Nov 1st- Dec 1st (No Cost To Enter)

Details:

The Paleo Diet is a lifestyle. It is an approach to diet that is based on the quality of foods you eat. It mimics the diets of our hunter-gatherer ancestors – consisting of lean meats, seafood, vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. It excludes foods that came from agriculture or processing – dairy, grains, refined sugars, etc.
…

The basic concept is that these foods are the foods that we are genetically adapted to – after all, our diets have evolved and modernized,” our bodies haven’t. There are many benefits to eating this way, including a naturally lean body, acne-free skin, improved athletic performance and recovery, and relief from numerous metabolic-related and autoimmune diseases.

Rules:

Eat- Meat & Veggies, Nuts and seed, some fruit, little starch, no sugar

Avoid grains, dairy, legumes and processed foods.

• You can eat all non-starchy seasonal vegetables
• Plenty of seasonal fruit
• Moderate healthy fats
• Moderate nuts and seeds
• No grains or cereals at all
• No legumes
• No dairy products (eggs are not dairy)
• No processed foods – make it yourself!
• No sugars. Agave, organic honey, molasses, pure spun golden sunshine….it doesn’t matter. They are all out.
• No artificial sweeteners. These are not food! They are out too.

* Athletes looking to gain weight are welcome to eat potatoes and yams

Scoring:

If you cheat on any food item you lose your point for that day. 30 days = 30 points. The person with the highest points wins!
