So, after blogging for 22 days in a row, I figured I deserved a couple of days off. Although, it was nice to have the time to work on other things, I missed writing. Besides, I have been getting tons of emails asking whether or not I stuck with a paleo diet after my 21 days was done. The answer is YES. I stuck with it.
The only foods I've added, so far, are some fruits and Dark Chocolate Bar
. Happily, I've been able to make my fruit and veggie juice again. And, I'm able to enjoy my bananas, too!

On Saturday, it will have been thirty days since I stopped eating nightshade veggies. I can then start adding them back into my diet, one by one. I've already decided to start with cooked tomatoes, since they're the least inflammatory. If I don't have a reaction, I can keep them in my diet. But, if I do have a reaction, I have to remove them and try again in three weeks. We'll see how that goes.
I've decided to stay paleo, for the most part. I will try to add some raw dairy or goat and sheep milk products from time to time. I actually bought some goat milk cream cheese and sour cream in preparation for when I'm ready. I'll be using them to make some treats for Super Bowl Sunday. That night should be a real test whether or not I can handle eating those foods.
Since finishing The 21-Day Sugar Detox
, I have no desire to go back to my old way of eating. I have felt so much better, I don't want to feel sick again. The program taught me to eat within certain parameters. It taught me to appreciate the foods I am allowed. At the same time, it showed me I could live happily without the foods that hurt me. For that, I am grateful.

I'm going to take tomorrow off from blogging. I will return on Saturday with some yummy recipes for a paleo Super Bowl Sunday. For tonight, I'll leave you with some photos of some of the meals I've cooked this week. I'm working on compiling a cookbook with recipes I cooked during my detox. Those of you who asked for the recipes should have them soon.
As always, should you have any questions or need my help, email me or COMMENT below. Tmoperillo@gmail.com
Goodnight and God Bless!
