Day 19: Is there really a point in putting a 30 day limit on this?

Well it's Day 19!  Time to get on my blog and whine and complain about how I'm suffering from not eating cake and Doritos and white bread.  Time to describe how depressed I'm feeling and how much I hate dieting.  Do I sound convincing yet?  Because I just realized 90% of this blog is dedicated to describing how much I LOVE eating this way, and listing all the incredible improvements I've noticed on the Paleo diet.  I mean, really, is there any point in calling it a "30 day challenge" any more?   Sure, I've had my bad days, but all of those bad days were caused by either A., me cheating and creating more sugar cravings for myself, or B., me not understanding that I was in control of my day and choosing what I wanted to eat could be as boring (or as exciting) as I wanted it to be.

Here's a running list of the benefits I've noticed:

1.  Longer attention span, better memory
2.  Easier to focus
3.  Rapid thought process
4.  No afternoon sluggishness
5.  No cravings (except when I cheat and have something with wheat or sugar - then I have cravings for 2-3 days - yuck)
6.  Effortlessly slimming down
7.  No bloating, no gas
8.  No retaining water
9.  Dark circles under eyes going away
10.  Cellulite going away
11.  No feelings of depression
12.  Less irritability - I'm more happy go lucky and less tempermental - stress and dealing with people's moods doesn't faze me anymore
13.  No mood swings
14.  More energy, no more chronic fatigue, no more listlessness after work trying to decide between napping or going through a drive through to get my next meal, no more groaning when I have to leave the house for an errand after a full day's work (I really used to hate that)
15.  No more dry skin
16.  Decreased appetite - I don't have to torture myself trying to come up with a sensible 2 or 3pm snack when right down the hall there's a snack bar filled with candy and chips.  Sometimes I bring in food to work and don't even eat it.  I can skip a meal without it bothering me now--whereas before I would get testy or distracted if I didn't eat.
17.  Foods seem like they taste better now.  In fact, they taste so good I frequently can't resist eating random things while I'm cooking that weren't that exciting to me before.  For instance, I'll just start chowing down on hamburger meat or mushrooms or raw broccoli. It's weird.
18.  This verges on TMI so stop reading if you're a non-TMI type person... increased sex drive!!
19.  I am starting to see my abs again
20.  My allergies are going away
21.  Got over a cold extremely fast vs. it turning into a 3 week long ordeal.  I didn't even need antibiotics to get over it.

And so I curled up with my jar of coconut oil, leftover bacon grease, beef tallow, bacon, avocado, and various cuts of meat, and we all lived happily ever after.  The end.
