>>1) Why did you choose the paleo plan?
It made sense to me in an instinctive way, and it includes most foods i
love.
>>2) How long have you been on a paleo diet?
On and off (off due mostly to financial concerns) for about 2 years.
>>3) Which plan do you most closely follow
Mostly Neanderthin.
>>4) What have been your results - health
>>improvements, weight loss, etc.
Lost some excess weight (about 15 pounds); periods went from being a
4-times-a-year affair to pretty regular (with much less unwanted symptoms);
hair and skin became much healthier and beautiful; moodiness and constant
hunger almost vanished; lots of extra energy making me able to go without
sleep/rest for incredible lengths when needed.
>>5) Did you have any addictions when you started
>>that were hard to kick; if
>>so, how did you do it (cold turkey or slow
>>withdrawal)???
Salty snacks are still a bit of a struggle to resist; i still smoke, other
than that not much.
>>6) Are there any "paleo foods" which you exclude
>>from the diet because they
>>don't work for you?
Not really. I stick to things i actually love, this makes it all much
easier. I have no problem with lack of variety as opposed to most people.
>>7) Are there any "non-paleo foods" which you seem
>>to be able to handle in
>>small quantities while still maintaining your health
>>improvements, etc.?
2-3 cups of coffee a day, some chocolate when i crave it bad, i eat
nightshades when thats all thats available in salad bars etc.
>>8) What is a typical paleo day for you? (I'm
>>particularly interested in
>>what you all have for breakfast as I don't like
>>eggs)
Breakfast: often nothing but coffee, I'm not real hungry waking up.
Lunch: Stir-fry with one or two kinds of fish or eggs and bacon or green
salad with chicken and nuts.
Dinner: Steak and veggies or sausages with sauerkraut, any leftovers from
lunch.
Snacks: sardines or kipper in oil.
>>9) Do you take any vitamins, supplements?
No.
>>10) What about exercise?
No organized schedule but mountain biking, hiking for fun.
