DAY 2 Paleo Challenge.
Remember to send in your before picture to nolalde@crossfit1013.com and get your $10 in if you're participating in the challenge.Some of you are already expressing your discomfort with a Paleo diet. One of the most common concerns/complaints I'm hearing is, "I'm so hungry all day.." or "I'm not getting full". Going Paleo doesn't mean calorie restriction. Just because you're eliminating processed foods, grains, legumes and dairy doesn't mean you have to eat less. For most guys you should probably be eating anywhere from 4oz - 7oz of protein per meal. Girls should be anywhere from 3oz-5oz. The rest of your plate should be filled with vegetables. 4 spears of asparagus will not cut it at a meal. Lets not forget about fats too. Throw in half an avocado with your meal as well. The protein and fats should make you satisfied. If not it doesn't hurt to add more protein and vegetables to the meal. Get creative with your meals. Remember the first 2 weeks are going to be rough because your body is getting used to not having all this crap in it.
I've actually made this for breakfast before. Its nice to wake up and have breakfast already made. This is another Crockpot idea:

For peeps that are having trouble with getting started with the paleo diet i bought the ebook 30 day intro to paleo. Its very helpful....includes grocery lists that cover a week of meals and such!
Denise, good point. Some good stuff on that site.
I made the enchilada crock-pot recipe and it came out pretty good.
It tastes even better as leftovers.
