    ok - opinion time ;)
    testing for celiac and gluten sensitivity will tell you little.
    Bottom line, you shouldn't be eating any grains (how is that for opinion :)
    Sounds like you are on board, but go COMPLETELY grain free for 30 days, then decide - don't let a test decide for you.
    If you choose to go fully primal/paleo - i promise (or your money back), that you will live a better, stronger, healthier life.

    Lol , thanks mike . im def on board regardless of the results. And I want to look and feel the
    best i can be. i look forward to feeling great. iv got 25kg to reach my goal weight so no doubt going paleo
    will help with that too.
  • Hello, I've been Paleo for about 2 1/2 -3 weeks now and I have never felt better in my life. and I lost actual pounds with this lifestyle change. My gf said "so how long are you gonna try this?" I said I am in it for life and really mean it. I would love some new Paleo Pals. I'm sending you a friend request. :)

    I am starting Paleo today- Please add me as well!! I'm really excited about it. I will try it out for 30 days and then hopefully keep with it.
  • I have been Paleo/Primal since September of last year, but strayed during December from depression. Getting back to the lifestyle, and would love more paleo/primal friends as well.

    Paleo since October, I tested negative for Celiac, but felt awful when I ate wheat or grain, cut them out and feel awesome!! will never go back! Paleo hands down is the way to go, if at first you find your energy is lacking, ( it will come back)just increase your fat intake, don't be scared of fat!! I was at first but started eating the right fats, avocados, fish, nuts, it does wonders for energy and I didn't gain weight, biggest misconception. Don't miss grains, sugar or dairy at all :) add me if you like!!

    I'm nearly Primal. I do Tim Ferriss Slow Carb diet, which is essentially Primal with beans. I've had good success with it by using some of Mark's guidelines along with Slow Carb such as making sure I'm under 150g of carbs, do easy cardio workouts coupled with HIIT, etc.

    Down 25 lbs so far and about 50 to go at the least. Feel free to add me as well.

    Hi! I'm on my third day of Primal. I sent a friend request!
  • I also started paleo (not super religiously, but about 90% of the time) at the beginning of the year and it has been great so far! So much energy, and I can tell a huge difference between how I feel after a meal with grains (gross and grumpy) and without (satisfied and energized)! You are in for a great time.
