Paleo Challenge

Demi is doing another Paleo diet challenge.  However, this time, she is including her family and friends.  She is coordinating a challenge for her peeps who are trying to lose weight.  Demi hopes it will work for them.  She hopes when they see results it will inspire them to keep going.  It's a good example for the boys to see.
     Her friends and families grew up on the Island.  Healthy eating is a foreign concept there.  The first time I went there I was introduce to the bagel with cream cheese and butter.  Yep.  Both.  That sort of sums it up.  Sure, the Island has great bagels and amazing pizza.  Sure, their pizza has specialized crusts, with sesame, onion, or salt, like bagels.  Garlic knots.  More carbs, slathered with butter and garlic.  And they use real butter there.  Real cheese.  You don't see a lot of organic foods sold there.
     The boys like to help in their own way.  They spot any attempt Demi makes to partake of non-Paleo food.  They threaten to sell her out to her trainer.  But they are also supportive of the other family participants.  Of course, they might sell any one of them out too.
