There have been many adjustments since I first transitioned to a paleo/primal lifestyle this year. I was pleased by how quickly I got used to avoiding bread and sugar, but the one lingering problem? Surprisingly, it’s booze. I say “surprisingly” because I’ve never been a heavy drinker, so I didn’t even consider alcohol when going paleo. But I love meeting friends for happy hour or enjoying an evening cocktail at home from time to time. Now it’s really just about planning in advance and deciding when I’m going to treat myself to a little something extra. For example: St. Patrick’s Day. This is a fun holiday and I expect I’ll be enjoying a drink or two. But what about the food? No worries here!
