Paleo diet?

[Catrin]

I just looked up a recipe for ghee, so it is basically cooked butter that has had the oil strained from it? hmmm, will have to try this. For some reason I thought ghee was sheeps milk butter or something like that and I've been afraid to try it.

I need to start thinking how to approach this test, frankly I think that cutting out the steel-cut oats and bread will pretty much cut my carbs in half. I just need to think about what to replace that with and get my protein/carb/fat balance where I need it to be. I've a long ride at an event on Sept 22, so that should give me enough time to figure this out.

Back to reading. I like that Mark Apple provides a list of shopping ideas to get started. I've really depended on non-fat dairy for close to half of my protein intake - I just realized that non-fat dairy is pretty high in sodium and I've been noting some occasional blood pressure issues...typically I've close to low blood pressure so am pretty sure this is related to sodium intake.

GLC that helps, thanks! As an active woman it really helps to have an idea how this has worked for another active woman. With the new functional training I've added as cross-training my activity level has really ramped up this summer.
