Beyond Paleo: moving from a “paleo diet” to a “paleo template”
Beyond Paleo: moving from a “paleo diet” to a “paleo template”. Good advice about how to follow a Paleo “template” in your life to improve your health. No need to be super strict about everything all the time. If you’re not enjoying yourself, what’s the point of being healthy?
Day 6
Not going to lie, posting pictures of my food every day is not something I’d want to keep up with indefinitely. Once this Paleo challenge is done on October 30th, I’m only going to be posting pictures of recipes. This photoblogging is only to show you what a Paleo inspired diet looks like.
Day 5
I forgot to post my food from yesterday! Sometimes life in graduate school gets a little busy.
Day 4
First full day of classes staying on Paleo, and it wasn’t too bad. It seems like the thing to do is make extra dinner the night before, and take half of it as leftovers for lunch. That’s what I did for lunch today, and it worked fine. It really saves time with cooking, since you [...]

Day 2
So I made some big improvements to my eating today, as far as Paleo goes. I made a big effort to stick to the rules as much as possible. And I ate LIVER. Enough said.
Dr. Joseph Mercola: Coconut Oil Benefits: When Fat Is Good For You
If anyone is curious as to why I do all my cooking with coconut oil, and why I add it to my coffee in the morning, I suggest you read this article. Coconut oil has a ton of health benefits like boosting metabolism, killing infectious agents like viruses and parasites, aiding weight loss, and protecting [...]
Day 1
As I said, I’ll be posting every day’s meals as a way to show you not only my compliance, but also ideas on how to cook Paleo foods. I think the biggest challenge will be packing lunches, but I’ll deal with issues as they arise so you can see the different ways you can fit [...]
