I'm trying to get back into the groove and most of my 'real life friends' aren't into weight loss or pales. I know I work better in group environments.

I'm trying to go paleo but it's a slow learning process for me.

I'm looking for some friends to motivate each other. I would love to loose 15lbs. I have an open diary!

Hope to connect :)

    Im in a smilar boat...Primal is grt for me, but my pals are either vegetarian or extreme carb-loaders...very difficult to stay on track for those last 15 lbs! LOL! Good luck and hang in there!

    I have had great success with paleo. I still have a little ways to go so I am tightening up my diet for the time being. Feel free to add me, I am also in search of motivational buddies on here!

    Just asking, why do you carb load? It's not really necessary if you become fat adapted, and if it were, you can do specific things that don't make it a habit. Have you read Paleo Diet for Athletes?

    Hi! I usually increase carbs by eating more sweet potato, baked potato, rice/pasta...My hubby just purchased The Paleo for Athletes for me! he must be tired of my complaining about this subject....LOL!
    I notice that when I open up to more carbs, I seriously CRAVE them throughout the day. Otherwise, when Im consuming mostly protein based with lost of vegies and some fruit, I dont. Its easy for me to fall off the wagon and continue to roll. Any suggestions, @cindytw ?
