The main reason I stopped doing it was because it wasnt convenient. The problem is the food that is convenient is unhealthy, Hillman said. Its always going to be easier to get the ramen noodles than to get some nice lean chicken and vegetables and so that was really expensive. Coconut milk and cage-free eggs are twice as expensive. While Hillman didnt lose any weight from doing the paleo diet, she said she appreciated that it rid her body of processed foods.
