What would Fred eat?

I'm thinking of embracing a paleo diet for 4 months.
It will begin after my 24 hour race, on Jan 1.
It would end after my 50 mile race on April 21.
That would be 16 weeks, enough time to see if this type of diet would work for me.

So what's it going to be for 2012?

Wheat-free?
Grain-free?
Paleo?
Sugar-free?

To make my decision, I've been reading lots of books. Wheat Belly by Dr Davis www.wheatbellyblog.com started it all, I know that I'll be wheat free in 2012. But what about the rest of it?

I've been learning about the Paleo/Primal diet. I like it except for the meat part. I've been a vegetarian for about 20 years. I eat fish/ dairy and eggs. No matter how I try to make the case for adding some meat to my diet, I can't do it. Even the grass fed, humanely treated kind.

How about giving up sugar? I'm tempted to do this but how radical will I go? Do I quit refined sugar but leave in honey, maple syrup and maybe agave? I've been reading about Coconut Sugar, maybe that's all I'll use. Or maybe just fruit sweetened desserts?

OK so no wheat. But how about rice? Maybe just small portions, like in sushi?

I've got some decisions to make. Whatever I decide on Jan 1 will extend through the year.

I better start reading...
