ME trying Paleo?!

As I mentioned in my previous post, I still have what I would consider a "need" for junk food, a craving, a love even, even though these foods completely zap my energy. Hell, I even have a picture of me eating an ice cream cookie sandwich on my Facebook page!  But even though I love junk food, I still don't have a big weight problem.  My friends say that I don't "need" to go on a diet.  So why is someone like me trying the Paleo diet?   Well, quite honestly, I want to see if it can help me get the wheels turning in other areas of my life.  I'm a person who's always starting grandiose projects or dreaming up ideas but I hardly ever see them through to completion.  I love to paint and draw, but I have half finished paintings all over my house.  I even have a website to display my art that I haven't updated in ages.  I also have trouble keeping my house as clean as I would like.  To top it all off, I have lived in Colorado Springs for a year around the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains, but I have yet to try hiking!   All of these problems are because I struggle with fatigue.  Everyday after work I'm so tired that I don't feel like doing anything.  If I could find a way to have more energy and enjoy things more, then it would be worth it to me.  So I'm going shopping for Paleo foods tomorrow and we'll see how it goes!
