Planning your Paleo Diet

You must not embark on your Paleo diet before planning what foods you are going to take during the first week. Buy the things that are needed in advance to avoid reaching out for some sugary snacks immediately craving starts. It is wise to have adequate supply of snacks like walnuts, almonds, peanuts and fruits. When planning your Paleo diet you have to focus on mealtimes. Here is a sample meal plan.

Breakfast

-Eggs, mushroom, garlic, onions and steamed spinach
-Use coconut oil
-Avocado

Lunch

-Chicken salad with red onions
-Herb, olive oil and lemon juice dressing
-Pecans, cantaloupe and blackberries
Snack
- ¼ cup macadamias

Dinner

-Venison steak
-Ginger cabbage and olive oil
-Steamed summer squash with lemon juice, cinnamon and coconut milk
Desert
-Shaved almonds

Your first shopping trip ought to include fresh vegetables, lean meat, chicken, fish and some allowed snacks. Buy load of herbs, coconut oil, epsom salt, olive oil and anything that will help you survive the adjustment phase.

Taking care of yourself

It is a great idea to observe your body's reaction to the new diet. There are plenty of nutrients and no filers in the Paleo diet. Many people experience a detoxification period where their bodies learn how to use fats as the main source of energy instead of carbohydrates.
