It is possible to go into the negative for a day, week, or even diet points overall.
Rules and Guidelines
As a simple explanation we define a Paleo Diet as eating meat, nuts, veggies, seeds, some fruit, little starch, no sugar, and no dairy. While you are not judged on the following proportions, the Paleo recommended serving consists of 40% carbohydrate, 30% Protein, and 30% Fat.
The following chart outlines the primary categories of foods and ingredients that are Clean and encouraged, Clean in Moderation, or Cheats. These categories contain several examples of foods or ingredients that would fall under these categories. However, there may be other foods or ingredients that are not specifically listed which could still be considered Clean or Cheat based on it falling under one of the main categories.
At the end of every week you will hand us a sheet with the number of "cheats" that you have. Encouraged (Clean) Moderation (Clean) Cheats
