Did someone say "DIET"?  Don't panic! Don't go eating pizza and ice cream till you can't move! RELAX.  I am not going to make you count your calories, I am not going to make you drink only liquids, nor am I going to make you fast.  What I am going to do is make you feel, look and perform better by fueling your body with what it was meant to be fueled with.  You wouldn't put water in your automobile's gasoline tank, would you?  Your body is no different.  There are foods your body performs better off of and there are foods that can hurt your body.  

So, what exactly is Paleo and why does it work?  Well, on Saturday Coach Josh and I, will answer all your questions at the Paleo Challenge Seminar at 11:30am (immediately following the Keiki Class at 11:00am).  Not only will we give you an informational packet full of wisdom about this wonderful nutritional plan, but we will talk you through shopping lists and some easy to make recipes that taste great!  Even if you are on the fence about this 30-day challenge, I suggest you come hear us out.  If you already know you want to sign-up, then START your FOOD LOG/JOURNAL today!  I want to know everything you are eating, Paleo or not Paleo.  The more descriptive the better!  Don't throw this task to the side.  Why? Because, your food journal will help the coaches better understand what your eating habits are like and we will be able to provide you with more tips and solutions.
