In August we, sisters Katie and Becca, started living together in the suburbs of New Jersey. Having been raised in a family where "what's for dinner" is the first thought you wake up with, we were excited at the prospect of creating extravagant meals together. However, life kicked in and more often than not we reached for our phones/computers and ordered take out to satisfy the immediate necessity for indulgence.
One night over our third order of pizza in a row, we decided we wanted to make a change. While Dominos is absolutely outstanding while you're eating it, the aftermath can only be defined as truly shaming. We started doing some homework and researching various organic ways of living. Paleo was a recurring theme and we decided a regimented structured way of eating was the best way to go so we started with a strict 30-day Paleo diet.
For all the other beginner Paleo eaters out there, we highly recommend http://nomnompaleo.com/. It is the ultimate guide for Paleo 101. There is also an app for Apple products which we found to be incredibly helpful. You can even create a recipe list to email to yourself when you head on the scavenger hunt that is finding organic/paleo products in the suburbs. We are on day 6 and it has been the crutch we have so needed navigating through this new way of eating.
