We are into the last week of our September Paleo Challenge and i hope you are all by now feeling fantastic and energised.
We've heard from a few of you that it took a bit of getting used to changing your diet in this way but this is completely normal. I'm also glad to say that those of you that were wobbling stuck with it after our advice and are now feeling the true benefits of a clean diet.
The challenge officially finishes next Sunday 2nd October so have a great week of super nutritious, clean eating and then we'll see what a change can be made in just 30-days when we take all your measurements again next week!
Make sure your food diaries are being filled in so you can see exactly how good you have been over the last four weeks (and so can we!!)
At the end of the challenge we will then follow up with a 'what to do next' post concerning how to go about maintaining your new diet and not slipping back into your old ways. Yes you can start introducing a few of the things you have really missed, but in moderation and not everyday! In fact, going back to eating how you were before will more than likely make you feel quite sick.
As a little bit of encouragement i thought you may find this of interest! When you see the sugar laid out like it is next to the products it truly is stunning how much sugar we ingest without thinking about it. Imagine your disgust (I would hope!! haha!) if someone asked you to eat 10 sugar cubes instead of having a can of Coke!! Crazy isn't it!

Have a good week and see you at the box.
Cheerios, one square? That's surprising...!
ReplyDeleteIt is actually isnt it? The main ingredients are oats and sugar is very low for a cereal (well, the plain cheerios anyway!). They still have a high glycemic index though which isnt desirable and is definitely not Paleo. Best to avoid grains and cereals as much as possible. :)
