Eating PALEO under PRESSURE…

If you want to eat healthy and follow a "Paleo Lifestyle", you must learn to cook and prepare your own meals. By now, I'm sure you have figured out how to cook something... Right? Yes. Even if you have not taken responsibility (yet) at least you know what is PALEO (lean meats/seafood, fruits/vegetables, nuts/seeds) and what is NOT PALEO (grains, legumes, dairy, processed foods). These are your guidelines to live by. At any point in your day, at any restaurant or any food/meal choice opportunity, what are you going do under PRESSURE? Over the weekend, this was a very real situation for me. I had a few friends visiting from out of town and they had to stop at Taco Bell for a late nite snack. Have a look their menu HERE. What would you do? Below is a photo of what I came up with? Take a guess...

Workout of the Day
Last week on Feb. 21st, the New South Wales/Australian Capital Territory Sectionals put on "Fight Gone Bad!" as WOD #1. Get in here today to see how you measure up to the competition.
Three rounds of:
Wall-ball, 20 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 75 pounds (Reps)
Box Jump, 20" box (Reps)
Push-press, 75 pounds (Reps)
Row (Calories)
In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute.The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. On call of "rotate", the athletes must move to next station immediately for best score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

PALEO RESOURCE
Principles of Paleo Diets - Even though there are many variations on the Paleo theme, at a high level all Paleo diets agree on a few key principles: only eat foods that can be picked or hunted in nature, avoid foods that cannot be eaten raw, and prefer meat products from animals fed their natural food. In practice, this translates into the following:
Avoid sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and refined seed and vegetable oils as these are not available in nature, and only become available after heavy industrial processing.
Avoid grains (particularly wheat), legumes (particularly soy), and starchy tubers (such as potatoes) as these foods cannot be eaten raw.
Prefer grass-fed and grass-finished beef over grain-fed beef.
Prefer pasture-raised poultry over conventionally raised poultry.
Natural saturated fat is generally considered neutral but superior to refined vegetable oils.-www.paleoforlife.org

    That looks a lot like the food I ate Friday when my parents, my wife and I went to visit her family and we ate Mexican food. Fiesta salad (normal mixed salad, minus the beans, add chicken) with guacamole and salsa. Everybody else had burritos.

    I had to completely skip the birthday cake and ice cream (it was my wife's birthday).
