    in Serving sizes offered on this sight.... Comment by vtroys October 2014
  • There are so many of you all....I'm 44, new to myfitnesspal. I've gained a lot of weight since having a baby at 36 (3 attempts with IVF and it finally paid off). I've also changed careers, studied and passed CPA exams and have dealt many years with plantar fasciitis. We are a family of 5 - 3 boys (18,16, 8). Since passing…

  • Enjoy no period! 40+ years is such a long time to have to deal with periods (18 - 58). I'd be thrilled. Talk to your dr...if they don't find anything wrong, relax. I am out of eggs, so almost no period for me. I'd love no period at all!

  • Plan ahead; eat 1/2 your meal when served or if you can order light fare try that; make good choices like grilled foods vs fried; have water on you always.

  • Sorry about everything happening in your life, but I'm happy to hear your staying on task with Paleo - kudos! I think you hit the nail on the head -- folks stress too much about what they can't have and don't appreciate all that they can have. I'm not perfect on Paleo, but I do try very hard. Have you seen the cookbook…
    in Still paleo Comment by vtroys October 2014
  • I agree, just get back at it on Monday AM! Try to think "portion control" even if you are indulging. If I am stuck on a day/weekend like this, I feel successful if I end the weekend having eating just a little better than i would have the last time faced with the same situation. You may not be perfect, but if you are…

  • Research intermittent fasting...you eat from 11 am to 7 pm....it is interesting.
    in Breakfast? Comment by vtroys October 2014
  • I hear you - I'm 100 lbs overweight and have used my body pains as an excuse (plantar fasciitis is just horrible). However, here are my thoughts for you: 1) You can exercise all you want, but if you don't eat right, you won't lose. I have a seditary job, so I try to do both. 2) The more I move, the less I ache. Believe it…

  • Keep a food diary ... aka here on myfitnesspal & measure/weight everything or learn size comparisons so you can guestimate better.
    in Looking for some advice... Can't seem to lose (or even maintain) weight. Comment by vtroys October 2014
  • Told you, I'm 98%! :) Maybe I'm less after reading all of your posts. I ate a ceasar chix salad last night and ait 1 Tbs Chez and I lost .8 lbs yesterday after eating well, no grains and spinning for 1 hr at the gym. I'll keep doing what I do I guess....maybe I'm Paleo like, but not exact. LOL

  • I agree with this too ..... I make it a goal but don't beat myself up if I slip in this or that on occasion. My biggest goal is to remove processed foods and minimize grains/sugars. I'm a cross really between Clean Eating and Paleo. I like yoru quote - "it's healthy eating".

  • -Get the cookbook - Against All Grains. It's fabulous! - I totally believe in the what Paleo is all about. I'm 98% Paleo. If I have a ceasar salad with chicken, I may sprinkle 1 Tbs of parm chez on it but I skip the crutons. If I really crave a glass of milk once a week, I drink it. I do my very bust however to stay away…
