    A great resource for a Paleo style diet is at Marksdailyapple.com.

    Oh dear god no.

    If you want the paleo diet path, fine, but Mark Sisson is a snake oil salesman and that site is loaded with more bogus "information" than a weekend TMZ viewing binge.

    Examples? Of course Sisson sells supplements, books and seminars, but I don't recall any clearly "bogus" information on his site - rather the opposite.

    I don't agree with all he says, but I have found a lot of his information helpful and I find his theories reasonable (even those I personally disagree with). I also appreciate that he often links to his sources so you can read the underlying information yourself. I'm also a fan of much of Lyle McDonald's information.

    And I've read his blog for years and have never paid a penny for anything. So, not really sure where the snake oil is, but if he's a snake oil salesman, he's really bad at it as so much of his information is free.

    I tried a Keto diet for about 4 months, bought the keto strips and tested my pee pee, i was very hard core with it.
    Basically, yes I lost weight and my tummy was the flattest it's been BUT there's no way I could sustain that. It was just way too restrictive, even eating veggies would throw me out of keto so it's good old fashioned, "everything in moderation" for me now. :flowerforyou:
