  • Congrats! Can you be more specific in what you did? I am new to Paleo (19 days and counting). I am also counting calories (I know that is a no-no) but I can't help it. I'm obssessed. I try to stay in the 1200 calorie range, and like you, I am hungry. What is IF?
  • You are all giving great advice and is sounds so do-able. And yes, I am trying for a quick fix at losing the weight....but I do want to keep it off and I do want to be healthly. I will forget about the quick fixes and really try to focus on health and hopefully this will work out. I'm trying not to give excuses, but…
  • Thanks LeenaGee. I don't normally drink alcohol; only on occasion, if any so that was not an issue. The bread and cheese are VERY difficult. I LOVE LOVE cheese. I cold turkey cut it out of my diet along with the bread. I do feel proud that I am doing well. It's not easy since my husband and children are all not on board…
  • I hear what you are all saying, and thank you for the advice. I am on day 18 of Paleo and so far, the first two weeks, I gained almost a pound.

  • I hear what you are both saying (Clutch and Akimajuktuq), but I am also afraid tha the whole egg has so many more calories that egg whites. I am really trying to stay at my 1200 a day goal, so it is very difficult to choose what to eat.
  • lizparis72614- I understand how you feel. I've been married almost 20 years. I was 102 pounds when I got married. I am only 5'2'' so I might have been a bit thin. A year after getting married, I stopped smoking and gained 10 pounds and looked very healthy. Then I got pregnant. I gained 60 pounds for each of my 3…
  • MrsBailey149- Hi Nicole, so...how did your first day go?
  • cindytw- thanks for responding. I am trying full on Paleo. NO pizza or pancakes. I did make my own Paleo muffins, but ate them sparingly. I am mostly eating grilled chicken, salad, and omelettes. I eat basically chicken, eggs, spinach, swiss chard, kale and mushrooms. I had a visit with my diteician yersterday (who…
  • To ClutchBone: Thanks for the reply and advice. I won't give up. I will continue to eat all Paleo and hope for better results in the coming weeks.
  • Hi all, i just started the Paleo diet which was recommended by my dietician. I have always been thin, but gained about 30 punds the last few years and can't lose the weight. I am on Paleo for 11 days now and not only have I NOT lost any weight, I seemed to have gained 2 pounds. I am following to a tea all the recipes so I…
