I'm starting to lose track...what day are we on, from when it was first posted.

I think newbies are better off to leave those foods alone, I am afraid to get cravings for more, and perhaps a seasoned paleo/primal can handle it better once in a while........after all, we are human and we have our pitfalls, correct me if I'm wrong. I have been reading a lot of blogs on paleo.

This morning I had my first cup of coffee with both butter and coconut oil and it was good but I had to keep stirring otherwise everything was on top of the cup. The second cup I put into my vitamix and blended everything on high...and it was very delicious so I will now keep my vitamix on the counter. I was worried what…

In that case I will add butter and coconut oil starting tomorrow morning...I don't eat in the morning and if I don't get hunger pangs which at the moment I don't have and would like to keep it that way.

Why do you put butter and or coconut oil in coffee, is it because you don't like it black?

oh my gosh.......how did you get food poisoning? I hope you will be better by then

I am 2 weeks without wheat and sugar in my diet......and yes it was hard at first (breadlover) but now........I feel great and want to shout it from the roof tops. The energy I have gained is indescribable I even ran barefoot in the rain yesterday, I just sprinted. I am not nuts, I am not, but my family looked at me as if…

I'm down 2.2 pounds, so that is a total of 3.2 in 8 days.......not bad. We even had a party on the weekend and I did not touch any cake or desert, the only thing I allowed myself was 1 fresh Strawberry from the table, which I forgot to record on my diary, but even with that I did not go over. I have not cheated, and stuck…

who sells it?

that is awesome, band or no band, I hope you are proud for doing it, and I wish you all the best and I'm sure you will lose the rest, (you don't look fat at all now) not sure how much more you want to lose. Once again Congrats to you

Yeah.....it''s been a week, and I had my up and downs but I'm still here, and I'm glad to see everyone else posting.

I just want to add one more thing...why do diets fail? Because we restrict our food intake, with paleo I don't think you have to if you eat the right things.....correct me if I'm wrong please.

Yes I agree, I tried to eat lightly with fruits, so many things ingrained into you over the years on how you should eat and how you shouldn't eat even for me it's still a learning experience, my start was dropping wheat and sugar, then I tried to do IF with only eating fruits till supper, so tomorrow I will adjust again…

I really like the wellness mama site, she is more blunt about things

I'm still doing it and going strong

Waiting for the primal blueprint to arrive at the library and the bookstore is out of it

I've been on the daily apple daily.....lol, just doing a lot of reading but I will check out the other one....thank you

bump to read later

at the moment it is 7.7 but still really good....after eating watermelon. which is pretty high on the sugar side(carb)

Non diabetic range should be anywhere from 4.5 up to 6

Day 6 is done.....however I had a lot of problems today.....tummy upset, bloated, dizzy spells, but on the upside my blood sugar level the 3 times I checked today was 5.4 and 5.4 and 6.2 I have not been that low since I became a diabetic.......and that is without metformin, I stopped taking the med 11 days ago when I…

it has been almost 24 hours......and I still feel crappy and bloated, and I drank a lot of water today and ate lightly

bean soup in the vita mix blender and mushed beans on the side with my cauliflower

after 7 days of morning fast and raw lunch eating.....having beans last night left me feeling unwell and bloated and of course the scale was up by about 4 pounds.

I call it the 200-300 Dollar Club

Day 5 done.....and I know in those days I lost 1 lb, so pretty good so far.......I have gone wheat free and today after finishing the book wheat belly I have decided to also start eliminating beans from my diet, the reason I am so strict is because I want to reverse my type 2 diabetes and beans will also spike my blood…

been reading a lot of paleo lately but at the moment I am reading wheat belly

I guess I have been posting in the wrong spot........day 4 is done.....and today I am way under calories and not even hungry
