    Primal here. I've been doing this for a month and am down 11 lbs so far. I'm feeling sooo much better!

    I added a few of you as friends, but I got called away in the middle, so please feel free to add me.

    Do you mind if I add you all as friends? I am new to MFP and relatively new to Paleo.

    Back story: have avoided carbs for a couple of years now but am amping it up a notch to also exclude dairy. I am incorporating ADF/ IF into the deal and have just completed my 2nd 34-hr fast for the week. Looking forward to some eggs this morning!

    I'm 40years, female, a mother, 5'9.5

    No scales but thigh measurement is 22 and waist is 29. Hoping to lose an inch or two from both.

    Looking forward to the support and advice!

    I could use more Primal/Paleo friends too. :-) I'm just starting out with this way of eating, I've only been doing this a month and still figuring things out. I'm loving it so far!

    Go you on day 11 of Whole 30! You're over 30% of the way! Time seems to really fly on this, especially after halfway through.

    You're right, the longest days were Days 1-5! Now it's just coasting. :)

    I just wanted to add, for anybody new... whether you stick with paleo or not, it's great giving it a try every now and again. Whether it's just eating paleo or doing a Whole30, something in my diet completely changes without me trying every time. My last Whole30 got me addicted to lemon water and off of artificially sweetened tea completely. I no longer die over or even want pasta or bread, which I never thought was possible. I love cheese, I do... but I had it on my Chipotle bowl a couple weeks ago after nixing it for a year, and I literally gagged and had to toss it all.

    I think this Whole30 I'm practicing better habits while dining out and actually asking that my food not be cooked with oil or butter. I'm also cutting out condiments this time, which I've never done on paleo.

    So baby steps! It doesn't have to be overwhelming.

    Hi everyone! Please feel free to add me, too! I definitely need some more paleo/low-carb friends!

    I've been dabbling with paleo for about the past 2 months, with some slip-ups here and there. Right now I am on day 5 of the 21 Day Sugar Detox, and I am going strong!

    Feel free to add me, I've been on Primal since I got diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes just over a month ago.

    Since then, I have lost a stone, and my blood sugar readings are all normal.

    It's a great way of eating, and I feel 100 times better than even a month ago.

    I just started eating strict Paleo on Jan 1st! Feeling good, although my weight has been stagnant this past week. I'm sure my body is just getting used to the change. I will likely be adding cheese back into my diet in February as long as my body will still tolerate it :)

    Would love some paleo support! Seeing everything I can't eat on my other friends diaries is such a tease!

    I am 5’6.5” and 26 years old
    HW: around 232 lbs
    CW: 184.5 lbs
    UGW: 155 lbs

    Anyone feel free to add me as well! I was Paleo for about 2 months and lost 27 pounds. Recently I fell off the wagon through the holidays but now I'm back on and going strong and have lost 6 of those pounds! I love Paleo!

    I'm 5'7 & also have PCOS (but not for long)

    I would love some new friends, too! While I am going for weight loss, I'm at a weight that I'd be comfortable at for the rest of my life. What I'm hoping for is to start feeling more alive and less addicted to sugars and processed JUNK!
    I am am other of 4 (ranging from almost 9 months to 7 1/2 years) and we homeschool and are involved in scouts. We aren't the little quaint family you're probably imagining, though. ;) I'm lazy, emotional, and dying for a mom's night out at least one a week. :)

    Anyway - I started the 21 Day Sugar Detox and am currently on day 3. I'm vlogging about it too on Youtube (JennsRAQ) so I can look back and see how it was and compare it all. I'm sharing it to keep myself accountable!

    I'd love some friends on here that are Primal or Paleo for sure.

    Hello everyone! I've been paleo/primal for 1.5 years. I love it and wouldn't have it any other way. My primal lifestyle helped me lose fat and lead me to discover kettlebells, which I'm now certified as an instructor. I'm also getting my master's degree in music.

    Here's me:
    23
    Female
    5'6"
    HW: 210 (172 when I started primal)
    CW: 160-163
    GW: 145-150

    I'm experimenting with carb cycling in the evening, so my journals will reflect that. I don't do dairy except for ghee - I'm highly intolerant. Feel free to message me about anything - food, fitness, music, anything! I'm super friendly!

    Hi Everyone!

    I'm new to the Paleo/Primal way of eating.
    I have gluten/wheat allergies,so I thought i would give it go!

    I'm trying to go with the Primal way of eating.

    I am hoping to shed the last bit of weight I'd like to lose, and to feel strong and healthy!

    Feel free to add me!:smile:
