Paleo Lifestyle

Well, since I do not start my new job until the first of March, we have really enjoyed immersing ourseles in our new Paleo lifestyle. I have really enjoyed cooking and learning new substitutes for foods we love, but can't eat...for example, last night I made tacos. Now not eating grains, I had to get creative with the tortillas. So I made them from almond meal!! They were thicker and harder than your regular tortillas, so what was intended to be a taco was more like a Chalupa! We don't eat cheese either, but I made some homeade guacamole and we added jalapenos as well! They were delicious!!! I have also made brownies, carrot cake and scones...all without flour or sugar!!! Winston and I both have notice a change in how we feel. Winston has also realized that he is somewhat lactose intolorent...nothing a little Almond Milk can't fix!!

How did we hear of this? Our friend, Hawkes, just bought a Cross-Fit gym in Jacksonville. The Paleo Lifetyle is very pominent in the Cross-Fit world. Hawkes challenged us to try it for one month...if we couldn't cut out all of what is recomended, he said to start with just sugar, grains and flour. We decided to go all out and have been tyring to stick to the recommended diet.
