Time to ReCommit to Being Primal

Let me be honest for a moment. Even though I still "consider" myself Primal, it's been a long time since I have fully committed to it.  Heck, its been a long time since I have even been committed to the 80/20 rule of being Primal.  I have the usual excuses as everyone who falls off of the healthy bandwagon:

• Time


• Convenience


• Holiday's


• Party's


• Chocolate


• etc

Lately, though, I have started to really feel like crap. My body aches, I am bloated and gassy, and my energy levels are seriously lacking. Caffeine has had to become an all day staple in my diet.  I have also learned that gluten and dairy can seriously mess me up.

For these reasons, I need to commit back to the Primal lifestyle. I need to be a good example for my family and friends. I need to be the healthy person they all think I am. But most importantly  I just need and want to feel better.

In the past,  I have tried all of these eating styles that have allowed me to eat dirty foods

• leangains


• IIFYM


• Carb Night


• Carb Back Loading

Although all are solid and effective ways to eat while losing fat and gaining muscle, I have found that if given the option to eat cheat foods, I will eat them and much more! I am better off restricting myself to clean and healthy foods. Most of these programs can be done using healthy foods and I think that is what I need to learn to do. No more dirty foods!

It's time to take action!
