Great comments yesterday! I totally agree with all of you. For me - I will indulge once in a while - but not on crap. A peice of really dark chocolate, or a glass of good wine - but definitely will NOT be adding any kind of grains or dairy back into my diet...it's just not worth it for me.
I have done alot of reading about how these foods impact your body - which I think is a big part of why I will not eat then anymore. They are inflammatory. I would really encourage you guys to read about it too - everyone takes something different from these books:
Robb Wolf's book is great - definitely a little science heavy - but he is an expert and it's really eye opening: http://www.amazon.ca/Paleo-Solution-Robb-Wolf/dp/0982565844/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327683449&sr=8-1
Mark Sisson is kind of a guru when it comes to paleo - this book is an easy read and is actually really entertaining - I loved it: http://www.amazon.ca/Primal-Blueprint-Reprogram-effortless-boundless/dp/0982207786/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1327683524&sr=1-5
There are also many great cookbooks out there! I will share those tomorrow :)

I went to the Team Canada Women's Olympic qualifier game tonight (we won!!!). I brought almonds with me for a snack, and drank a bottle of water.
Thanks for the reading suggestions, I'm definitely going to check these out! I'm also going to try the roasted eggplant spread, as well as the hash this weekend (Sunday brunch!). Looking forward to it :)
