Could be you need to drink more during your exercises, it could be a sign of dehydration, or this: Ensuring adequate dietary intake of the electrolyte minerals(3) – sodium and potassium because they’re involved in conducting electrical signals to/from muscles, and calcium and magnesium, which are essential for the…

I just saw the documentary yesterday. It is known for quite long already how the food industry and governments have been fooling us (see also Fat head). One of the reasons why I went for Paleo years ago. Good docu, open and honest! I wonder tho if that will make a change, people are so blind, too many still believe in the…

Munchies

I was never into fashion and no clothes or shoe hoarder either, so when I buy clothes it means I really like them and because of that the shelf life is as long as they fall completely apart...

The same mistake I have made, hormones completely messed up and because of that I started to gain instead! And yet still many believe that is how a diet should be.

He has a good point! Too many people still believe low fat is the way to go, fat is bad, fat makes you fat and ill, wrong! I see in your diary it's the lowest of the macros. The body needs fat to burn fat even and low fat can lead to serious depressions. Next to some supplements like magnesium and vitamin D3 try extra…

I love the art of sarcasm...

This and magnesium! Depressions are not always caused by something missing in life, being bored, etc. It could well be you are lacking something in your diet! My husband was quite depressed as well. I gave him B-complex and magnesium. He is by far not as down anymore. And healthy fats, like cod-liver oil. It contains next…

#3, cute smile :)

Probably so, next to the computer I am pretty much a technophobe, No idea what WIFI, IPOD, IPAD is and the only time I got blue tooth is when I ate blueberries. I prefer to do most by hand and learned to live life in a simple way. Will not be easy of course, but manageable...

This says it all I think: I am not allowed to have it tho, but it aint easy and so now and then I feel I just need it!

Chicken fish eggs kale lemon seaweed onion garlic wasabi macadamia nuts etc...

Depends on it, when you buy it premade from a store it can contain additives which are not so healthy, like sugar. I have made the myself in the past, quite easy to do.

Ooohhhh I knew it must be good for something :smile: Almost always! I really can't stand wearing anything in bed, when turning around the shirt crawls up, too warm, etc... Only during that time of the month I wear my knickers, else nothing.

As far as I know there is no such thing as mild celiac, either you got it or you don't. Like a doctor said it so nicely: You are not a bit pregnant either! Maybe you don't have many complaints yet, but that can come! I didn't had so much issues either with your age, but suddenly one complaint after another came in a very…

Oops, my post appeared 3 times??? Wrong button I fear? Sorry for that! :smile:

I wonder if the doctor will have the last laugh when you get into serious trouble! Being stubborn is one thing, but this is far beyond stubbornness. I have had celiac for years already, without knowing it. I don't even want to tell you the health troubles I am in now! But believe me, it aint pretty! But just go ahead and…

Awesome news! Yes, I have heard it a lot from people who do not have celiac, they feel better without gluten and/or lose weight much better! One can wonder how good grains still are these days? It is not the same stuff anymore people ate 100 years ago, think GMO etc...

This! I got celiac, my husband is just sensitive to it and even he feels ten times better without gluten. But what's up with people making a fuss out of the subject? If someone doesn't want gluten, let them. If you want to eat it, fine. Besides it doesn't have to be that much more expensive! Just don't replace it with crap…

The B.R.A.T. diet and make sure you get your electrolytes + fluids! I just had it for about a month and ended up in the hospital, because my potassium - sodium levels were too low and I was dehydrated.

Totally this! Many people think you have to exercise your butt off. Not a good idea at all. Active yes, but no high intensity for hours! Especially when you got autoimmune issues rest is just as important, if not even more! I just had a crohn's flare, I can't exercise at all during these episodes and need tons of rest. But…

If you have done it for a while you get used to it. I can't imagine anymore how it would be to have gluten on my plate or sugar. I absolutely don't miss breads, cakes, cookies or something, but there are enough pages online coming with the most fantastic alternatives you could eat! This one has awesome cakes etc for…

I am in the middle of a flare at the moment. I barely can't eat anything. I have been thinking of trying the SCD diet. I have heard positive results from this, also for people with crohn's.

Awww, I'm so sorry for your mom, that must have been awful! What I just notice is people only cheer when you burned a ****load of calories, exercising your butt off and/or lose a lot of weight. But for me that is not so simple. When I have a flare I lose weight, yes, but then I get to hear I eat too little. No surprise…

This! Besides not wanting to eat meat because it is so sad for the animals is kind of bogus. For vegans animals die too! Think of all the environments which has been destroyed and animals driven to the brink of extinction for oils, nuts, fruits and other greens. Something many vegans and vegetarians don't think of and…

I have done the egg diet. I smelled like egg, felt like an egg and if I would continue probably look like one as well. End result was only temporary.

I had the same. I kept on gaining and no idea how to stop it, 40 pounds in 2 years, just horrid and the fear of when this goes on I end up being morbidly obese with a whole set of new problems I bought Chris Kresser's book 'Your personal Paleo code', I added Thorne Thyrocsin to my supplements (doctor knows this) and…

It's the personality which counts. I guess we're old enough to have figured that out already. Looks to me you're a fun guy :smile:
