http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/551531-what-will-make-you-fatter this is the guy who called me liar because I have told him I have overeaten fat/protein and not gained.

did an "informal" glucose tolerance test. Numbers are worryi
I did it this past Saturday. I bought 5 bottles of Dex4 glucose drink (yuck!). 75g worth of fast acting carbohydrate. I hadn't eaten in over 11 hours but I did have some black coffee a few hours before doing the test. I'm 5'2" and 113lbs with about 19% body fat on me. My dad is diabetic and my older brother is diabetic. My…

Question on Azomite clay
I've done some reading on it. I was going to get a couple of huge bags for the veggie garden this year. I know a lot of people consume this clay due to the 67 trace minerals in it. Does anyone here take this? I've read a number of comments on MDA from people that actually take a tsp or two of this a day. I would never of…

An excerpt on Leptin from 'Primal Body, Primal Mind'
The more I read about leptin the more I realize just how important this hormone is. Leptin essentially controls mammalian metabolism. Most people think that is the job of the thyroid, but leptin actually controls the thyroid, which regulates the rate of metabolism. Leptin oversees all energy stores. Leptin decides whether…

This morning my fasting blood sugars registered 101 - which is higher than…

Forums and Primal/Paleo
Okay. I'm done with the forums for now. I've been out there again. But I can't seem to help myself. Most of the time I don't even go back after I post just because I don't want to see it. It's interesting though that the number of members in this groups grows daily!! Seems to me like it's getting a little more popular. I…

The context of calories
Food for thought. Who knows, maybe I just feel like being punished today. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/the-context-of-calories/ “What’s that in the road ahead?” vs. “What’s that in the road!? A head!?” Context is important. Many people think weight loss is simply about cutting calories. But context counts here, too.…

Still Counting Calories? Your Weight-Loss Plan May Be Outdat
