LP, thanks for texting me that WOD.
As far as getting on the paleo goes, i found the easiest way to stay on track is plan ahead an entires day meal. For example on days i have school, crossfit and work. Ill figure out what times i will be able to eat and what im going to eat the night before and it seems to make staying on alot easier.
Also i LOVE that idea at dunkin donuts! There is one right next to my school and i get my coffee there at least 2-3 times a week. How have i never thought of that?

Good Chris! I am so proud of you for making an effort to fuel your body like an athlete. Planning does help a lot. Are you coming to FGB in FF tomorrow? I sure that you could carpool with Jen and Kevin if you want.

Laur- I love the before pics. Gives me unreal motivation. As you already know I was the ice cream and sweets queen(besides Shlee) and since Paleo I’ve lost 8 lbs. and my cravings for that something sweet is slowly leaving. However when I do have that craving for ice cream I have my gluten free, soy free, dairy free, low sugar, coconut milk ice dessert- everyone try it in the Stop n Shop natural foods section!
Good luck everyone tomorrow at FGB- I would love to be there but I have a bridal party tomorrow to do for makeup.
Hope everyone is coming to my costume party!!!!!!! Tickets are coming soon

Paleo & CF buy-in: I have about 5weeks of “real” CF down and have tried to be as Paleo with my diet as possible. Results speak: I’m down 17-20lbs. I keep telling DP it has to be almost all diet, probably 80-20.

Hi Guys,
As LP knows, I have been lurking on your blog for a while. I am down at Elm City Crossfit, but go to CFM and Shoreline’s blogs for added inspiration!!! It’s hard not to take a look at all of the athletes and be encouraged!
Lauren, I have to say “thank you” for sharing your pics”. It gives me hope! I just told a friend that my son is 5 and I’m still carrying his “baby weight” which is absolutely NO EXCUSE!
I have started Paleo about 70/30 and have been going at the WOD’s (need to really get on my Endurance days) and am happy to say since the Labor day race, I am down 7.8 lbs!!!
LP from your days at Milford, your teaching skills have lent itself to great coaching skills. I have set my Kip goal for before Thanksgiving to have something from Crossfit to be “thankful” for and I just remember you spending time with me just telling me how to hang and pull my head forward and back to get it! I promise to post back when I actully get it
Regarding FGB – It is so AWESOME that you have 9 athletes going down tomorrow! I will be there not participating, but spectating rooting you guys on!
Do WORK Shoreline!!!!!

Hi Lauren
I’m a crossfitter from another affiliate but I follow the shoreline blog as well! How long would you say til you saw significant results when you started paleo (but had already been crossfiting for a bit)? My affiliate is largely male, so it’s tough to relate to them about this type of thing! All the best – thanks!

Thanks Hil!!
KA, thanks for following our blog. It is always encouraging. Once I started paleo, I saw results within two months, and significant results at the 4 month point. These were not only physical, but in my performance as well. If you are ever in the area, feel free to stop by.
