I’ve brought up paleo several times. Some of you might be wondering just what paleo is. Is it some fad diet, like Dr. Atkins, or the grapefruit diet (do people still do that?). Do I count calories, or uh...points? Nope. It’s not a fad, and it’s not something you have to be neurotic about, tracking how many carbs you eat, fat, or protein. Paleo is the way our ancestors ate, before agriculture and grains ruined everything. Back when we were hunter/gatherers.
Wait a minute... Does this mean I need to like, kill my own meat or whatever? Or forage for berries? While I imagine it would be fun, and yummy, to forage for berries, you can still purchase your goods from the local market. Though, you’ll get higher quality noms from a healthy-ish food store, like Trader Joe’s.
Anyway, enough babble from me. Here are some fan-freaking-tastic places to check out, to find out more about paleo, and how you too, can be grain free. Let me just tell you, I’ve tried many different “diets”, and nothing makes as much sense as paleo. It’s not even really a diet, it’s a lifestyle. Which means, you don’t drink shakes, lose weight, then get fat all over again, once you’re no longer purchasing that overpriced crap. (Don’t get me started on how much I LOATHE shake-based “nutrition programs”... BUUUUUUUULLCRAP!)
