Stacy and Sarah have been following a paleo template long enough that their family and friends know how to support their lifestyles When eating out Stacy has learned how to navigate a menu, and Matt and Stacy follow the 80/20 rule with the kids, which helps with flexibility when dining out In the beginning when you are with family try not to make a big deal out of it by calling attention to your eating preferences Sarah prefers not to eat out - she enjoys cooking and doesn't like to risk exposure to dairy and gluten Paleo Granny (41:22) - if you don't feel like cooking after a long day, what do you feed your family? how often do you cheat?
