Had the best birthday celebration last night with some great friends at Shik Do Rak in Garden Grove. If you've never been, you must try. It's basically a meat-eating frenzy.
And while the beef we're grilling up isn't exactly lean, it also doesn't contain sugar or carbs or any of the other stuff that's not allowed on Paleo. The meal comes with tons of delicious little side dishes, such as seaweed salad and kimchi. The only thing I really love that I couldn't eat was some bean sprouts.
Well, that and the chocolate cake my friend Cindy brought for my birthday because she didn't know I was on this diet. And now comes my confession -- I have wasted my first cheat day. I couldn't say no to a double chocolate cake topped with candles just for me. So Forrest and I split a small slice. (Forrest is my boyfriend who works out at CrossFit South Bay. He's also doing Paleo.) And I might have had some beer, as well.
Then on my way home from dinner, I saw a facebook post from Zac about how he came home to a freshly baked batch of brownies and didn't eat them. And this morning I saw that Justin made up a "Jen" WOD for my birthday today. So I'm feeling guilty. But also really determined to see this through. And grateful that I work out at a gym and am going through this with such encouraging, all around awesome people.
