Can you get used to the idea of breadless sandwiches ? Or having your milk and cookies without either milk or cookies? Diets like the Paleo Diet that restrict entire food groups are difficult to follow. On the flip side, you can determine how primal you want to be, working in some cheat meals if you like.

The Paleo Diet is relatively convenient these days. Paleo recipe sites and cookbooks are abundant, but you can also incorporate eating out into your Paleo plan. Alcohol is discouraged but OK in moderation. You’ll have lots of sites and books for support.

Free sites like Paleo Leap serve up recipes for Paleo Diet followers. There’s even " The Paleo Diet Cookbook ," " Everyday Paleo " and " The Primal Blueprint Cookbook ."

You can eat out on the Paleo diet if you’re conscientious. While there were no restaurants to tempt our Paleolithic ancestors, you’re free to decide how you’ll work them in. If (or rather when) you do, "The Paleo Diet" recommends simplicity: Order lean meat or seafood with veggies and fresh fruit, and call it a night.

You’ll have to find your own ways to save time on the Paleo diet. Since the diet typically involves a lot of home cooking, it can be time-consuming. However, many meal delivery services offer or even specialize in Paleo options.

There are plenty of resources and support for Paleo followers. "The Paleo Diet" offers sample meal plans and recipes, lists of approved foods, and tips on sticking to the plan while eating out and traveling. You’ll find even more help online, including money-saving tips, quick-start guides and shopping lists.

You’ll stay pretty full on the Paleo diet. Nutrition experts emphasize the importance of satiety, the satisfied feeling that you’ve had enough. You shouldn’t feel hungry on this diet – protein and fiber are filling , and you’ll get plenty of both. One small study of 29 participants published in Nutrition & Metabolism in 2010 found Paleo dieters felt just as full but consumed fewer calories than their Mediterranean counterparts.

Whether the Paleo diet tastes good depends on your palate. Carb fiends will be miserable; meat lovers’ taste buds will rejoice - so long as they don’t get bored.
