Paleo diet for arborists

[Taupotreeman]

My lunchtimes at work consist of 2 avacados, 4 boiled eggs, tin of mackeral, mayo, all mashed up with olive oil, an onion, salt and chilli, and fresh lime. Great energy food!

 

What do you have for lunch at work?

 

 

4 or 5 boiled eggs, cucumber, tomatoes, beet root, sometimes onion and some meat of some kind. Usually lamb or pork but lately it's been fresh shrimps. I also have a little bit of fruit and some home made muffins.

I have an old cookery book says you must add cold water to mustard powder and wait at least 10-15 minutes before eating. And to add any salt/vinegar after this time to avoid a reaction that causes a bitter flavour, also to wait before adding to mayo.

Exactly what it says on the tin 😊 and no sugar in the powder.

Also just found out that hard cider is ok on Paleo. Sorted.

I also noticed that. Unfortunately I love mustard on my beef. Horseradish is the same.

For the 10 grams of mustard I use on my eggs in the morning, I can handle a gram of sugar.

 

Not ideal though, like 10bears says, there's no need.

Happy so far with the two new holes required in my belt and not needing to sit on the dunny several times a day. No idea how much weight I might have lost.

Started doing it this week. Have taken the recipe list from the first few pages. I'm on boiled eggs, tuna and salad with the odd steak thrown in here and there!!

Cool, let us know how you get on. The first weeks a bit of a struggle in more ways than one!

I've sacked it, there is some evidence that a high protein diet can increase your risk of cancer.

 

I'm keeping a reduced carb intake, they recon the "third rule" is best, i.e., 1 third protein, 1 third veg and 1 third carb.

 

Been back on limited carbs for a couple of days and still feeling good.

I think the important thing really is to cut out all the processed food
