thank you for the website

First day.....all raw veggies and it is now time for bed, but I do feel a bit hungry I had no dressings of any kind, salt or sugar.

Hello Tracy........I am Petra and I have been doing Primal since June and I am at present doing a Whole 30, and I also lean more towards Paleo, however I miss Cheese big time.....but in the beginning I ate way to much Fruit and Nuts as well, and I made tons and tons of mistakes, but I am slowly learning and I have received…

I stopped doing Bulletproof Coffee, before it always put me over in Calories, and I guess that is why I am confused, because I have been told a Calorie is a Calorie and they do matter, but today I was also told that my Sodium Content is to high....so with that said, I will up my Fat intake again and I'll be more careful…

that's not funny......I had that happen with the lindt 95% but I thought I just won't buy it anymore to dark for my liking

It sounds divine., can't wait to try it out:flowerforyou:

I've been doing pretty much every morning I will have my bulletproof and then nothing till about 1 sometimes 2....but my problem is when Evening hits, then I eat to much and always have the urge to snack, so now I'm doing a 2 day fast eat 5, but of course my meals are more paleo then primal.

oh my gosh he looks good

oh you guys are making me hungry the planet box.......do you take your food cold? Is there a way to heat them up, just wondering because they look like stainless steel

Thanks for posting this, I really enjoyed reading it. I will regard my fat as parasite from now on ....it sure made me smile, but I'm so glad to know that we are on the right track, it proves with just another affirmation

I finished reading the book, and I know I was torn on doing Whole 30 without a total commitment, like sneaking in my butter and taking a break for our Thanksgiving next weekend, so officially........I'm sorry but I will not be joining you guys for this month, if I do it I will do it right or not at all. I will most likely…

oh my gosh........that is almost impossible, but I guess it can be done, but it won't be easy Cerebrus but I'm rooting for you

I am thinking of joining, but I would have to have a cheat day for Thanksgiving.....grin.....:)

Thanks guys......great thoughts, it kind of reflects how I feel to do my own version, however.....I have to finish reading the book and I think we are so obsessed with calorie consumption on eating to many. I will do whole 30 again, but I don't see why I need to cut the Butter.........that is the one thing I so love, and…

I hear you on the eating changes....I ponder that myself all the time, thinking how obsessed I was with food, it was always on my mind, yes I make mistakes and had some cheats, but I have had no wheat of any kind for the last 80 some days, and that is huge, I might have had soy sauce and Rice in my sushi, and Ice-cream oh…

Don't forget with all the changes and eating pretty much clean it takes 2 years for the body to heal itself.......so changes will happen but it won't be overnight, stick with it, your doing wonderful

Oh, but I'm in Canada, our Thanksgiving is different then the states it is I believe October 7 and 8th

I lasted 7 days and then I had my Anniversary, and wanted to start over, but then I thought with Thanksgiving coming up and the Wine will be flowing at my house, I had better wait till November.

coconut aminos ...I paid a lot more then $9.00 it was 8 ounces and took the price sticker off the bottle so husband would not see it....it was more like 14.95, I guess I have to look into online shopping

I can't wait to get my stats done, I will wait until my Whole 30 is completed and I am now on day 6 but in the meantime not sure if you all know, my Blood Sugar is under control and I am off Metformin My Blood Pressure is down quite a bit and most of the time in the normal range, that is huge for me My Sleeping Pills…

My downfall is fruit....so I learned to just stay away from it, I kept it down to one fruit a day, but now that I am doing whole 30, I don't eat fruit, and I have no cravings whatsoever. I am only on day 4 mind you, so I hope I don't get sugar cravings.

It is hard to be so honest with yourself and taking pics like that is never easy, but I can see the shape even in the August pics how you are firming up ever slight but still there and then quite visible for September, you are doing well, and congrats for being so gutsy I don't think I can do that yet, if ever. but I…

I had prescription sleeping pills and I went off them when I started being primal........sleeping like a baby without them give it a bit of time and don't sweat over it, I used to toss and turn and be up all night......listen to Mark Sisson about sleep, I am now doing Whole 30 and I am on day 4 and I sleep like a rock at…

Where is your Walmart? I don't have any near me.....nobody carries meat around here except for some frozen things, but I will have to check next time I go to a Super Walmart

They don't call it Sugar Addiction for nothing. If you don`t buy it, then you won`t be tempted and tell your hubby to keep it at work and not bring it home, recent article I read Sugar is the number 1 killer out there. Self-control is very hard...it`s like a tub of ice-cream, I could eat the whole thing if it`s in the…

I wonder about the leg cramps I had them too, about 2 weeks ago and that was with me being primal at that time, I hope you post what you find out about it.

okay, lol Day 1......29 to go:laugh:

Well, I just totally blew it....and it was totally planned, so yesterday I had this huge Ham Bone, so I made homemade split pea and bean soup....oh it was so good, but the pain after, not so good......did I learn........no, when I blow it I blow it huge,so today after work, to the old Chinese buffet that I USED to…

That is just wonderful, amazing results!!!

Did your Doctor give you a print out of your results? not sure if I read everything right......the dates are the same and you said newest first, or am I totally reading it wrong
