    in Dry January Challenge, roll up and join in! Comment by slimjaques January 2016
  • Oh honey - I am so sorry for your loss - my heart breaks for you. Like many others have said - do what feels best to you. If staying on track provides a center of gravity for a turbulent time, do it. If ignoring calories for this particular season feels better, do that. Take care of yourself. <3

  • Hi all - getting back on paleo myself. Did 30 days early this year and felt AMAZING and lost weight that I had trouble losing any other way. Then... Well, I'm back! I struggle most with the evening hours. Seem to want to snack even if not hungry. Stocked up on great foods at home, have mostly cleared out the pantry - but…

  • Hi there! I try to cook a few things on Sunday and then pack them into glass bowls to take to work. Easy to grab in the morning. My FAVORITE is Curry Chicken - (I do several types) - packed with veggies and made with whole coconut milk. This week, I have an artichoke/chicken/tomato stew going. Paleo chili (OMG - the BEST!)…

  • Hi there! We just started the 30-day Paleo Solution Challenge (Robb Wolf book) at our house 17 days ago. Husband, daughter and me. Making great progress. There are lots (so many) recipes on pinterest - and on different blogs. Most suggest that you start by keeping the food simple rather than trying to recreate things like…

  • Probably too new to even offer an opinion - but I know it is working. My daughter, husband and I started the 30-day challenge 16 days ago and have lost a combined 22 pounds. For me, I was having a lot of difficulty losing weight using the same approach I had used the rest of my life. The big differences: No processed…

  • Hello fellow Paleo-ites! My husband, daughter and I are all doing the Paleo Solution challenge for 30 days. We are all losing weight and feeling terrific. I was very skeptical as I have been a big supporter of variety and just keeping calores in check - and working out. I have been a good weight most of my life but have…

  • My husband and I just started having one glass of fresh juice made in our juicer every day after work. It's a much better choice than the glass of wine we had been having! The rest of our meals have been roughly the same calorie count but the weight loss kicked in this week when we started adding the juice (yes, and…

    in 20lbs by Christmas- who's with me? Comment by slimjaques September 2013
  • Love all the comments! For me, it's like what newbritt says - maybe the problem isn't so much the alcohol as the stuff I eat after the alcohol. I am PERFECT on days with no alcohol - and always go over if I drink - unless it is just one light beer or one glass of red wine. White wine is my enemy when I'm working on losing…

  • I'm new (again) but am on day 3 of the Body for Life for Women program. 5 small meals a day - 5 lean proteins, 5 carbs (fruits, legumes, whole grains) and a couple of fats. Lost 4 pounds. Working out 5-6 days a week with at least 30 minute cardio plus weights. Also just started slim in six. I have 3 months to lose 20…
    in What diet method are you using and Is it working for you? Comment by slimjaques April 2013
  • Favorite from Mediteranean Prescription: Juice one orange and one lemon, marinate salmon in the juice for 15-20 minutes. Remove from marinade - salt and pepper - grill for 20 minutes (10 each side) in a veggie or fish basket. Amazing. Takes that fishy taste out of any kind of salmon we have tried. Prefer fresh caught for…
