Beware "Paleofication"
Paleofication is a mistake so many of us make and we justify it to varying degrees. I went down that road a little in my first year even with keeping carbs low, and yes I lost a lot of weight quickly, but it was fat AND muscle because I was under-eating... then the next year it all came crashing down to reality. I didn't…

Artificial Sweeteners are not FOOD
I've noticed some Primal/Paleo people who are consuming artificial sweeteners (and I'm not talking about Stevia products, though I don't think of it as food either). Maybe some you are new, maybe not. I totally get that some of us are doing the 80/20 thing or whatever, but there is never a reason to eat artificial…

Parting Advice
Hello. I'm about to leave this group and I'd like to share why. ALL of my health problems have been resolved by changing the kind of food that I eat. I no longer binge, crave, over-eat, have depression, pre diabetes, or any illness of any kind (there was a long list of physical illnesses as well). I am now convinced that…

Struggling with the Differences
Firstly, I am blessed. I have a long list of really great friends. Some eat similar to how I do, others do not. I totally get that what we eat is our own choice. I often refrain from posting information out of consideration for others who don't agree with me. I think how they eat is very unhealthy, and they likely think…

Thank you fellow Paleo/Primal MFPers!
I want to thank all the people who have posted about Bulletproof coffee. It took me two weeks to try it! I made my own light/lazy version: 10oz coffee (I drink only the best already), 1/2 tsp coconut oil, 1/2 tsp butter, and sprinkle of cinnamon. I just stirred it in, no blending. I didn't think I'd like it because i…

Weirdest Thing...
I just got a sliver on my tongue from a dried spice (either thyme, basil or oregano...). I'm almost 40 and have never experienced this. Has anyone had this happen before? It's very uncomfortable, feels like glass when I swallow or move my tongue. lol I've tried to brush my tongue, but I guess it won't leave until it's…

Impressed with this site
I signed up awhile back but then forgot and never got used to this site.... finally checked it out fully today and am very impressed. What was I thinking paying $22 per month for a "service" that's not even as good as myfitnesspal? Go figure. Everything is adaptable to a primal diet! I've already figured out how to adjust…

Primal again Day 5
Wow, I'm feeling awesome. I've felt like garbage for a few months (since I went back to eating stupid "food") and after just a few days I feel like superwoman. Oh, the energy! No cravings! I love this site, especially the tracker! Happy to see that there are many like-minded people, though I might have to stick to just…
