Hi all. Was on paleo a while back, but fell off for no reason. But I'm back for a second attempt. I started this saturday. Main goal is to lose weight and to have natural energy as I'm tired of running out of energy half way through the day.

Breakfast:  3 **omelet muffins (egg, green orange red bell pepper, turkey bacon), 3 **almond banana pancakes, 3 cups green tea with stevia
Lunch:  2 **salmon patties cooked in grapeseed oil, Huge salad with Italian dressing from whole foods, *2 altoids (peppermint)

*i work at walgreens on the weekend and i did not think that the smell of onions on my breath would be good for dealing closely with the public. otherwise i would have left the altoids alone and brushed my teeth instead

PM snack:     handful of raw almonds
Dinner:  1 turkey burger patty, Huge salad with Italian dressing

Getting enough fat can be an issue.  I do eat "uncured" - actually salt cured - bacon, though it is questionably paleo.  Pork belly is fully paleo but I haven't been able to find a butcher that will slice it the way I like.  If you can't find either, regular bacon is better than getting hungry and eating too much carbohydrate.

Some people find it easier to adjust to unsweetened coffee or tea by changing the type of bean or leaf.  Chinese teas like Oolong work much better without sugar than the western blends, for example.

Hi sleepykgm how have you got on since then...? I'm a newbie to and it but great to see how you are doing
