Binge free/paleo diet to lose massive weight!

I'm not paleo, but I do look up a lot of recipes on Pinterest, and they have a ton of paleo recipes... you just have to search for them.

I'm also trying not to eat wheat, and found some cauliflower tortillas. You can find them here... http://slimpalate.com/cauliflower-tortillas-paleo-grain-free-gluten-free/

I'm not doing paleo but couldn't you just switch out the flour tortilla to a corn tortilla? Make it a taco instead of a wrap? I use steamed white corn tortillas, 50 calories each. It is like three corn tortillas to one flour tortilla on calories and much better for you.

There's lots of recipes on Google, here's one that you may like.

Paleo tortillas/bread are normally kinda junk. If you feel better doing paleo, then stick with it. You can always schedule a cheat meal that still fits in your normal calorie and macro goals that includes some of the things you miss.

As for juice, I tend to avoid store bought juices. Most of them have tons of sugar. When you eat the whole fruit you're getting more fiber and nutrition out of it.

Seems a lot to be taking on all in one go. Might make sense to get used to the lower calories and gradually switch meals rather than going hell for leather and not making it. I've tried fad diets before and have tended to feel like I've failed and give up when I realise how restrictive they are. Paleo may well rule out eating out with friends etc. Are you ready for that?

I've been eating mainly a Paleo diet for over a year now. The scale has not moved, however everyone tells me I look like I am losing tons of weight. I am unable to eat corn, potatoes, and wheat....and honestly sugar causes me to break out almost immediately on the face. All of this is an inflammatory response, which effects my joints. If I eat corn or potatoes, I will hardly be able to walk the next day as my knees and ankles swell. So....paleo is not a choice, it is a must for me.

With that being said, I try to stay away from anything that isn't just one ingredient...two or three at most. I am going to try making the cauliflower tortillas today.

If you don't have to be on such a restrictive diet, then try doing the 85/15 paleo. Basically, you are mostly paleo (which is eating lean meats and veggies, grass-fed beef, good fats, etc) but occasionally will have a paleo 'treat', or a glass of wine, etc.

Good luck!

You can try eating mostly paleo, but if you want the tortilla eat it. One tortilla is not going to cause you any grief. I eat mosly clean, but I'm not a fanatic about it. If I go somewhere and they have processeed food only, I eat it. But if I'm making dinner, it's clean. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

I've been eating paleo since May 2013, when I did a Whole30 at my doctor's urging. I'm 58 I am off blood pressure medication now. I was on 3 medications for diabetes; I am on 1 now. I sleep better and my mood is better and more level. I blog almost daily to keep myself on track and remind myself of what I've cooked in the past.

It's not for everyone, but it works for me. I stick very close to Whole30 eating, but I do have occasional cheese (organic cottage cheese, shredded goat cheese) and I use organic ketchup and relish. I take a day off once in a while, but that hampers weight loss for me.

I do not believe this is a fad. More and more stores are stocked up with natural, whole foods and less junk. My initial outlay on really good food is a bit more, but the money I spent on junk and unhealthy foods is no longer an issue. It's a balance.

Stroll around the paleo web sites. Check out Pinterest. Your library probably has paleo cookbooks.

You can be as restrictive as you want or you can modify it to fit your life better.
