Paleo challenge day 11 -Botocamp video!

Runyon Canyon Bootcamp promo video..thanks Michelle!

It has been 3 days since I slipped into the world of refined carbs and I finally feel stabilized.  For me, stabilized means that my cravings for sweets are low and my appetite for real food high.  When I wake up hungry for coffee and scrambled eggs with green veges I know I am living right!

Rehabbing my upper back is going well.  I would say I am at about 35% at the moment.  It is still quite painful when I put more than 10 pounds in my left hand and try to extend it forward but I am definitely improving.  I especially notice improvements when I sleep - the first 10 days were brutal since I toss and turn often and kept aggravating my injury.  Last night I finally made it through the night without any pain.  Sticking with my rehab/workouts that consist of rigorous hiking up The Ridge and rehab exercises for my upper back as I walk down the hill. 

I always drink 2 cups of water for evey cup of coffee I drink..  Looks like this morning I will be drinking about 6 cups of water since I am already on my 3rd cup of joe! 
3 scrambled eggs, heavy on the baby spinach and onions.
Big Salad!  I'm always hungry when I make these salads and ate more than half of it before I forgot to take a pic.  Baby spinach, carrots, tomatoes, left over fried chicken and a tbsp of BBQ sauce.
I am still drinking 1-2 protein shakes a day but am trying to cut back.  I love the convenience of protein shakes (and the sweet taste!) but I feel like nothing compares to real actual whole food!
