  • Thank you all for the welcome! You have some great ideas. I think I'll have to stock up on almond milk and maybe try the olive oil mayo until I can find a good recipe to try. I've been reading some of the sites in one of the other threads about the differences between Paleo and Primal and it seems I'm a bit more Primal…

  • So, instead of very strictly primal, I guess I'm kind of doing a variation while I get used to it. I'm hoping to eventually completely cut out the dairy since I'm a bit lactose intolerant but I still haven't gotten the hang of black coffee that isn't iced and no matter how many almond cheeses I try, none of them get the…
  • Right now I just do my exercise bike at home but a lot of that is because I can't do a whole lot because I get muscle spasms. I just feel too self-conscious at the gym only being able to work out for 10-15 minutes at a time.

  • Definitely single here, liking it more some days than others.
  • OK, little goals for the rest of the month: 1. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day 2. Eat more vegetables 3. No soda and no sugar in my coffee (ouch!)

  • One of my favorites is a grilled chicken breast topped with grilled mushrooms, sliced roma tomatoes, avocado and feta. Awesome lunch and lots of protein. Sometimes I'll leave off the tomato and do swiss instead of feta. I don't have it very often, but when I do it's a treat!
  • You can add me too if you'd like. This is my first time on here and I haven't been doing it very long. I'm hoping that all the tracking and stuff will help me stay motivated and see bad patterns so I can have results.
