(not egg beaters that crap has chemicals and coloring added). I also love individually packaged tilapis from and grocery store..easy to thaw and cook for lean protein on top of a…
  • Hmmmm think my post was deleted. I use an awesome Paleo protein powder..use a pea based protein.. hormone free..its really great. I am actually dairy and gluten intolerant and this one is perfect for me. Merrikh brand. Have to google. :)
  • Yep! I am actually gluten and dairy intolerant and lost 6 lbs within the first week! Mostly trying to add muscle right now and decrease body fat..not strictly lose weight- but I eat very clean.. as in..only fresh foods- fruit, veggies, nuts, seeds egg whites, etc..

  • I love the 200 calorie nut mixes from PLanters or add avocado to your salad or use some coconut oil when cooking. High density calories with healthy fats! Should help!

  • But body composition isnt ALL based on weight. I have barely moved the scale..and I dont even care as I have dropped a size. Add muscle. Forget the scale. Changes will come.
  • I personally love my Polar Ft40... Has a chest strap- which I dont mind and transmits HR to watch. The watch beeps when you get below or above your target heart rate for optimal calorie burn (calculated byt the personal data you enter in) PLus..it comes in pink so I was SOLD ;)

  • When I start feeling low on sugar/carbs I always heat up a sweet potato and it really seems to help me! I don;t like much in my stomach before or right after a workout..but try to eat as asoon as I recover. If I really feel I just need SOMETHING..but not sungry yet, I can usually handle a spoonful of almond butter or a…

Gluten and dairy intolerant (orange) and high fructose corn syrup, garlic and onions in my red! That's how I finally ended up going "paleo" and the results of the test added a few more…
  • Hmmmmm...are you sure you are eating enough calories prior to the days when the bingeing happens?? Sometime I get ravenous and nothing can help me if I am working out and undereating.. same for days when I accidentally miss breakfast. Also if you have a planned once a week treat or cheat day or cheat meal..it helps take…
  • HI!!!! I am Paleo as well- Gluen and dairy intolerant and PCOS as well! I can tell you it has changed my life in about 2 months.

(ok pervs...not…
  • Let me know when you find out! Think I stay around 1200-1400..but depending on my workouts end up super hungry the next day...not losing anything but have been adding muscle..so I have no idea where I am at! Losing inches though.

  • Hmmmm I will definitely look into that- thank you for the suggestions! Is the compression gear like shorts/socks or like tape?
  • I know there are tons of opionion on this and you can spend all kinds of $$- but I really liked the LEan Body for her shakes- individual packets, can find at HEB (boxes of 30) Vanilla is great and can add frozen fruits. Taste good, 130 calories high protein lower sugars.
  • Thank you especially to my Houston people- went over to Lukes on my lunch break and got a beautiful new pair of Brooks- LOVE them!!!!!!!
  • Aleve?! Thats adorable... I have autoimmune arthritis..so i am already on a daily anti imflammatory...there is NO helping my inflammtion! I'm always super hydrated and eat clean..so trust me I am doing what I can on that front! Just hoping to find something that could possibly offer more support...I may be too messed up in…
  • I am a big fan of vanilla protein powder- and using unsweetened vanilla almond milk- it only has 30 calories for 8 oz- so you can add fruits in as well and not go much over 300 calories- which is perfect for breakfast or post workout snack! I use Merrick Paleo Protein Powder because it works well with my dairy and gluten…
  • Protein will make you big?? I'm not following.. lol. I have a protein shake every morning! Would much rather be full of protein and not sugars and carbs which end up making you crave more sugars and carbs! I guess if you're getting one with high calorie fats and sugars in it. I think it depends on what you would like to…

I do 4.2 miles in an hour and burn 450 calories! Its great! If I even attempted to run it would be one sad @ss little half mile without near…
