Bulletproof Coffee - recipe calls for 4 cups?
Hi everyone. I'm new to paleo/primal - Day 5 I believe. Anyways I've heard everyone raving about Bulletproof Coffee and I found the recipe online but it calls for 4 cups of black coffee.

What's for dinner?
I'd love to see what others are eating to stick to Paleo as well as lose weight. I have been sticking to big salads with lots of veggies, balsamic vinagrette and grilled chicken. I know that is going to get boring so need to start planning ahead.

PALEObucks -how do you like your coffee?
This is just meant to be a fun topic. I've been trying to lay off coffee during the week because I would like to reduce my anxiety. The other day, I couldn't bear without it so i decided to stop and get a coffee from Dunkin Donuts. Then I realized, how am I supposed to order coffee to make it paleo friendly? haha I…

Starting my Paleo Lifestyle Today!
Hi everyone, I'm not new to MFP (I have created a new account, though. New life, new name, etc. Fresh start!) Today is my first day of the Paleo lifestyle. I have been having some stomach issues and wanted to cut out gluten, then I rediscovered Mark Sisson's book on my kindle and decided I wanted to give it a whirl. For 30…

Eating nose-to-tail
I know we are supposed to be incorporating all parts of the animal into our diet, not just muscle meat, for health reasons and balance but organ meat doesn't appeal to me having grown up on the SAD. How do you incorporate more parts of animals in your diets? Tell me about your organ meat recipes and experiences please. I…

day 2. i'm new
Hi all, I am on day 2 of my 30day paleo start. I'm going to do strict 30 days and then tweak it from there. So far so good. I got a little worried because I didn't get very many calories in yesterday. But I bought some almond butter, avocados, coconut oil and walnuts to try and fix that problem! I would love some paleo/…

Hi everyone, I just started this site yesterday and primarily joined to learn more about the paleo lifestyle. I've been reading up on it but wanted to hear from actual users and their success rate. My wife started about a month ago and would like me to do so as well. We are hoping to start a family in the next year and we…

salad dressing?
I'm really wanting to go 100% primal soon. I feel like the hardest thing for me to give up is going to be regular salad dressings. I love them all!! Any primal suggestions?

Paleo meal
I just sauteed some chicken patties and thought I'd share. I took 2 pounds of ground chicken, 1 cooked sweet potato(no skin), shredded zucchini and carrot, chopped baby spinach, some herbs/spices. I sauteed in coconut oil. Yum. The flavor possibilities are endless since chicken takes to flavors so well. I just used onion…

Ice Cream. ICE CREAM!
Oh, yes. Ice cream. Why? Because, let's face it: ice cream is awesome. Whether it's a really hot day and you need something cool, or if you just want something sweet and creamy after dinner, ice cream hits the spot like nothing else. But can it be enjoyed on a Paleo/Primal lifestyle? Hell freaking yes, says I. So, for that…

OMG, my dog ate a huge can of bacon grease :(
I didn't want to put this on the open forums, but I am sure the title will draw a few people, haha. My bf (unbeknownst to me) was keeping a can of bacon grease beneath the sink (???!!) My dog ate the whole thing and now has gotten very sick :( I know we cook with it, in small doses, but does anyone know if it is dangerous…

How to get more protein?
I'm looking to increase my protein to 100-125g/day. Currently I average about 50-75g. I don't want to resort to protein powders (nothing against them, I would just rather eat real food). Any suggestions? I already eat 3 eggs at breakfast and some sort of meat at lunch & dinner. I have no trouble meeting my fat or carb…

Paleo Ratios for Ulimate Fat Loss???
I am trying to figure this paleo thing out but am totally confused. What are the correct carb/protein/fat ratios for optimal fat loss? Alos, are there easy and quick recipes? Everything I find on the internet is very detailed and lengthy recipes.

Vinegar...yay or nay?
I have committed to starting a Whole 30 tomorrow and I am trying to get everything ready and everything that I need so I have enough good choices in the house to make this as easy as possible. Truth be told, I have been eating a lot of salads with dressing that, while not terrible doesn't really fit in with paleo/whole 30…

Bone broth jello!
I finally got my broth to be gelatinous. I know it wasn't anything I did, really, except use different bones. I had been using marrow bones from Whole Foods but this time I used bones I had been saving up from several meals(most came from beef short ribs). I just took it out of the fridge to scoop off the fat and it was…

Protein
How/what do you eat to meet you protein goals? I feel like I'm eating a ton of meat and eggs, but I'm consistently below my protein macro. I'm doing lower carb and no dairy right now and I'm trying to stay away from nuts because my goal is weight loss (and health).

To Log or Not to Log? That is the question.
So, I'm wondering if I should be logging. I'm finding I'm planning my meals and doing well coming in where I should be, but often under. When I'm under, I find myself trying to add foods to bring up my calories - even if I'm not hungry. I've only been at this for about 2 months, so I'm not sure I'm where I need to be to…

Tendergrass farms deal from MDA
I just saw this on MDA... Spend $200 on organic/grassfed/pastured meats from Tendergrass Farms, and get 4 turkey breast roasts (2lbs each) free, and get free shipping. Not sure if any paleo/primal people are looking to stock their freezers, but this might not be a bad time to do it.…

Nuts -nay or yay?
Hey everyone! I just started Paleo today and was wondering about nuts. This is specifically for those who were initially trying to lose weight on the Paleo. I would like to continue a Paleo lifestyle after I lose weight but for now, I really want to lose extra pounds I've put on. When you were focusing on losing weight,…

Primal/paleo win?
Wondering if this was a luck thing or if primal/paleo explains it better...I think I know the answer but I would love to hear what you all think.... So, this past Sunday I decided to run a half marathon with my hubby. It was his first...I have a few under my belt as well as one marathon (so far). Here's the kicker, I…

Exercise
How much does everyone exercise while eating on the Paleo? Do you eat more if you have more intense workouts? I am training for a half marathon and I am running in the AM and strength training in the PM. This is roughly 800-1000 cals I burn in a day but my cal limits is set to 1200 because I want to lose weight. Usually, I…

realistic protein/fat in pastured meat?
In some places I've been able to find reasonable options in the food database for pastured meat; pastured poultry seems to be a different matter. I generally cook pastured poultry with the skin on and bones in and use both the dark and white meats together for meals. I'm getting really tired of winging it and choosing…
