50 Day Paleo Challenge...

Looks like this Paleo challenge is underway beginning tomorrow.  I received an email today with some insight that I wanted to share as promised.  A few of you have asked about so I wanted to make sure you received the information.  Give it a shot...you have nothing to lose and such great things to gain.  It's tough but if you stay focused you will be successful!

Here's the email I received today:

Hey CavePeeps...

Over the next 50 days the challenge is to be as "in" as you could be... some of what I ask you to do will be easy, stuff you might have done already and had some success... and other stuff may be realllly challenging, take you out of your comfort zone and make you want to quit... however if you stick to it, dig down deep, you'll be much better off.

Here's the first challenge... Clean!

Any item that isn't considered Paleo must leave you home, car, or office space (that you control) within the next 24 hours. I want you to look into the nooks and crannies of your kitchen and toss out all the small packets of ketchup, equal, candies and gum... and of course the big stuff like the Haagen Dazs in the freezer.

Post to the Facebook Cavepage DONE so you can hold yourself accountable...

Finally - keep track of how many days you stay on track. Simply open an excel spreadsheet and write down what you did that day (I know I'm asking for a lot).

At the end of the 50 days let's see how many days you stayed "in" the challenge.


Tomorrow's SNEAK PEEK:

Fitness challenge!

Stay Strong. Stay Paleo!

Although I was really looking forward to this I am not sure if I'll be able to stick it out for 50 days. I've experienced a few challenges lately that I am really struggling with and having trouble getting passed, I'm not sure a challenge like this would be the best thing for me.  Right now I'm focusing on getting my eating back under control and considering different resources that will help me get through some things.  I'll attempt the challenge, just take it a day at a time, and see how I feel each day...I'll keep you posted on my progress and please let me know how you are doing as well.  I would love to hear about it.

  1. I'm still stuck at getting rid of gum :(
    I chew 2-3 pieces a day of EXTRA gum for several reasons.
    50 day is quite a challenge, I think you have the power to do all of these days.
    Any off day, is just a hiccup to the next Paleo day :)
    Looking forward to workout tomorrow eve, and Bible study...have missed everyone.
