo, got to say, the first 5 days I really craved bread and sweets! I have also been weaning myself off coffee, tomorrow is the last cup, a very weak one. Hope the headaches don't come. I am hoping that will help with stress/cortisol/adrenals etc.
I am in the midst of "cooking Saturday". Have my breakfast (turkey and small amount of yams) for two weeks in the freezer, lunches almost done (chicken and broccoli). Tonight I will make my dinners, quiche: egg whites/broccoli/zucchini/roasted diced tomatoes. Last week I made this and froze portions. It was okay, but I was reheating it in micro wave which made the eggs a bit rubbery, so I switched it to dinner where I can heat it up in the oven, huge difference!
Today a 20 minute ride on the bike and some wall ball squats. I have lost so much fitness, I do hope it will come back relatively fast. Ironman Championship on the PC as I prep and cook. Monday it is back to getting to bed at 8:30 and getting up at 3:30 to hit the gym before work. I am going to push the weights heavier and increase the intensity of the cardio and lessen the duration. I am going to swim at least once a week, because, well, I miss it!
Tomorrow, I am going to set some goals for races for 2013. Yahoo!

Wow, you are getting organized! Good for you!! I know that I do a lot better when I get my food done for the week.
I can't believe you get up at 330a to go to the gym. That is freakin' awesome!
Systems!
How excitng, keep us posted Duane!
you are off to a flying start!
So proud of you! Way to go! Great way to be flexible with your meals. Don't be afraid of the egg yolks. I really love the "cook-up" concept on the weekend - makes taking what you need to go for the week a lot easier.
Keep up the great work!
Aloha,
