I've seen a number of new people ask for recommended reading, so I figured I'd start a thread that compiles a list of things to read. Feel free to add to the list, and hopefully the mod will make this a sticky. Books Primal Blueprint - Mark Sisson The Paleo Diet - Loren Cordain The Paleo Solution - Robb Wolf It Starts With…
Okay, folks - this is the requested sticky post on Success Stories - so let's hear 'em! Here's mine: Once upon a time, I was hugely, morbidly obese. Incredibly unhealthy. Completely sedentary. While I had never been stick-thin, as a teen to young adult, I was just overweight. A bit curvy. I was never athletic, but I wasn't…

How is everyone doing? This group gets so quiet sometimes! I hope everyone is doing well!
Hello, I have been vegan for quite a while and have tried to merge paleo into it once before. When I did try Pegan I thought I was going to die and dreamt of bean burritos. Eating healthy has been a learning experience for me and I am a bit more knowledgeable than I was 4 yrs ago. So I am hoping to give it another go. I…
I'm gearing up to do a Whole30 to reboot my Primal (PB) eating and intermittent fasting. I'm working my way up to start on April 1st, so I'll be eliminating the "frankenfoods" and will focus on 75% veggies (low glycemic), remove dairy, and eat moderate protein. Healthy fats will consist of oil/coconut oil, avocado, and…

I haven't checked in a while. Sadly this group doesn't seem super active. How is everyone?
This past weekend my eating has been off, especially today on Easter. I enjoyed the day, but my body is so ready to get back to real foods!
