Paleo Lifestyle

The Start of My “Eat, Pray, Love” Summer

By Monica Bravo 5 Comments

I used to write these posts called “A Week in my Paleo Life”, where I’d basically tell you about what food I was eating, what workouts I was doing, and why. I thought they were kinda boring, but I got emails here and there saying they were appreciated. I usually hesitate to post personal things, but this summer I am embarking on my own “Eat, Pray, Love” experience. Or a Happiness project. Or I don’t know, one of those books that means I am opening my eyes to new things and experiences! 

My summers and school breaks are always a time for me to refuel and do things that I really love. My freshman summer, I learned the world of blogging from Laura Fuentes. My sophomore summer, I studied for the MCAT. Now my junior summer, I will be learning how to cook from Chef Robert Vasquez. 

Chef's Table quote

Day 1:

The Chef told me I should “prepare for bootcamp”. A few of the other workers warned me that he will be nice the first few weeks, and then he’ll expect a lot from me. So to me this meant, I should probably take notes.

What is Paleo F(x)? Just possibly the GREATEST, most inspiring weekend of the whole year. Imagine walking into a building where each person there has a goal to make this world a better place, and each of them has a different unique story that they are eager to share with you! 

Going to Paleo F(x) felt a little bit like meeting your favorite characters at Disney World, except without the autograph book. Words don’t describe what its like to meet the people who started this movement. To name a few I met Mark Sisson (Mark’s Daily Apple), Dave Asprey (creator of Bulletproof coffee), Melissa and Dallas Hartwig (creators of the Whole30 program), and Nell Stephenson (The Paleoista, basically Loren Cordain’s spokesperson). These people have changed my life and the lives of thousands of others.

A Week in My Paleo Life: Early December

By Monica Bravo Leave a Comment

Dead week is wrapping up here in Baton Rouge. Dead week meaning the week before finals. This is also the time when my usual coffee shops are packed with “seasonals” (as I call them) and us regulars are stuck finding new locations! I usually love dead week because if you prepared enough during the semester, it’s all just review. I’ve had a few questions about how I can stay eating healthy during busy times, and my only answer is food prep. So here are some of the things I bought this past week to munch on!

I understand this doesn’t look like much, but some food isn’t pictures and I usually go to the grocery twice a week!
