are you mashing them?

 

Nah. Just leaving them as cubes and eat them like that.

 

hmm not bad... everything looks great

 

someone explain to be real quick what paleo is

 

paleo = paleolithic
a hunter gatherer diet. in a nutshell - meat, veggies, fruits, spices...the end.

 

yeah no sauces, wheat, grains, legumes, created sugars,

Im on day two of paleo and I'm liking it...

 

Takes it's time to get used to the cravings, but they stop in 2 weeks.

I'd try out doing a huge breakfast and 2 smaller meals for now on if you want. Or at least give it a try. You'd be amazed at how little you actually want to eat the rest of the day.

 

Yeah every time I go home i wish I had some chips... then after im done working out i wish i had a dr pepper... I can't wait for them to go away

Ill try the huge breakfast.... what do you do for breakfast usually?

 

I chop up all my veggies and ham the night before, and then throw it in the pan with coconut or olive oil and add in 3 eggs and scramble it together. I need to find something else soon since eggs are starting to become bland.

Veggies include broccoli, jalapenos, tomatoes, spinach, green and red peppers.

 

awesome I love scrambles... but Im the same way... prior to paleo I was eating 3.5k calories a day because I was bulking up... then bulking up made my PFT run time slower so yeah... had to drastically change up everything

 

Great idea! Ive got tomatoes, mushrooms, jalopenos, cilantro, and spinach that Ill use.

 

I know man. I got WAY out of shape between getting married in May and the wife getting pregnant. I have lost 28lbs since the 15th.

I need to find some other stuff to do for breakfast. It really is getting old. I keep switching it up a little here and there. I also have noticed between me buying cage/antibiotic free eggs that they taste 10x better than regular (when the wife goes shopping ).

 

Yea the last batch we bought were "free range" or something like that and they do seem to taste better. We also just got a new meat market that is about to start selling local grass fed beef

Do you have an Instagram? if so there are some good accounts that I follow that post recipies that I can show you.

 

Fuck yeah man keep it up!!

Those eggs sound expensive lol

When you find some breakfast ideas throw them my way lol

 

I don't but the wife does. And I see recipes online all the time. I need to actually start cooking them a lot more. I don't eat much for dinner these days though. My main meals are breakfast and lunch, and then a light dinner before I go to bed.

I have The Fresh Market right down the street. I'm stocked up on some tilapia and salmon right now in the fridge. I'll probably cook some of it up tonight. I still need to finish off the pork loin I have in the fridge from last week .

And they aren't really any more expensive than others.

 

lol they are $$. Like 3.50+ a dozen depending on brand


for anyone with an instagram account follow "LivinPaleo". They just post great recipies and also "FitMenCook" is another good one.

 

We have a United market street and they have the best selection/choices in town but they are also the most expensive

 

Fish is always bomb!

Ill have to check it out at a whole foods or something. I do most of my shopping at the commissary because it's super cheap lol

 

It's about $14lb for wild sockeye. But you can see how fresh it is... SOOOO pink in color. I need to start getting some bison and a food processor to make my burgers.

 

Bison and buffalo tastes amazing! Great choice.
