Last weekend of the Paleo Challenge! How do you feel right now? Are you planning on a Post-Challenge Blow Out with Ho-Ho’s dipped in soy sauce with a side of skim milk or will you be sticking with the Paleo Lifestyle?

A big part of the Paleo Challenge is changing how you understand food at a very basic level. We want a “diet” that becomes habit, but that you also look forward to. Cooking new dishes and sharing them with friends and family is a big part of that.

Have you experienced change in how you feel about eating and how you eat?

You can check out the playback of last nights Stay on Track meeting here.

If you have any ideas on how we can improve the Audio/Video of the meeting, we’d be happy to try them out.

Paleo Challenge Stay on Track Meeting goes Wednesday, 7:15pm, at 1020 N Highland St, 2nd Floor Party Room.

For great recipe ideas, you can check out the PCF Paleo Challenge Tumblr and submit your own.

What’s been your favorite new Paleo recipe or recipe site?

My three favorite Paleo Blogs are:

Mark’s Daily Apple
Robb Wolf
Free the Animal

What’s yours?

Another weekend down, and hopefully another Paleo success.

Are you finding it easier to manage your weekends on the Paleo Diet?

Tequila is not Paleo. That is all.

Are you weighing yourself? Is that really helping you look/feel/perform better, or is it making you crazy? Too much weight loss, not enough weight loss, no weight loss, WEIGHT GAIN!?!?!?!!?!

If weighing yourself isn’t making you look/feel/perform better, than why do it?

Read “The Weighting Game“.

Sometimes athletes get into Ketosis and sometimes they don’t. I don’t think that Ketosis is necessary for significant weight loss, nor do I think it should be the goal of the Paleo Diet.

If it happens it happens, if it doesn’t it doesn’t.

Read “Metabolism and Ketosis.”

A machine wears down under stress until it needs to be repaired or replaced. An organism grows stronger from stress, as nature understands it. An organism grows weaker from stress that is unnatural.
