Experimenting

Ok, so I'm going to experiment with a low-carb version of Paleo. I've lost the focus and control that I had a couple of months ago, and it's obvious that I'm not losing fat at the moment. I toyed with the idea of doing a Whole30, but I think that I've been relying on too much fruit and too many sweet potatoes for a Whole30 to be meaningful. I need some sort of structure to keep me accountable. And, I've had success with limiting carbs in the past, but that was not while working within a paleo framework. So, I'm beginning a 40 day low-carb paleo experiment (basically until I take a week vacation at the end of May).

The plan: minimal carbs, only coming from spinach, broccoli, tomatoes and avocadoes (subject to modification). No sugar, no fruit, no larabars, no nuts, no dairy (except a little butter), and absolutely no alcohol. Of course, as much meat and eggs as I want.

The goal: weigh 158lbs or less (which would be my lowest since high school!)
