I feel like all week I’ve highly defended Paleo from nay-sayers claiming Paleo’s too hard to follow. I have shown how there are easy and healthy substitutes for our favorite non-Paleo foods. I’ve shown how versatile the diet can actually be.

Conservation Fitness Program, Day 20- Keep It Simple, Sweetheart
Processed food items have more than palm oil in them which raise alarm flags for me. Don’t get me wrong, it truly triggers me when I see palm oil in a food item. But it’s not the only reason I stay away from most packaged and processed food.
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 19- The Paleo Vegetarian
As I demonstrated in week 1, the best and most effective way to change our health and promote a healthy environment is to go vegetarian. Even it it is only one day a week, it can have an enormous impact.
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 18: Paleo Exercise
This week I’m testing out my paleo menu plan for Conservation Fitness Head Start (still not sure if I’ll keep the name or not). When most people think of Paleo, they think of simply eating like a caveman. Eating natural foods, unprocessed, whole foods. They think of eliminating grains, and sugar, and dairy. It’s all…
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 17: Tips for Shopping Paleo (and for Eating Green)
One of the biggest complaints about Paleo I’ve heard is it’s too difficult shopping for such a restrictive diet. I know, that’s actually two complaints wrapped into one.
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 16: Paleo and Palm Oil
I guess it’s suiting I paired two topics I’m very comfortable talking about together. When I think of all my blog posts on Eating Green and healthy living, Paleo would probably be the number one topic I’ve discussed as far as diets. Palm oil would just be my number one topic, period. I talk about…
Conservation Fitness Program, Week 3- Paleo
Ask a health coach their number one recommendation for eating healthier, and they would say eliminate processed foods. Press further and they would say eat foods available in their natural form. Cutting out foods made in a factory and not by our own hands is healthier for us, and it’s better for the environment.
Conservation Fitness Program: End of Week 2
Today ended Keto week, and I already have started my preparations for Week 3, Paleo. It’s interesting how much I am looking forward to Paleo after Keto. Probably has a lot to do with my level of experience with both of them.
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 13: Winding Down Keto Week
As I wind down from doing Keto this week, I am trying to reflect the positive aspects. Keto is a new lifestyle for me to incorporate. The more I experiment and research the diet, the more I can discover fun and delicious ways to eat healthy. But this week, I STRUGGLED to keep food interesting,…
Conservation Fitness Program, Day 10- Healthy Halloween
I knew when I started this practice session of Conservation Fitness that it would be hard to stay on the meal plan at the end of October. I did it last year, when I tried the Whole30. Believe it or not, it’s not Halloween which is hard to resist tempting food. It’s what comes AFTER…
