He sounds pretty selfish... I think you can do better. If he is not attracted to you both of yall should move on. It doesnt sound like a heathy relationship. Are you really going to want to stay with him once you get to your goal and feel great about yourself? I think he will just be holding you back at that point. Even…

I guess I belong here now too 28yom in neworleans area

LOL..May the best man win.

Because I feel better when I eat low carb... I dont eat processed foods that are high in calories and low in vitamins and minerals. It makes sense to me eat whole foods that come frome natural sources. Many fruits and veggies have health benenfits and protien is essential for building muscle. I see no problems with eating…

Nope, but if anyone wants to hang out I wouldnt be opposed to it.

1,2,and 5 are perfect. one being on the bigger side of perfect and 5 on the low end 2 is perfection she is toned and has enough fat not to be too cut. The others are too skinny IMO.

And eating protien is gonna keep you full longer cause it takes longer to digest... youll just have to get used to it... then it will be no big deal.

The BSN Syntha-6 is really good but it is not very paleo/primal friendly I think it has 15g of carbs per serving and 22g of protien.

typical average female that is not overweight is about 20- 24%.... So that would mean that you need around 112g of protien per day

I have about 6 different sources of animal protien in my freezer right now, just pick an animal you like and eat more of it and I agree with the one gram per lb of lean body mass. So calculate your body fat percentage and subtract it from your weight and that will give you about how many grams of protein you need. I try to…

But then we would have to fight over the cons and merits of dairy... just kidding kind of. It would be logical to merge both since they are so similar, but then there are the select few that want their own paleo or primal only group. For the rest of us we will just have to subcribe to both groups.

I started at 310, down to 268 currently.

I've been looking into this alot lately and My conclusions have come to that you need to be eating above your maintenance calories and your protien should be at least 1g per pound of lean body mass. As far as carbs go you might want to up them also if you are feeling weak and sluggish during your weight lifting sessions.…

LOL on and off.

Add 1 cup plus one cup water to chocolate protien powder with 1 cup frozen mixed berries. Blend in blender. Save the other cup for next time

Army Vet here thinkng about going back when I lose the weight.

I exercise when I have time, and it seems to be working well(full time work and full time school). Primal advises against long duration intense cardio. just walking/hiking, strength training, and a series of sprints once a week. I have about 100 to lose also. I started needing to lose 135ish.

Welcome to the cave... feel free to add me also if you like.

Conventional wisdom says that you cant gain muscle without a calorie increase and you lose muscle with a calorie deficit. So if this is true you will lose muscle unless you eat more no matter what diet you are on. The few cases where people have gained muscle and lost fat were the severely obese and out of shape, because…

Yeah, I have stopped posting in the main forums also, because unless you are doing the mainstream dieting that everyone else is doing then they will have something negative to say if not an all out attack on you. My major problem is trying to explain it to family memebers or friends. They see my progress and ask what I am…

Best 2 mile time is 13min flat Now I am at about a 10min mile. I am hoping to get back in the 6-7min range in the next year once the weight is back off.

+1 for this. No gas. No energy ups and downs. Just a steady feeling of well being. It works for me. I have the occasoinal no-no, but I dont make a habit of it and I feel 100 times better than I ever had on any other diet. What you decide to eat will shape your physical an mental well being. The general concensus is that…

I am pretty sure after the first hour those 100 calories will be burnt. then it is still a fast, but I am not so sure about drinking it during a fast, however your body will still be at a great deficit if you do. I havent read up on the IF too much. I end up doing them not by choice but because of my hectic schedule.

+1 for the e-cig. No weight gain.

Reduce cardio, add more strength training, and if that still isnt working start reducing carb intake(meat and veggies are your friend) . Under 150g of carbs is a good place to start. Protien is essential for muscle building so make sure you are getting enough. Also make sure you are getting enough calories if you cut back…

Thanks for sharing. You have done a great job! Deffinately look younger and healthier. Almost forgot to mention thinner, but I am almost sure that is implied at this point.
