I'm interested.

I'd like to join.

I bought a Paleo bundle last year and it came with the Primal Blueprint Meal Plan from Mark Sisson. I really enjoyed it and I tried some different things I wouldn't normally cook. It's $10/month. May be worth trying for one month. I still use several of his recipes. I had this for lunch today :happy: Zucchini Egg Bake…

I have some ground beef in the fridge I need to use tonight. Any suggestions?

I use a very similar recipe and it taste just like mayo to me. 1 egg, room temp 1 tsp dijon mustard 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 cup of "light tasting" olive oil Put all ingredients in a wide mouth jar and insert immersion blender. Once blender sits on bottom of jar, turn on for 30-45 seconds and you have mayo.

Zucchini Egg Bake - One of my favs! I usually make this for supper. It came from Primal Blueprint Meal Plan INGREDIENTS 4 Tbs butter ¼ cup finely chopped onion 2 lbs zucchini, grated 1/2 lb ground Italian sausage or other ground meat 3 eggs, beaten ⅓ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 350°F.…

http://www.nwedible.com/2013/02/magically-fast-and-easy-homemade-mayonnaise.html I was looking for the original recipe I used, this one is close. I simple use one egg, one cup olive oil, a squirt of lemon juice, teaspoon Dijon mustard. The immersion blender is the KEY. I bought it specifically for mayo as I had tried the…

I make my own mayonnaise and add adobo seasoning for a great salad dressing.

I take my homemade mayo and add Adobo seasoning and there ya go, ranch dressing :)

I tried to plan my whole30 around any said events but something always pops up. I was on about day 20 when I meet up with a large group at a restaurant for a going away party. EVERYONE was drinking and someone even brought in one of my favs and I held strong. I drank a TON of water - same effect as drinking beer - I was in…

I take two ripe bananas and some cocoa powder and blend. Pour into the little popsicle makers and freeze. Excellent no sugar added dessert. I also do bananas with other fruits minus the cocoa powder. Enjoy!

I am on day 22! Good luck!

Sara - My toughest struggle I think will be the drinking also. The other day I had a very stressful day at work and it was friday and I wanted to have a drink sooo bad. :drinker: But I didn't! I guess since I got over that hurdle I can do this! You can too! Tonya

Hi Sara! I am on day 10 today of the Whole30. So far so good. I think I am just starting to get over that no energy phase. Good Luck!

Thanks shuki_cotren for the recipes. Last night I did homemade mayo with adobe seasoning and a little water. Best salad ever. I will try your ranch recipe tonight. Day 9 here I come :flowerforyou:

Hi! I am on day 8! I really didn't think I could do it, but so far so good:smile: http://www.kitchenkonfidence.com/2013/04/homemade-olive-oil-mayonnaise This is the recipe I used for homemade mayo - not as much patience required (as I too had a liquid mayo the first time.) I was looking fo ra breakfast sausage recipe -…

DITTO!

Yesterday was a success. Just for today - LOOOOOWW sugar intake :)

FYI - In my neck of the woods, I have noticed that Walmart, Sam's, Kroger and Publix all stock KerryGold butter.

Just for today has really worked for me in the past. Thanks for the reminder. Just for today I am going to eat the right foods.

I am similar to the previous poster. I generally only eat between 12pm and 6pm. I have bullet proof coffee in the am and eat lunch around 12, 1230, and I try to eat dinner by 600. When I stick to that plan I do really well with weight loss. And I am not hungry during my fasting period.

I will hit 80 tomorrow :bigsmile: and I am proud of it. Can't wait to get to the triple digits.

Another Primal Blueprint Meal Plan Recipe Smoked Sausage and Cabbage

Freeze some of your cooked meals and save them for those days.

I switched from artificial sweetner to the sparkling water or club soda. And just this weekend I started with infused water. Delicious. You could infuse water with strawberries and lemon. Just add a few cut up strawberries and a slice or two of lemon to about 2 quarts water for a few hours or overnight. Good Luck!

• Gender: Female • Age: 42 • Starting weight: 237 • Current weight: 211.8 • Goal weight: 175 • What are your reasons for wanting to lose/gain weight? I want to lose weight to be healthy and to feel better in my own skin. And because my awesome BF deserves a good looking woman at his side. • Tell me a bit about your past……

For me personally, I have to watch my sugar to lose weight so I restrict that to one or less fruits a day. Although it is natural sugar (and much better for you than any other kind of sugar) it still gives you an insulin spike. And as I am trying to eat primal - eat all the eggs you want .

Perfect Primal Pizza from the Primal Blueprint Meal Plan

I mash half a banana and 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with a dash of cinnamon! So good!
