BMI: 23.7

Over the last 3 weeks or so, I went through a weird period of time (Paleo lifestye-wise). My gym partner and fellow peer landed a new job and moved away, during that time I suspended the Paleo lifestyle to hang out with him and grab some of our favorite foods/meals/drinks. Pizza, lots of Mexican food, Hibachi Japanese food, etc. Very little is considered Paleo friendly, but it wasn't all "fun times with gluten," he and I went hiking (my iPod said it was roughly 6 miles that we hiked, but all of this was uphill). I've decided to make it into a monthly goal to go hiking once a month (It was a great field test of my new DSLR Camera). The camera made the perfect excuse to "stop and rest by taking pictures." Also more recently, my fancy pedometer came in, and since it came it I've aimed for at least 10,000 steps a day and have averaged just under 11,000. Every week that I get an average of 10,000 steps, work will give me about 100 points (for our new health and fitness system) and at 2000 points I can get a $25 iTunes gift card. I'm very passionate about music, so I'll definitely stay motivated by this incentive. Things will get back on course as far as gym-going activities go, I joined bodybuilding.com's contest last week (I'll post the link to my profile in this blog, when I get more a bit more progress) with a former gym partner and finally renewed my gym membership (after convening my room-mate to be my new gym partner). So things are starting to get back on course for my current lifestyle. I'll be trying a new recipe tonight "Madras Chicken Curry" and also on a cheerful note: coffee beans aren't beans (they are actually seeds), so they might be Paleo friendly after all.
Madras Chicken Curry
1.5 lbs of chicken cut into cubes (froze this to make it easier)
Madras Curry Sauce (To marinated/cook chicken with) [The curry sauce contains tapioca starch, which is pushing the Paleo friendly]
Poultry Seasonings (sprinkle to give chicken more flavor)
(All cooked on medium high)
Veggies
2 Bell Peppers (Red and Yellow diced)
1 Yellow Onion diced
1 teaspoon of garlic
Some Olive Oil
(all sauteed on medium high and added to Curry)
