States in the order I have lived in them: NY, NV, IL, VA... lst's just hope I don't move otherwise that name is out the window! ;-)

Think positively - I am sure all is well :) Good luck!

Thank you all so much for your input and advice! My OB definitely thinks that this could be a result of the change in diet and weight loss (~9 lbs in the past <6 weeks). She said typically any significant weight loss or gain can affect our cycles and that removing things from your diet altogether can have the same effect.…

Thank you! We'll see what the doc says this afternoon. :)

This. My diary is public. Click my name and you will see the option to view my diary.

That's awesome! How amazing to have gone into a check-up after thinking that things were getting worse only to find out the opposite! Hooray!! LOL, I agree ichorica! That was in fact my excuse for quite some time! :)

How long have you eaten Paleo? 5 weeks What's your favorite Paleo Approved Meal? Meat (steak, pork, chicken) and salad What's your favorite Paleo Approved Snack? Almonds, Apples, or Emmy's Organics Macaroons (YUM!) What's the biggest/best change you have seen in yourself by being Paleo? No more acid reflux, energy, weight…

Intersting - I have never heard of 5-HTP! I will have to check it out at the stores to see if it's readily available. Thanks for the tip!

I currently take: Woman's Once-A-Day Multi-Vitamin Biotin (also have not experience acne, and I have been taking this for years) B-12 You make a good point regarding calcium as I do not eat dairy either. Maybe I should start... I also need to start upping my veggies that have calcium like broccoli. What is 5-HTP?

Hello, Tuesday! I am newer to Paleo (about 4 weeks in) and I do need to start including exercise into my routine, but I do my best to log every day (I am a calorie counter by nature). My diary is also open, so feel free to add me as a friend, or even just take a look! I would love to hear some of your advice for being…

I won't nix fruit altogether... not only do I like it a lot, but I also hate to waste! Today was a good day in terms of energy level and overall body wellness. Thank you for your advice!

Thanks again! I changed my settings to: Carbs = 20%, Protien = 35%, and Fat = 45%. I also consumed roughly 200 more calories than I am "supposed" to today. Let's see how this goes :-) Thanks again!

Thank you all again for some great feedback! I have changed my goal settings to Protein = 40% (120g), Fat = 30% (40g) and Carbs at 30% (90g). Hopefully this will help me stay on track better. I will also add some more avocado and fattier (but still healthy) meats and remove the high(er) intake of fruits. I generally use…

Thank you guys for your input! I will take your advice and add some more protien and fat into my diet, and remove the high-carb fruit/veggies like bananas and tomatoes (I do love me some tomatoes though! :-( ). Aside from adding more meat (I do not eat seafood, so I am referring to chicken, pork, and beef mainly here), do…

I love the idea of chaning your meals to times! Question, on Paleo, what do you folks adjust your Daily Nutritional Goals to (e.g. Carbs, Protien, Fat, etc.)?

This. I am about the same. I hit ~20-30 grams of fiber per day and get it solely from raw fruits and veggies. I have tried things like Fiber One and Metamucil, however I did have adverse effects, such as bloating and irregularity. I would try replacing the supplement with fruits/veggies for a week and see how you feel.

I had similar problems too trying to find bras that worked (34F myself) - especially strapless! Fantasie is a GREAT brand and the best strapless I have ever used! They range from $56 to ~$100 in price, but they last a long time and are great quality. They are sold in Nordtroms. If you don't have one, you can also order…
