Every so often, to help those who are following along and looking for ideas, inspiration, and motivation, as well as for those who ask me all the time, I like to post what I’m eating as an example of what I eat on my Paleo diet.

Breakfast

• Two eggs, sunny side up
• Two slices of no-sugar-added bacon

Lunch

• Ancho Chile Mexican Meatballs – Sherry made these with a mix of pork and beef in the meatballs to give some extra flavor
• Riced cauliflower

Dinner

• Pesto chicken (Sherry modified this recipe and it turned out great!)
• Zucchini noodles

That’s it. I know it doesn’t look like a lot, and you’re right. If I looked at this list a year ago and saw how little it was in the way of volume, I’d have said there’s no way I could eat this little. Getting to this point didn’t happen overnight. I ate pretty big meals when I started at 289.9 lbs because there was a lot more of me to feed and my caloric needs were higher. However, as I’ve lost weight, the portion sizes have naturally crept down, and my needs have decreased. I haven’t had snack cravings in over six or seven months, and now, I feel satisfied and energetic until my next mealtime.
