Considering it.....just curious. I really want to be as healthy as I can be, although I know that everyone has a different opinion on what is 'healthy' though.

Anyone get nausea from too much (healthy) fat?
So here's my dilemma. I am trying to become fat adapted. I have been increasing my fat intake since going low carb paleo, and somedays it's totally fine. But days (like today) where I have some bulletproof coffee and a large breakfast (also doing intermittent fasting)- a few hours later I get intense nausea and tummy…

What a year of Paleo can do... bikini before & afters.
So this is taking a lotta balls for me to post but I found these old pics on my phone from August 2012 (2 months into Paleo), and I took new ones the other day. I was shocked, it's truly amazing what a difference this lifestyle has made in my body composition. I was probably about 164 here, and now I'm 150. The last time I…

Body fat %- MFP vs. Body fat scale?
Hey all, so I recently got a Taylor body fat scale and it is telling me that my body fat percentage is 28.9. And MFP says I am 30.9. I know it's not much of a difference, except for one is in the 'obese' category and one is in the 'overweight' category. But which do you think is more accurate?

Increased my cals & now I am even HUNGRIER!! Wtf??
So I increased my cals from 1200 (2lbs a week) to 1360 (1.5lbs a week) because for the past couple weeks I was eating my exercise calories and still getting hungry after that, so I figured my body needed more fuel (I have lost 21 pounds; I work out 6 days a week for around an hour a day). So I upped them mid-last week and…

What do you think my activity level is?
Just want to be sure that I'm eating enough. I weigh 183, am 5' 4", and my goal weight is 134. I chose to lose 2 lbs a week and chose lightly active. My daily calories are 1200, and my BMR is 1565. My question is, should I choose 'active' instead? My activity level has increased since I started in September. I am a massage…

Big changes starting Sunday....eek!!
So I've made the decision that atleast for now, while on the road to my weight loss I am going to cut out red meat, dairy, and coffee. I have cut out red meat before (years ago) and it was fine...although I love me some steak and burgers haha. The dairy is more intimidating, as I LOVE milk and especially cheese. Yikes!…
