    Well done! Glad it works for you!
    I've noticed my pain is less on days where I avoid refined carbohydrates.

    What do you eat in a typical paleo meal? How many ounces of meat/chicken? How many cups of fruits or vegs? Just curious as to what a paleo day looks like meal wise. Thanks!

    Bulking meals out with lettuce, mushrooms, cabbage really works for filling the tummy for few calories

    psyllium really helps too by bulking out the belly

    It makes me constipated. I have tried adding more water.......

    I also drink a lot of water. 2 to 3 liters of water minimum per day.

    Every time I have tried the really low calorie approach, I have found it unsustainable and end up gaining it al back plus more. I keep upping my calories and I'm still losing. I'm currently at 1800 and eat back my exercise calories, too. But I'm pescatarian, and as such, don't eat a lot of fast food anymore, which I was doing in the past, so that is probably helping me quite a bit.

    I'm having one of my occasional 1200 calories days today after staying up late watching the WNBA final last night. I manage it without starving by making sure to eat about 1500 calories over maintenance the day before, and then sleeping in past noon. Whatever works for you!

    I love you.
