Sandy’s Carnitas Stuffed Sweet Potatoes – Inspired by The Croods!!

March 6, 2013 by Sarah 18 Comments

It’s not everyday that DreamWorks Animation zips an email to your inbox; so when I was invited to develop a recipe based on the upcoming movie about the world’s “first family” it was not hard for me to say YES, OF COURSE!!! Dear readers, how perfectly fun and easy this project was for our little family to undertake because, well, The Croods are PALEO, like, really really paleo, and my kids were literally through the roof with excitement when we watched the trailer together; which you can check out right here:

The Croods, scheduled to hit theaters March 22nd, is a 3D comedy adventure that follows the journey of the worlds first family as they leave their cave home (after it was destroyed) and head off together on a “path trip” of a lifetime. Rocked by generational clashes and seismic shifts, The Croods discover an incredible new world filled with fantastic creatures, and a future beyond any they imagined.

My Review for The Paleo Coach

March 4, 2013 by Sarah 6 Comments

The Paleo Coach is written by a coach who for years has worked deep in the trenches. Jason shows up to work everyday with gusto, with drive, with one purpose and one purpose only – to get his job done and that job is to help YOU. Jason has an undeniable understanding and passion for what he does; something that doesn’t always shine through from those who work in this crazy business of helping folks find health. Jason and I have worked closely together for two years now; and I have yet to see him become tired or complain about what he does. Instead, Jason continues to learn, research, grow, help, and fight the good fight; every single day. Simply put, this is why The Paleo Coach is going to change your life. It was written by a man who wants you to succeed, and refuses to tiptoe around the subject or apologize for what he knows. I was honored when Jason asked me to write the forward for his book and obviously, Jason and I are friends and business partners but this fact does not mean that we always agree. With that being said; please enjoy my unbiased review of his new book, about to be released on March 5th: The Paleo Coach.

In Chapter 1 of The Paleo Coach, you will NOT find a list of what to eat and what not to eat. Instead; you’ll get a prescription of perspective. Jason covers The Aesthetic Goal Conundrum and as I read this section, I realized that if I had been given the opportunity to read this book 10 years ago; my life would have been a heck of a lot easier. Jason explains clearly how by simply shifting how we think about our goals; looking good can simply happen by accident. SO TRUE! Ladies and gentlemen, as Jason simply states; “…not all attractive bodies are small, and not all small bodies are attractive, but bodies that stay attractive for a lifetime are healthy bodies, so attempting to get smaller without getting healthier does not make sense.” Hallelujah!!! Jason continues to explain only in his own eyeopening way how You Can’t Fix a Body You Hate and how things like Yo Yo Dieting and severe caloric restriction is always a bad idea. This section ends with an inspiring story from one of his very own clients, Pam.

The Paleo Coach by Jason Seib

The Paleo Coach
“The Paleo Coach is not just another Paleo book—it’s a priceless tool that is absolutely essential for anyone striving to live the best life possible. The insight, advice, and lessons in this book could come only from someone like Jason, who has spent serious time deep in the trenches of the health-and-fitness industry. With his hands-on experience, understanding, and innumerable success stories, Jason reveals what it takes to look beyond the hype and focus on what really matters: your own personal path to health. Everyone should have a coach, and now everyone can. The Paleo Coach will change your life. Guaranteed.”—Sarah Fragoso, author of the national bestseller Everyday Paleo

“Everyone needs a coach. Yes, everyone! When your car is broken, you take it to a ‘car coach’ (aka mechanic). If your plumbing is backed up, you call a ‘pipe coach’ (some people call them plumbers). Whom do you go to if you want to improve how you look, feel, and perform? A Paleo coach. Like Jason Seib. In the same way that mechanics are experts in what ails cars (and, most important, how to fix those cars), Jason is an expert in all things nutrition and strength-and-conditioning. He has learned his craft through years of research, trial, error, and helping people. Whether your goal is weight loss, being a top-level athlete, or just regaining enough youthful vigor to chase the kids or grandkids, I’d like to introduce you to the man who will help you meet your goals: Meet your new Paleo coach, Jason Seib.”—Robb Wolf, author of the New York Times bestseller The Paleo Solution

“Let Jason Seib be the Paleo coach in your life to help you cut to the chase and get to the meat of the matter about becoming as optimally healthy as you can possibly be! His nuanced understanding of how to live like our hunter-gatherer ancestors in today’s world of iPads, the Internet, and American Idol is sorely needed. Other Paleo books may promise to help you lose X amount of weight in two weeks, but The Paleo Coach offers you much, much more. Jason realizes that it takes a dedicated commitment to implement a lifestyle change and homes in on key principles aimed at delivering big changes in your weight, health, and outlook on life.”—Jimmy Moore, LivinÆ La Vida Low-Carb Blog and Podcast

Transitioning the Kids one Bite at a Time

February 4, 2013 by Sarah 30 Comments

At every workshop that Jason Seib and I present; we are faced with the inevitable question of how do you successfully transition the kids to paleo?? It’s a BIG question, loaded with fear, concern, hope, and sometimes dread. I get it. I’ve been there. These are all real emotions that parents face when considering making a huge lifestyle change. Thoughts run through your mind as you think of your little ones. Will they be traumatized? Revolt? Cry? Scream? Rebel? Move out? STARVE??? Yes, these are all thoughts that crossed my mind too when I decided to take that big giant step into living a healthier lifestyle as I dragged my family right along with me. The result after 5 years of paleo living? My kids still love me. No one rebelled (well maybe a little bit), moved out or starved. In fact, my children are healthier, more active, and happier than I could have possibly imagined even after I tossed out their cereal and bread. In fact there’s an entire list of benefits that I did not even ask for! Just to mention a few: No more eczema for Jaden. Better behavior for everyone. Healthier teeth. No more constant runny noses. Super strong bones (BIG crazy wild boy falls and no breaks). Great energy. Better sleepers. Less picky eaters. Meat lovers. Egg munchers. Sweet potato fanatics. Fresh veggie connoisseurs. Paleo aficionados.
