Exercising Radical Restraint: Powerful strategies to strengthen your Paleo willpower

We talk to our patients and crossfitters about the paleo diet often.  Often we focus on what to eat and how to prepare good healthy food.  One of the hardest parts of the paleo diet is simply willpower, which we all struggle with.   I found that the following article will be particularly helpful for those struggling with their willpower to eat paleo, or any other healthy diet choice. 

From www.beingprimal.com:

I have been thinking about this question for some time now. Why are some people thriving with the Paleo diet and experiencing all the wonderful effects like...

  • fat loss
  • improved health
  • clearer thinking
  • sounder sleep
  • enhanced fitness
and others are struggling to attain any noticeable results in any of the areas above.

There are lots of reasons why this is, but none that can be easily explained as I eluded to in last week's post, Making Paleo Work: A more complete model for fat loss and body transformation.

If you haven't read that one yet I encourage you to give it a read. Click the link above to check it out. It has over 1100+ Facebook shares to lend a little credibility to it's popularity.

But that said, my own personal research (self-experiments, interviews, and the articles and studies I have read) has helped me uncover distinct behaviors that separate those who thrive with Paleo from those who struggle.
