The PALEOLITHIC way...

Once the nutty time of Christmas is over, Frazer and I are doing something that our PT Manny recommended before we ended our sessions - THE PALEOLITHIC DIET.

Now we already pretty much eat a few meals of the week according to the paleo diet, but in January we'll be doing the 30-day palio challenge.

The purpose is not, and I repeat NOT to loose weight, trust me I never have been nor will I ever go on a diet.

The paleo diet basically mean that you eat none of the following:

• Grains- including bread, pasta, noodles
• Beans- including string beans, kidney beans, lentils, peanuts, snow-peas and peas
• Potatoes
• Dairy products
• Sugar
• Salt

Eat the following:

• Eggs
• Meat, chicken and fish
• Fruit
• Vegetables (especially root vegetables, but definitely not including potatoes or sweet potatoes)
• Nuts, eg. walnuts, brazil nuts, macadamia, almond. Not peanuts or cashews though.
• Berries- strawberries, blueberries, raspberries etc.
• Root vegetables- carrots, turnips, parsnips, rutabagas, Swedes

Not drinking dairy will be I challenge I'm sure, but I really want to try it out.
