Hungry all the time
I'm slowly trying to ease into lc paleo and have been doing so so for the past month or so. I've had a few slip ups here and there but have been able to get back on track relatively easily. Something that's making it really hard to stay consistent is my hunger. I'm hungry all the time and I swear my appetite is growing. My…

Not logging calories for first time in 2 months!!!
Ok, I know it sounds crazy....but I eat more when I log my calories. :( I'm not trying to lose much more weight....maybe a few more pounds. But mostly trying to build muscle, lose fat and tone up. I work out 5 days a week and need to cut back my snacking. I'm noticing that counting calories throughout the day...all I think…

Paleo for IBS
I want to start eating right partly to get my IBS under control. I was talking with a coworker who is Paleo about it and he recomended me doing it. It makes sense, considering I cannot have any dairy, pasta, ethnic foods, greese, onions, and several other non-paleo foods. The past 3 days I have been eating paleo and my IBS…

Crossfit?
I think I get the basics of cross fit but can anyone really explain it to me? I'm really out of shape, will I have to work out to get to the point I can start cross fit? I'm really intimidated by it but I keep reading amazing things about it and people get results so I'm curious of course! Plus is seems to go hand in hand…

Caloric Intake/Not Eating Enough
We're doing more of a low-carb version of Primal. That's the best description I can come up with. However, I'm just not getting hungry right now. I've been hovering around 1100 calories the last 2 days, and very little of that is vegetation because it just doesn't sound good. Should I be worried, or is my body just…

What gives? weight loss stall out.... HELP!!!

Halfway through Whole30 and experiencing bloating...help?
So I am wrapping up day 17 of my first whole30 and have had an amazing experience this far. However, the past 3-4 days have been a little "off" in the bathroom (sorry TMI) and yesterday and today I am bloated as in I could have a human being in my tummy. I have been 100 compliant with my foods. Anyone have ideas? I believe…

Questions about fruit and losing weight
Hi! I just switched over to Paleo, recently, very recently as in yesterday. I have hit a major stall in weight loss. A little about me... I've lost 70 pounds and still have about 20-30 to lose. I work out 4 times a week, two times with a trainer doing crossfit type of workouts and the other two days weights and cardio. I…

Primal Eating and Running...
In the last few years I've run a lot, but more recently have spent more time cycling and hiking than running. I'm running a half marathon though on 11th May. My old pre marathon/half marathon way was to eat a couple of thick slices of bread covered in peanut butter topped with banana a few hours before the race. Does…

Paleo Staples
I'm sure this has been posted a million times, but what are your paleo staples? Things you buy almost every shopping trip and are always in your fridge because it's impossible to run out of due to the frequency of purchase. Some of Mine? --> Grass Fed Ground Beef Eggs Butter and coconut oil Greek yogurt Seasonal Veggies

Whole 30: No changes so far- love some support
Hi all, So years ago I changed over to Paleo when I suspected I had a gluten sensitivity- and I was right. Well, I never gave up sugar etc at that time, so thought I felt better I didn't feel awesome. Anyway- long story short- 2 years of grief and VLCD as a result of it, went off the wagon and was eating "gluten free"…

Protein, Fat & Carb Values
Hi All, I'm wondering if you have the values, (percentage of totals?) that I should be shooting for regarding protein, fat and carbs if I'm eating Paleo? For example, I saw one diet that said 20% fat, 20% protein, and 60% carbs, but I have a feeling that the Paleo values would be significantly different.

Calories in Medium Cooked Bacon
I don't like crispy bacon, and I like it more fat than most. I cook it until the edges are a touch crisp and then I call it done. My calories are way more than crispy cooked bacon. Does anyone know the nutrition content for soggy bacon? lol

Whole 30: Who's following ALL the rules?
I am currently on day 26 of my first Whole 30. I have found it to be a pretty pleasant experience, but since I was following a pretty strict paleo diet before hand, maybe that's why. I have not had ANY food that is off plan, but I am having kind of a hard time following the rest of the rules. Some of the ones I mean are…

Slowing down my metabolism?
I noticed that for the past week or so, I haven't been as hungry as I normally am (with the exception of the other night after I left the gym). I feel as if I am getting enough calories (I am eating until satisfied), but I have been extremely slacking on my diary! It's like I just have no appetite all of a sudden. My…

Chia seeds?
I've read mixed reviews on how paleo-"kosher" chia seeds are. Loren Cordain seems to be against, the primal guy Sisson seems to think they're okay. I'm probably going to eat them anyway, because Chia seed "pudding" makes me happy. But I was just curious on how others felt.

Do I really HAVE TO give up all artificial sugars? I drink sooo much flavored water. I will give it up if necessary, but that will definitely be the hard part for me.... And I really want to continue doing my protein with pb2 after my runs, I know it's not really Paleo. Everything else I have no issues with. Just those 2…
