Most of the days I would eat a bowl of crunchy salad ( cucumber, radish, pepper, tomato) scrambled 2 eggs and 50g of cheese. Sometimes I swap cheese for avocado or 2 bacon rashers

Leon cookbooks!!! Good recipes made simple. And they look amazing. I think there is one called 'family and friends'

I usually make my own with olive oil, lemon juice, honey, mustard and garlic. My latest discovery is pomegranate molasses instead of lemon juice or vinegar. Gives very nice and complex flavour

There are lot of good oils - olive, coconut, avocado, hempseed, walnut... Use whatever fits your recipes. Not everything tastes great with coconut oil.

Drain them, dry on paper towel. Save the oil for salad dressings or roasted veg.

You just have to experiment what works the best for you. Try different percentages and see how you feel. I felt hungry all the time with that much carbs so I adjusted my settings to C 30 P 35 F 35 Feels great! But that's very individual

Most of the fresh water fish. They all taste like mud. Some more that others.

I used to follow paleo few years ago. The best thing about it was NOT counting calories. Just use common sense, like not eating the whole bag of nuts. It works very well for average person. But if you start doing some very intense exercise, you might need to change a few things.

Toes to bar.

Boiled eggs, ham, peas and gherkins, all mixed up with a bit of mustard and mayo - like a Russian salad with no potatoes. 2 cups of black coffee

With garlic, fresh mint and extra virgin olive oil

I personally don't track any exercise. I have set my activity level as active for days when I'm training. And I try to eat a bit less and stay away from starchy carbs when I'm not training. Works for me.

As sweet stuff I like it with Apple, cinnamon and honey or banana and almond butter. As savoury stuff it's nice with lots of fresh herbs, dill is my favourite. As part of meal I like it with potatoes and smoked mackerel. Try different brands til you find the one you like the most. Some taste almost like yogurt just with…

I would eat banana straight after workout and then a decent meal with protein and carbs within next hour.

I like it as omelette filling. Fry some peppers and onions, add tuna and capers. Make omelette, top half with filling and fold

Google paleo baking recipes. They use a lot of coconut and almond flours. Brownies and banana bread are probably the best.

Olives. Full fat dairy, like cheeses, yogurts etc. Ideally grass fed or organic. Try other types of oily fish, like herring, mackerel, sardines, anchovies etc. Try other types of nuts and seeds.

I like it raw. Just grated or julienned with couple spoons of sour cream.

Crossfit x3 times a week. Cycling to work and around the town. occasional extra cyclig if i have time and weather is ok.

I like Freekeh, Quinoa, Buckwheat and brown rice as side dishes. Follow cooking instructions on packet. When ready mix in some herbs and veggies. Barley is nice in soups and stews.

I buy mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts) from Lidl supermarket for 8£ per kg. They are packed in 200g bags and taste great when roasted at home

Crossfit 3 times a week (have no time for more) A lot of veg + meat, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds. occasional pulses, rice, potato, rye bread. I don't count amounts or calories. Just try to make everything from fresh whole ingredients, avoiding processed stuff and added refined sugar.

for building muscle swap all your yoga, pilates and spin classes for more weight training.

There are some good things in paleo eating, like avoiding processed foods and refined sugars. It promotes cooking from fresh ingredients using lots of vegetables, good fat and protein sources. It's not low carb. But i don't agree with eleminating whole food groups like dairy, legumes and grains. I tried it for almost a…

i drink full fat, organic cow's milk. coconut milk for cooking.

why don't you use fresh vegetables instead of canned stuff?

seabass is very tasty fish itself, that doesn't need any extra flavourings, so good old salt, pepper and lemon will be fine. if it's a whole fish, put parsley sprig and lemon wedge inside, season well, wrap in foil or baking paper and bake in oven. if you got fillets, just panfry, add lots of black pepper and squeeze of…

here are some good ideas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wchdd_Ms1h4 i do kb swings regularly, and snatches, goblet squats, lounges, turkish get ups and one leg deadlifts occasionally.

i warmed up with jump rope and KB swings. then i spent 20 min working on chin up negatives. And finished with 5 rounds - 500m rowing, 3min rest.

on food only i spend around 100£ a week for just two of us. any other household stuff and cat food adds more. i try to save buying cheaper cuts of meat - pork leg or shoulder instead of loin, whole chicken or chicken thighs instead of breasts. all the braising cuts like beef brisket, pork belly, lamb neck. oxtail etc.
