While researching a bit about the interaction between ADHD and food, I stumbled on articles about that kind of diet.

My (real) question is : what do you eat and how do you keep pleasure in eating ? From breakfeast to super, how can you even avoid bread (and cheese), the best thing on Earth ? It seems so impossible to me.



I am not on a paleo diet. Instead I'm on a dissociated diet and I lost 42 pounds since February.

I do not avoid diary products. I do avoid bread, but when I do eat bread, I prefer bread that's made of whole grains. And so I'm making my own bread. In general I follow these 2 rules:

(1) I stopped eating refined carbohydrates or preprocessed crap (entirely, no exceptions ... all the sugar I want comes from fruits)

(2) I never combine food rich in carbohydrates with meat or diary (I eat potatoes for instance, but without meat)

As to your question on how can you give up bread: refined carbohydrates give you a dependence, just like nicotine. The more you consume, the more you crave for more. When you stop eating bread daily, you simply will stop carrying about bread.


I guess I could make some lengthy tests. But I'm French and you know ... baguette (which, to stay on topic, contains lots of salt).


I find things that work for every meal and try new recipes. Bread tastes great but I avoid it because if I eat it then I will pay a heavy price. Try the primal blueprint for 60 days and see what happens. I noticed a huge change in 24 hours but my results are not typical.
