Day 6, in many ways this is easier than I expected, last time I attempted this I had failed badly by day 5. I haven't seen a huge drop in energy yet. But I do feel slightly grumpy every time I wake up to another breakfast of eggs.
Have a great day! Weekends are a little tougher, stay strong, post meals to comment and read all your food labels!

Read your labels...
Hey guys,
Thought this was an interesting post from Whole 9.....you may want to check your almond milk etc., chances are it isn't "paleo". Lots of weird ingredients that you can't pronounce is a sign that it's not real food!

Obviously everyone is going to make their own choices here, just wanted to share :)
The Whole 9 peeps are pretty strict (for 30 days) and then they let you loosen up.

Day 5-how's everybody feeling?
Day 5 breakfast:
I am already sick of eggs....wonder why I can eat PB everyday of my life, but can't handle egss more than 2 days.
Trying something new; morning shake w a frozen banana, unsweetened almond milk and sunflower butter.
It was delicious, but the two year Zone vet in me realizes it was lacking in protein. Post 30 days challenge I would round it up with protein powder.
Have a good day everyone! Post meals and feelings to comment.

Jenny, thanks for all the improvements.

Paleo Challenge 2011 edition
Hi guys!
Let's open up the forum again for a brand new 30 days challenge. Jenny and I will update daily for Chris.
Post what you ate for the day, any cool recipes you tried and want to share or struggles you may have.
We are all in this together.
After eating 4 lbs of cheese last night, Scott and I were happy to get this healthy eating going, but I forgot to jump on the scale this morning, I want to see if my weight moves one way or the other.
So for day 1 for Scott and I:
Breakfast:
Fruit salad (banana-kiwi-pomegranate-apples+grapes)w eggs and bacon w black coffee.
Lunch:
Salad w salami and chicken w apple, red peppers and cucumbers. Olive oil and lemon juice dressing.
Snack:
Larabar
Dinner:
Roasted chicken w herbs and seasonings w roasted asparagus, parsnips and turnips. Baked blueberries w almonds and unsweetened coconut for dessert (from Everyday Paleo delish).
Felt good, we ate a lot! I think I was concerned with being hungry and overdid it.
