I prefer dinosaurs if that’s the question.

Me, before having lamb and avocado for dinner. Yumm :)

Gun show. This was about a week ago. I was just managing to do 1 pushup. I can do 4 now (I do random single pushups throughout the day- it’s called “Greasing the Groove”). Perhaps soon I’ll need a before and after pic.

I previously posted a primal grainless crepe recipe. I have made amendments to this recipe to lower the omega-6 content and to make it more primal. Tastes the same (even better according to my mum) and it looks less “wholegrain.” My boyfriend devoured these. If you’re interested, this amendment will also make it lower in calories.

As follows:
Half a teaspoon of psyllium husk in place of 1 tablespoon of flaxmeal. You get can psyllium husk from supermarkets and it’s pretty cheap.

Good healthy tasty primal snack
(pretty low carb too)

Dukkah carrots:
1. Fill a plate with raw sliced carrots
2. Drizzle with olive oil
3. Cover in dukkah- be generous!

For those who don’t know, dukkah (or duqqa) is a middle eastern nut spice mix. It’s pretty easy to make yourself but you can buy it already made from supermarkets, spice markets and specialty stores. It really makes food interesting. Spices are meant to be good for curbing carb cravings too! When I make mine, I often find it reminiscently sweet.

When I make dukkah, I usually use a mix of cumin, ground coriander seed, dried thyme, dried oregano, sesame seeds, sea salt and chop whatever nuts I have on hand. For me, the cumin, salt and sesame are the most essential bits followed by nuts and ground coriander seed. The herbs can be varied a lot. Some people add things like ground pepper, marjoram, caraway seeds and mint too.

Me in the morning (I do lots of planks now rather than lots of crunches and I think it’s better for getting a little waist), about to go to the shops to get some bones to make bone broth and some chicken to make middle eastern chicken. I should post some new recipes soon- I have so many yummy healthy perfectly primal ones (including a to die for pulled pork and a sneaky grainless low-carb cauliflower béchamel sauce)

Photospamming you. Me, after doing a little hula hooping.

Me. Posing lamely. About to hula hoop while watching tv.

Me as bloated as I get after eating a massive meal since following the Primal Blueprint for a few weeks. Highly recommended.

Grainless, super low carb, sugar free, gluten free, dairy free, high protein crepes. And they’re REALLY yummy!!!!!

I made every grainless crepe I could find recipe on the Internet and was very unimpressed with all of them so I concocted my own recipe with a few trials and tribulations. This one stays together, isn’t really eggy tasting and is sort of reminiscent of french toast or donuts- call me crazy :) This is it!

For 2 large crepes, mix together:
- 2 egg whites
- 1 heaped TBS of flaxmeal (also called ground flaxseeds, linseed meal etc.)
- 1 cap of vanilla extract
- Heaps of cinnamon (I addded at least a full tsp)
- 2 heaped TBS of Ayam coconut milk or other thick coconut milk with coconut kernel extract as the only ingredient alongside water)

I let it sit for a few minutes before cooking. Cook like a normal crepe in coconut oil! I just made it in a normal nonstick pan not a crepe pan or anything. To make them easier to flip you can stick a lid on for a little while to to firm up the top a bit.

I had mine with some purred dates, lemon juice and chopped walnuts :)

Per crepe:
6g protein
2.5g carbs (2.2 of which is just fibre)
90 calories not including oil for cooking

(ps. Appropriate for a primal diet)
