Day 30: The End

We have reached the end. I can't believe how quickly one month has flown by. Our 30 day challenge is over. I can't say we were 100% perfect, in fact there were a few days we ate sushi, thai food and maybe I had a few jelly beans the other day. However when we were on track we felt great, and we will continue to eat healthy. 

Some days were hard and definitely challenge to take the time to cook. Towards the end of the challenge I found the food was better tasting because I got the hang of the paleo thing. It takes some creativity but the more you practice the better the food gets. There were a few recipes that I would never make again.
