Master Eaters!!

I preach Paleo eating to everyone I come in contact with. My family, my clients, my friends, random people I don't know. I think about healthy food and what I'm going to be consuming FAR too often. Ask Chaz - it's quite the topic of conversation when we are together. I'm constantly trying to find new recipes - check out paleomg.com. My new favorite blog - thanks Paige! I have a rule that EVERY meal has to have something green in it and you'd think I had children the way that I have random healthy snacks packed in my purse and car. I even requested a paleo birthday cake. Well, the past 6 weeks (since finding out about qualifying for Regionals), I've been even more of a Nazi about what I was eating. Sorry if I was annoying to anyone I came in contact with - I'm a black and white kind of person...I was ALL IN on the healthy eating until we got back from West Palm beach.

Last night the paleo walls came crumbling down. I've been talking and talking and talking about wanting to eat pizza. It finally happened last night. Chaz and I decided to go to Mellow Mushroom for my first official "eat like a fat kid" meal. We ordered the Mega-Veggie (minus a few things I hate...in particular, olives). ALL of this was on the pizza - mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, green peppers, mushrooms, onions, roma tomatoes, broccoli, feta, banana peppers, and artichoke hearts. THEN we added pepperoni AND sausage. When our waitress delivered our pizza she said she was jealous of our pizza concoction. We told her we planned to eat the whole thing and she laughed - could she not hear the inner fat woman screaming excitement within me??

We finished the ENTIRE pizza together. When the waitress brought us the check she laughed and said all the cooks in the back were calling us the "master eaters" because they couldn't believe those two small people just destroyed a pizza like that! IT WAS EPIC...and my stomach is STILL full 12 hours later.

Please notice - I even have on an ITF shirt...hahahahha. I promise I'm back on the paleo train today.
