I eat all that others have mentioned but I also like paleo pancakes made with almond flour. Today I made spinach pancakes I adapted from other pancake recipies along with liversausage and tomatoes. Yum!

My husband makes fun of me but years of experience has taught me that as soon as I get up in the morning and go to the bathroom I weigh myself. That is always my lightest weight and eliminates the possible variables. That's my opinion. How about you? What do you think? :smile:

What great advice! I'm so impressed with your views. You should write a book.

Glad you have made the decision to improve your health. Good job! I've been reading the posts to your question and wanted to respond myself because I have a somewhat different perspective. I have Celiac Disease so have to avoid gluten and have for 20 to 25 years. It helped quite a bit but I have qained and gained on a GF…

Do you have a recipe for the Paleo Power Bars.

I have some Tzatzaki in the fridge and will try this for lunch. I don't mind Mayo and love tuna salad but this sounds like a very appealing change. Thanks.

Hi! I have Celiac Disease and must avoid gluten. But since November I have been eating mostly Paleo and I've NEVER felt so good. Weight is coming off easily and I'm always finding new recipes in Paleo cookbooks I find on my kindle. Feel free to friend me if this is helpful.

In our area the Amish grocery stores usually have Coconut Oil (they are somewhat oriented towards healthy eating). I can get a gallon of it for $16 US here in Wisconsin (and Iowa).

Very definately I can see a difference in your body but also your coloring looks healthier. Wonderful. Helpful too to see you in the same clothes.

Your experience is exactly the same as mine. Once I quit eating any foods with sugar or sugar subsittute of any kind I literally do not feel hungry - ever! I don't need snacks, I eat pure, bare naked foods, no artificial ingredients and I am satisfied. It works for me.

I grew up having mashed up avocado spread on bread with a little salt. Yum! Just scoop it out of shell and use a fork to mash it up. A little lemon juice keeps it from turning brown (but if you eat it right away that is no problem). Cut it up raw on salads, make guacamole (avocado, onion, tomato, lemon juice, garlic, hot…

I had the same problem; nothing worked no matter how hard I tried - until I cut out ALL SUGARS, ALL GRAIN OF ANY KIND. I eat only lean meats, veggies - not starch, berries, nuts, dark chocolate once in a blue moon as a treat. The weight is is steadily coming off.(I lost about 15 lbs before I joined MFP.) Check out Primal…

I agree. I've turned to almond flour to my diet and am very satisfied with the pancakes, etc I can eat on my Paleo diet. I've found Paleo Cookbooks are necessary for me to get in the paleo mindset. Wish I could find an affordable almond flour though.

I follow a Paleo Diet. I made the change sometime before Thanksgiving. I has amazed me that I no longer have any cravings and easily stay under my calorie goals to lose the weight I need to lose. I'm 66 years old so I've had struggles for a long time. I'm gluten intolerant so I've had problems with food for most of my…

Your body needs some fat in order to process calories. Just eat in moderation! But also my experience is that if you CRAVE something; you might be allergic to it. Just a thought.
