Making the switch to Paleo - How did you do it?
Every day I say I'm going to (finally) make the switch to a Paleo, "clean", diet and get my act together and change my life and every day I don't do it. It just seems so difficult and overwhelming. 90% of that diet/lifestyle is meal planning and planning ahead, something of which I don't have enough time to do in my life.…

I'm Broken (warning: long)
From May of 2011 to June 2012 I successfully stuck to a diet and exercise and managed to lose 74lbs from my fat body. I went from an all-time high of 288lbs to an adult-life all-time low of 214lbs. I ended up with an entirely new wardrobe because every single item I owned was too large to put on. I had people, from people…

Gave up bread, craving peanut butter: what do I do?
I've quit eating bread because it just causes nothing but stomach problems, but I really miss peanut butter and toast, and peanut butter in general. What can I do, or eat, to suffice my cravings?

I've Completely Stalled
In the past year I have successfully lost 74 pounds from my ever growing frame. I got down to 214 from 288 and was extremely proud of myself. Over the summer (I'm a high school librarian so I get summers off) I worked out like crazy because I had the time, but I also slipped and started eating everything in sight again…

Help With Calorie/Insanity Related Numbers
I'm 6'4'', I currently weigh 224 (I started at 288, dropped to 214 and have since put back on 10lbs) and am planning on starting "Insanity" when I get home from work today as a way to rejuvenate myself and get myself down to my ultimate goal of 200. But, I've already looked it up under the Exercise tab and nothing for…

Stomach Problems
Figured I'd throw this out to everyone before I have to go see a doctor or something. Does anyone have recurring stomach issues after they eat a meal? If so, do you know what's causing it? Or, do you know how to stop it? I seem to have stomach problems after almost every single meal I eat. It can be from healthy stuff, bad…
