Eating Paleo!

cinnamongrrl · 02-03-2013, 06:17 PM

WOW! I have been hearing so much about the paleo diet...but wasn't sure what it was exactly. Thanks Starry for informing us (yet again) about a wonderful topic!

I also don't eat red meat or pork...I've been doing that for a while now...dairy isn't TOO hard to give up....I'm addicted to ice cream, and I like cheese on occasion..and yes yogurt too...but...I think by eliminating these things, I could make a big impact on my well-being. It's a small sacrifice for good health

As to the cheese thing Empress spoke of, I know my client, who is vegan, puts nutritional yeast on his popcorn and it tastes JUST LIKE CHEESE! Also, I have a vegetarian/vegan recipe book that has a recipe for macaroni and cheese using the nutritional yeast...I don't know where paleo stands on carbs, but it could be an occasional "comfort food" and could be improved by using whole wheat pasta..which I'm using more of anyhow.

In short, yes please Starry, send some info my way! As soon as the weather improves here I'm also going to start the running program you suggested!

Here's to a healthy(er) 2013

I just got a A.c,1 test that was a solid 7,this may work out for this reason besides being healthy.I will have a problem with quitting dairy,I have a hang up on ice cream,yogurt and cottage cheese with fruit, the cottage cheese I may not give up but can eat less of it.Already I have cut my red meat down to small cuts two times a week so the rest is white meat an fish of some sort,eggs I keep hard boiled in the fridge for a snack.as for seasonings I rarely use much salt if any then depend on veggies,herbs ans such to bring flavor to the food I cook.Please send me anything that would be useful to help me along in this food plan,I already eat healthy but can do better.Thanks for the offer.
