Feels a bit weird writing about this
Two reasons
I've never thought of myself as someone who shares their diets and healthy eating as i am NEVER consistent with them and i haven't found the topic very interesting in the past.
and
My mother asked me to write updates on how this diet is going so she can use it for her naturopath clinic to inspire other teens (which completely scared me hence why i'm writing it on here and not some word document which she will most likely print out).
I guess I should sort of thank her though, if she had never mentioned the idea i most likely would not be writing about this.
Anyway, i'm trying out the Paleo Diet, if you haven't heard of it (which wouldn't be surprising) it is a nutrition diet where you avoid main foods such as wheat, starch, rice, sugar, dairy and much more.
Yes it is one of those diets where you question what you are actually going to eat for meals.
Thankfully, as i mentioned before, my mother is a naturopath - or nutritionist as i commonly call it so people know what the fuck i'm talking about. So she's been helping me with meals and snacks so that i don't starve because after all this is the paleo diet not the starvation diet.
Might be a good idea to mention why i'm doing this diet. The Paleo diet is probably one of the most biggest trending diets around the world, geez i make it sound like a video gone viral but yeah it's quite well known. People do it for weight, general health, prevention of cancer and skin. For me, it's general health but mostly skin. It has come to my attention that some of the foods i eat really effect my skin and i had to hit rock bottom to realise that and actually take some action.
At the back of my mind i've always sort of known why my skin is not as clear as others (said that in the nicest way possible) but the thought of never enjoying another custard pie again was too overwhelming so i never did anything about it. So far i have already noticed a difference in my skin from being on the diet for just five days - which is pretty amazing to me.
Yes, going out with friends and taking part in fun events is slightly harder when there is absolutely nothing you can eat outside your home fridge but if it means my skin is even slightly better than it was, it's worth it.
Anyway I thought i would just talk about that today as it's one of the main things going on.
I'm finally on holidays! I feel so much more relaxed
Onto new girl woo
Love always xxxx
