amazing story, thank you for sharing. Great job!

Wow! Amazing job. I love how much your smiling in your new photos, shows how much happier you are now. Great work!!

I am in a similar position! I've been struggling the last year with being on and off the healthy lifestyle. I actually just ordered PiYo tonight and I'm so excited to start this journey back up! :) Sent you a request!

Following this thread for advice/friends. I feel 1000x better when following the paleo lifestyle, but am easily tempted and once I fall off the wagon, I fall off hard. I am looking to get back on track to start feeling better. I believe the standard American (candian? haha) diet affects my moods a lot and also bothers my…

Right now I am in love with the starbucks vanilla rooibos tea. I just bought two tins :wink:

What about an introduction/informative book on it such as It Starts With Food?

Not sure what your eating as your diary isn't open to public, but I would suggest eating more filling foods..meat/veggies/healthy fats with every meal and drink lots of water. If you're saving calories up for something special I'm gonna take a guess that it's not the most healthy which most likely = not satiating enough.…

Oh i completely agree that it does not *need* honey.. My hubby just likes it:wink: so he put it in for flavor. We won't be doing that this next shopping trip.

Thanks for the response! Yes, ive decided i'm going to a "pre-whole30" with the meat I have, and then actually start the 30 days after our big shop

Start now and get as far as you can. Then re-start when your back :wink:

I'm starting the Whole30 on Tuesday and have been debating if I should count or not. I like the idea of listening to your body and it makes total sense! I am breastfeeding so I need to eat an extra 500 calories a day, and I also run.. so part of me worries that I will under eat and maybe drop my milk supply. I think I will…

paleo pumpkin pancakes are great! We do about 2 cups of pumpkin, 6 eggs, tbsp honey, 1/2tsp baking soda, and either pumpkin spice or cinnamon/nutmeg. Just make sure they brown a bit before you flip them. You can add blueberries in them, or top with strawberries, i like adding a bit of honey and cinnamon on time. SO good!

You look great :)

I'm newly paleo and eat pretty clean. Feel free to add me :smile:

Looks like a lot of good recipes have been shared. I am going to try some, thanks!

I just made paleo mayo for the first time, soooooo good!

Whenever I cheat I always feel awful after. Headaches, tired, bloated, heavy, and mood change. As previous poster said, it never tastes as good as you think/remember. Since you include dairy in your diet I would suggest maybe trying a cauliflower/coconut/almond flour pizza crust instead and satisfy your craving but still…

I always have a snack around 9/10pm and have never had a problem with weight loss or sleep.:ohwell:

Glad I read this!

Just put my 2 year old and 8 week old in a jogging stroller and went for a run. Weight loss is definitely possible without a gym! I lost 55lbs without it after my son and im doing it again now after my daughter was just born :smile:

With my son I went to 300 and then near the end I did 150. Depends how many times your baby is feeding:smile:

I was in your same boat with my first baby. A good way to excersize with them is by going on runs with a jogging stroller on long walks/hikes with them in a carrier. I have got so much use from a good Ergo carrier and BOB jogging stroller! I would do my DVD's when my son fell asleep in the stroller just before we got home…

http://www.canadianpaleoathlete.com/\ lots of good info and he is a paleo endurance athlete.

Thanks for sharing!

Great work!!

Baby #2 coming soon. Currently 35 weeks. My DS is 21 months. Had a hospital birth but had an epidural. Having a hospital birth this time (regretting not getting a midwife this time though...) and going to try and avoid any drugs if possible. I breastfed DS until he was about 16ish months as my milk started to dry up and…

I lost 55lbs all while breastfeeding. I kept my numbers in the right brackets to make sure I didn't effect my supply. I am now 5 months pregnant with baby #2 and still breastfeeding baby #1 lol.

I had sever pain and my dr told me about runners knee and gave me some quad stretches to do, totally worked!

I should be due feb 21 but have an ultrasound this week to confirm how far along I am. So excited to see this baby!

Name: Amy Hubby/Partner: Phil How many kids do you have: I have a son named Kingston who is 17months old. Due Date: Roughly Feb 21. Have a dating ultrasound next week to confirm! Do you know the gender: No, we are going to have it be a surprise like we did with our first :) Have you picked out the baby's name: We have…
