Hey All.
Longtime MFP member who logs off and on when I feel the need. Currently in a logging phase.
I seriously need some like minded friends.
Full disclosure: I am a Certified Primal Health Coach. I am NOT going to try and get you as a client. I am NOT using MFP to advertise it. I will NOT ever even mention it on my Feed. Promise! I only mention it because it's in my "about me" section. I don't want people seeing that and thinking that I'm trolling for clients. LOL
I just seriously need some friends that aren't logging cheetos and 250 carbs a day. It's all I can do to just stay quiet.
In case it matters....
Female
48
Married
Mom to 10 year old
Been Primal for about a year and a half.
Thanks!

@primalpam hi. I've been logging on for 500+ days, but sometimes with more purpose than others. I'm trying to get back to eating properly primal and not slipping up so often2

@primalpam I've lost some of my post. I'm female, 47, long-term partner, 2 kids, been primal about 6yrs.2

Thanks, Eve. Sent you a request.0

I’m so glad to see someone posting in here again.
I’ve been on MFP for years. I stick to my little group of friends and stay off the General forums because there’s so much negativity.
I follow: Paleo/IF 18/6
Trying to combat unexplained weight gain over last 4 years (definitely not thyroid related, now being tested for Insulin Resistance)
I’m 55, female
Workout 5 days a week varying HIIT on Bike or Concept 2, Yoga, free weights. Sometimes I nap instead.2 -
Welcome @HestiaMoon1!!
I think we are starting to get some fun and cool people that don't trash each other for everything. Isn't that nice!!!
I like how you 'sometimes nap instead'!! Yay!! Unplug, unwind, try to eat as whole - food (non-processed) as you can...that should be our little groups motto.

@HestiaMoon1 I've been on here for years, too. I've come onto this forum, because I know I'm mostly likely to stick to it better with a bit of outside support. I try to IF 16/8 atm.
@madwells1 Here's to fun and cool people!1 -
Hi Pam,
I’m not Primal, but since I got my Instan Pot we eat more meat and veggies You won’t find cheetos on my profile, but I do make my own bread, so occasional sandwich will be gracing my log... (if you have a recipe for primal bread made in a breadmaker, I’d be happy to try it1 -
Welcome, @Gritty_Gal. I think the whole point of primal is whole, unprocessed food and what works for you. There are paleo/primal bread recipes, but I've no idea what they're like.1
-
I like to consider myself about 90% paleo/10%keto. I mostly aim for Whole Foods but some Whole Foods are not keto friendly, and some keto things I consume are not paleo friendly(sometimes cheese and yogurt). However, I like to learn new paleo recipies that I can make.2

I bake my own bread too! It’s hard to find organic flour where I live though. I don’t know a Paleo recipe for a bread machine. I really like Elana’s Pantry for almond flour breads that I can eat.0 -
Hi Pam. I'm not particularly primal by design, but I don't eat many heavily refined convenience foods, highly refined carbs or the like. You'll never find cheetos in my log. If I log at all. ha.
I eat primarily protein, veg, nuts and seeds, some dairy, very few grains, a few fruits.
I'm 53, (post)menopausal. I walk regularly, do yoga and pilates classes on alternating days. Try to jog a few times a week... Married, no kids. Cheers.1 -
Hello to @skorpi09irl and @Sabine_Stroehm. I eat a little dairy, I tried cutting it out last year, and I'm not sure it made much difference. I will eat some unpasteurised cheese, grassfed butter and greek yoghurt, maybe a little cream in my coffee. I do also eat some soy from time to time, in the form of miso, tofu or edamame beans. I think it's about what works for you. I'm currently trying to be low carb, to reduce body fat %, and it does make me feel better too.1

Hello! I'm always looking for new primal friends.0
-
I'm always looking for like-minded friends. I'm a Certified Nutritional Therapist and currently follow a Paleo/Keto diet and routinely practice IF. I may hawk my IG page in my feed occasionally, but don't push my business on anyone. I'm like the "woo" queen on the main boards here LOL2
-
I'm also always looking for like-minded friends. I am not following a paleo/primal diet, but I have found the most success at my current age and lifestyle with eating mostly Keto. I feel better than I have in a very long time. I'm working on losing weight and I'm within 20 lbs of my goal, but this is a lifestyle now for me because of how much better everything in life is when I am taking care of myself!
I only belong to one Keto group because I do not subscribe to high fat keto, I try to be low carb, high protein and moderate to low fat. The high fat numbers do not work for me and growing up in the 80s and 90s and I just can't wrap my head around eating large quantities of fat on purpose!
Hopefully no one will see Cheetohs in my diary, and you definitely won't see 250 carbs per day, but I would like to say up front that I have 1-3 days per week where I am not "on track" and I am okay with that - but feel free to check me if I seem to have strayed lol

@MyEvolvingJourney I've sent you a request 😊1

I'd love some paleo buddies. My bf and I have been eating this way for a few months after completing a whole30, but we fall off track sometimes.0
-
I do 90 days of whole30 twice a year (three months on and three months off). I do weigh and log calories on W30 so I can see how foods influence my weight loss (data). I only go off so I can have a few adult beverages at an annual camping trip and my birthday. I've logged for 480 days and have lost 118 pounds. I have two pounds to goal. I'm 54 years old (male) and will have abs by my birthday in a month and a half. I grew up eating real food and I don't miss grains or dairy in the least. I try to keep my macros at 25/50/25, usually hit protein goal, hit fat about half time and seldom go over on carbs. My diary is open to friends and my favorite foods are cabbage, mushrooms, avocado, and meat. Worst side effect......I've become a hot sauce addict. I'm the same weight I was in high school and wearing Levi's 501s I saved from my freshman year in college and they are too big. I only do heavy weight lifting and very little cardio other than walking as much as I can work into my normal daily routine.2

Hi, all! I've been doing MFP and Paleo off and on for about 3 years. I live in Ohio with my hubby, cat, and gecko. I am a teacher and tend to do really great with Paleo during the summer, but have a hard time in the fall when life gets really busy. Hubby is supportive and Paleo, but works more than I do, so isn't a lot of help with cooking, planning, etc. Feel free to friend me. I could use more Paleo/Primal/Keto friends!0

I've just joined this group and would like a few friends!1
-
Just joined this site yesterday, and this group today. At home I am probably about 85 - 90% Paleo/Primal, low carb. Trying to cut down on cheese. I can't eat most tree nuts. I'll go send you a friendship request.
Good to "meet"!
If others want to befriend me, please do so, thanks.1
