Opinions on Canola Oil Salad Dressing
Yes, I avoid this usually, but there is a particular brand of Italian dressing I LOVE! I have tried and tried to duplicate it and can't! The only reason I avoid it is canola oil, so my question is...how bad do people think it is to just eat that one item of canola oil?

Suggestions Needed!
I had a really rough few months, well, maybe more like most of the year, but the worst was the summer. I was totally off the chain and craving junk all the time and giving in! I did a cleanse diet, that wasn't all Paleo, but it helped me! I broke the cycle and stopped craving the junk all the time. But now, I am having…

Change the Mindset!! Positivity Toward Paleo!!
What have you eaten (Paleo) recently that was really good to you, that makes you want to continue this way of life?? Share the positivity please!! I will start...I had a piece of salmon with garlic and herb olive oil, roasted brussels sprouts and a nice fruit salad. I felt great after, and that is what this is about for me.

Positive Inspirations for Paleo! Things to remember when struggling! Great meals, etc.
I started this with the wrong title for what I was really thinking. I want there to be a place to come to find a ton of positives to help us when we get off track or want to! My positive today is organic uncured deli ham rolled up with duck egg salad (with homemade mayo) and lettuce.

October Chat Thread
Hi all! I have been absent but I DO like this idea and I have pared down my commitments and re-focused on what is important to my HEALTH, not my VANITY. I tried Weight Watchers (because I had no real idea of what it was honestly, only that it worked for friends in the past). Epic FAIL!! I tend to the hypoglycemic side…

An Evening Worker Thread??
I work evening shift (so 12p-8p, 1p-9p, 2p-10p, etc.) and I don't really fit the Nightshift Thread now, but yet I am not a normal person! I stay up late because I need wind-down time after work. Anyone else in the same boat??

Budget Help!
So I am used to prioritizing healthy foods and working around a high grocery budget. But now I am realizing that it may not work for me any more with high medical bills, taxes, etc. What can people share to keep costs down for 2 adults? I know what I do but need new ideas!

I can't seem to find a good way to search for groups, I had mine a while before they changed the community.

Paleo Track?
Has anyone seen or tried this? paleotrack.com/ I did enter one day, just to see. I like the detail it gives and that it tells how you are strict Paleo or not, dairy free etc. BUT, the database is not as extensive as MFP, I have not found one that is honestly. Any thoughts?

Anyone Join Primal Blueprint 21 Day Challenge?
I joined today and got the app. I figure too much support and motivation is better than too little!

Low Carbers Here?
I have allowed myself some leeway, to break my bigger vices of Dairy and Junk food. But I am kind of having a hard time with hunger, and I think it may be because I have allowed myself too much leeway with carbs. What do you find you get hungry on carb grams wise? What works for you?

Chicken Wrapped in Bacon!
I seasoned some chicken breasts with Simply Organic Chicken Seasoning (any you like would work), then wrapped it in 2 pieces of uncured bacon (any 1 serving size would work depending on what you like or have). Baked at 350 on a Pampered Chef Stoneware pan. Could probably be whatever baking sheet you have, I just prefer…

ChargeHR
If anyone here has this yet...I want it but I have some reservations. Do you have to wear it tight all day? What happens if you don't? I am not big on tight things on me anytime! I have not worn a watch or bracelet in years, but I lose the FB One all the time so I want a bracelet type. Thoughts?

EASY, Healthy Turkey Recipe!
I took turkey cutlets, olive oil, small amount of sage, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper and sauteed them in a pan on high to start, then flipped and lowered it to medium. Then I added some fresh lemon juice to the pan to deglaze. Yum! I came up with this in order to avoid nasty ham (that makes my stomach sick) cooked in…

Interesting Soups?
I am looking for different soups to make. I usually make 1 a week in the fall and winter and freeze them for easy go-to meals. I am looking for different ideas, I can make a regular chicken soup in my sleep, literally! I am gluten free and Paleo so it has to be adaptable (like I can just leave out pasta).

Having A Food Identity Crisis!
So I really believe that Paleo is the best way for me. In my heart, I believe that. With Celiac and grain issues, it is right. Right? I have been cheating this week with GF bread and such and I have found that I actually am eating less, because I am more satisfied once I ate that GF sandwich for lunch, or that mashed…

Wavering and Needing a PEP Talk!
I need to hear some great things from people as I head into PMS time, which is where I cave and eat whatever every time! I am feeling like WTH, what does another day of chips and dips make when I don't lose doing right either??!! WHo has debilitating PMS and how do you deal??

Fitbit and C25K?
SO I have re-started C25K, and it syncs with MFP. But so does Fitbit. My issue is whether Fitbit really registers more calories for running minutes, when I am sweating my *kitten* off and clearly working, or whether I should go with the reading C25K gives? I know doubling up and including both will be over-estimating. What…

Anyone Else Paleo or Primal?
I am pretty new here and was wondering if anyone else here is Pale or Primal? I actually was low carb first (Atkins), went off, had horrible results health wise including Celiac disease, and then have been up and down since in my carb levels. I do best low carb Paleo, Primal second best so right now I am trying to do low…

40 and No Kids...A Vent
SO I am 40, I have no kids, mostly by choice. I wanted to have them younger and I wanted to do it right and stay home when they were young. Not possible. Now, both my husband and I are good with it, and a lot of times kids are just annoying to us! We have a bad bunch of neighbors, and the kids are loud, rude, obnoxious and…
