Wow! Now I regret ignoring this thread for so long! I was just sort of naturally averse to a thread entitled "Panera Bread". <chuckle> The "hidden" menu items look scrumptious. It's good to know that if I am starving far from home, I could drop in Panera for a nice bite.

Welcome. On this group, you'll find a wide array of primal/paleo eaters with many different approaches and levels of "orthodoxy". There are bodies that range from from folks (like me) with 100+ lbs to shed to hardcore cross-fitters with <10% body fat. And it's all good! It's great to hear that you are experiencing relief…

OMG, Yum! Lamb is my all-time favorite protein. Will you marry me?

LOL! I definitely went NON-paleo on dessert last night. I had bought a huge tuxedo chocolate mousse cake for the boyz from Costco. They ate a third of it, I had one bite (it was alright; I didn't go nuts), and I carried a second third of it over to my neighbors who have been having rough times. The remaining third is…

About two weeks into my paleo journey, my new Tanita scale arrived. It measured my BF at 49.5%. Holy schmotz, I am 50% fat...how depressing is that??? <chuckle> The numbers have been slowly and steadily dropping down, though, so I do take note of them. I've got a ways to go before I get close to that lovely 20% BF, and…

Hello. I am new to Paleo (about 5 weeks), and obese with a significant amount of fat to shed, so I do take supplements. After I lose some fat, and really settle into a groove, I will probably discontinue some of these. I am *not* an expert on supplementation, so please don't take this as literal advice; it's just what I am…

I was hunting for good deals on coconut aminos recently too. I saw the Azure Standard, but wasn't prepared in that moment to call in to see if they had a drop in SE Michigan. I *did* however order a gallon of aminos from iherb.com for $58.00 (with free shipping on orders over $40). Had to snap up that deal...in a heartbeat!

UPDATE: I scored a gallon of coconut aminos for $58.10 (with free "expedited" shipping for orders over $40) from iherb.com. That oughta last me a good long while. Yay! Thanks for all the help.
-
Thanks for the tip. I'm a big amazon prime shopper, and I noticed that the deals on the aminos just didn't look so hot.

Meadows, I always make my own ghee, about 2 lbs of unsalted butter at a time. I store the bulk of it in the fridge or freezer...it's got a shelf-life of about 158 years. It's a messy job, but super-easy, and only takes about an hour or so. Store-bought ghee is extravagantly expensive.

Affirmative. I do bulletproof coffee every morning (dark roast coffee + 1 pat of Kerrygold + 1 Tbl. coconut oil + a teensy-tiny sprinkle of stevia). I buzz it all in my NutriBullet. Eggs scrambled with fresh spinach come an hour or two later.
-
Tee hee. I'm still a little high off that Kerrygold find at Costco. My regular grocery (Meijer) and local crunchy store (Better Health) *never* stock it. The ladies at the Costco check-out were chuckling at me because I was so geeked out! I felt like I was fondling little bricks of gold as I vacuum-packed that butter. My…

Greetings. I am brand new to MFP, to FitBit, to exercise, to eating healthy...the whole nine yards. I got my new FitBit One a few weeks ago, and just recently hooked it up with MFP. When the connection was complete, MFP threw up a screen containing a whole lot of info that seemed quite important, even though I didn't fully…
