TRANSCRIPT

It’s been said…

It’s so easy even a caveman can do it.

I beg to differ…

Quest & Curiosity

“Watch Me Go Paleo” is a blog that

chronicles the journey of one man’s

quest and curiosity.

It’s a blog about more than

just a diet.

In fact, it’s not really about

a diet at all.

Nutritional Reset

Instead, it takes an inside out look at how our food-

obsessed culture makes it challenging for anyone

looking to reset themselves nutritionally.

How it all started

“Watch me Go Paleo” was born

when an assignment met a

personal goal.

It was the first day of class,

Spring 2012, and I learned

I’d have to create a blog.

What Should I Blog About?

A co-worker’s sister and her

husband had pioneered a

nutritional reset program

called Whole30.

Based on the tenets of the

paleo diet, which traces

back to the cavemen era, it

was something I always

wanted to try.

Obstacles

But every time I debated starting, something came

up.A dinner party.

A holiday.

A birthday.

A wine tasting.

A vacation.

A Perfect Reason

This assignment offered the perfect reason to tackle

going paleo.

And so I did…

TheWhole9 Nutrition Pledge

First I took this pledge:

“I will eat “real” food – fresh, natural food like meat, vegetables and

fruit.I will choose foods that are nutrient dense, with lots of naturally-

occurring vitamins and minerals, over foods that have more

calories but less nutrition. And food quality is important – I will be

careful about where my meat comes from, and buy produce

locally and organically as often as possible.

Why? Because eating like this is good for maintaining a healthy

metabolism, and reducing inflammation within the body. Going

Paleo also helps to minimize my risk for a whole host of lifestyle

diseases and conditions, like diabetes, heart attack and stroke.”
