It's my first day on Paleo.
I need to cut down on food intake not because I want to lose weight (that's a super added bonus though) but because of my blood sugar levels. I was already hospitalized in 2013 because of uncontrolled blood sugar (aka Diabetes) and I don't want it to happen again. I immediately started my Vegan-turned-Pescetarian diet after that episode but I was able to sustain it for only 8 months. I blame those delicious Pork Buns of Tim Ho Wan for making me fall off the wagon. It went downhill after Witt and I had those yummy soft buns at SM Megamall last May.
I am not feeling good lately so I decided to subscribe to one of those calorie counting "lunchbox diets". I was supposed to order from Diet Diva, Fitness Gourmet, or Health Bistro until I discovered Paleo Manila.
I was browsing Instagram over the holidays when I chance upon Paleo Manila which serves Paleo meals. I first heard of the Paleo diet from some friends who are already on it. I got curious so I read and researched about it. Paleo is called the "Caveman Diet" inspired from the Paleolithic Era. The diet is consist of food that our ancestors hunt, fish or gather in the olden days. It's made up of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, seafood, eggs, nuts & seeds. It doesn't allow grains so my favorite rice, pasta and bread dishes are definitely out of the question. The diet also eliminates dairy products, legumes and processed oils.
