The first Paleo Potluck was OUTSTANDING! Our members make very tasty treats that included venison, elk, apples, jerky, candy and more! Thank you everyone for bringing something to share! Looking forward to the next one!

(No, the donuts aren’t Paleo. We wanted to highlight Andrew’s contribution to the mix!)

There has been a lot of talk around CF7 lately about Paleo, Zone, what you can eat, what you can’t, and how much you can eat. We all know what we should eat, but the hardest thing in the world to do is to commit to eating clean. It’s about behavior modification, which we all know boils down to “easier said than done.”

I read a statement not long ago that said, “Eating for feelings = fat; eating for fuel = fit.” You have to make a choice every day on how you fuel your body. Do you want to be fit and perform at your most optimal level? I know, I know, you are saying, “Yes, but I’m not competing in Games. It’s ok if I have a coke.” Sure it is. But did you know, if you drink just one coke a day for year, that adds an extra 15 pounds to your body? Think about it. You’ve had an olympic lift where you added an extra 10 pounds, and all of the sudden, the weight was too heavy to lift. Think about what adding 10-15 pounds does to your body…

At the end of the day, all that really matters is how you feel. Forget about the number on the scale. Forget about WOD. How does your body feel? If you feel great, you are doing what is right for you. If you don’t, tweak some things and see how you feel.

Food serving sizes – ever wonder where those come from?
