Paleo fail. :(

We had a good friend over last night and I dropped my self-imposed Paleo restrictions so I could eat some fresh, hand-crafted brats off the grill. They were so delicious! Granted, these brats were hand-crafted by a German butcher and did not have any nasty processed crap in them, but I had bread and beer.

This morning when I woke up I just felt so nasty and my body just felt weak. I did my workout anyway and it was so difficult. Tonight, I'm feeling infinitely better and am looking forward to being back on track. I am not feeling depressed or that I let myself down as I did make a conscious decision to go off Paleo so I could enjoy time with a good buddy I'd not seen in five or six years. We had a wonderful visit and it was cool to introduce my wife and family to him.

I am not doing Paleo solely to lose weight. I want to make that crystal clear. I am doing it to be healthy, live the way we were meant, to cleanse my body, and to gain the natural physique our bodies were meant to have, and to make sure I'm around a long time for my children. Yes, I will lose weight (and have in just a few days) and that's wonderful, but I am not obsessed with my body as much as I am concerned about my health and well-being. Here's to great times ahead!
