Hard.
I've been Paleo for close to 60 days now. At work, I've had about three co workers interested in Paleo and I've helped them to start. Well, each one probably lasted around a week on average and now back on an unhealthy track. I've helped them to get back, I gave them advice and supported them. But no luck. Now they seem to…

For those on Paleo...
And have cheat days that include nothing Paleo, please know that you will feel super gross, bloated and overall sluggish! My first cheat day in my 50 days of Paleo and I feel absolutely disgusting. I am so ready to get back on track tomorrow. Just a word of caution. Eating clean is the way to go.

43rd day on Paleo, but gaining weight after losing?
Hello. I am on my 43rd day of Paleo. I absolutely love it and loved the first month with losing 24lbs, but the past week I noticed I am gaining weight slowly. It went from .2 to .4 then officially a 1.5 today. I haven't changed my eating habits except my caloric intake when I had lost that 24lbs. I track my macros and make…

40-Day Check In on MFP
Today I have reached my mini goal of logging into MFP for 40 days! I have also lost 24lbs and able to put on and successfully zip up my old pair of jeans! One small goal to some but it is a major step in the right direction for me!

Calling all Paleo'ers!!
We are on Month 2 of Paleo and we need some fresh recipes that are not only easy to do (1.5 hours or less) but are family friendly as we have two youngsters that are pretty picky. I've been to NomNomPaleo and other sites, but looking to see if anyone has tried their own concoction of some sort and it was delicious.

20lbs in 1 Month.
This may sound impossible, but apparently it isn't. I started the Paleo lifestyle the week of April 26th. Before that, I ate about 2,000 calories a day that included lots of soda, bread, carbs, fat (not the good kind), and just junk. My husband and I needed a change. I was the highest I ever been weighing in at 286. On top…

Attention Paleo'ers and Workaholics
To those who work full time, what do your daily meals look like? Do you eat 3x a day (bfast, lunch, din) or sporadically? Do you prep on Sundays? What about y'all who have kids, how do you balance everything? I'm on week three and trying to balance everything out.

My company had pizza for lunch yesterday
and I had brought my chicken and brussel sprouts. Let me say, that pizza crust smelled so good, but my chicken/brussel sprouts made me feel so much better than what I would have n 3 - 4 pieces of pizza. I was asked by some of my coworkers why no pizza, I simply replied and said "no thanks, I brought my own lunch"…

Paleo and Hashitmoto's!
Hello all. A year ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and last week I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. My PCP suggested I check out the Paleo diet and I did some extensive research over the weekend and am on Day #3 of the Paleo diet.

Seeing a nutritionist
I went to my endocrinology appointment this morning for my hypothyroidism and she referred me to a nutrition office that they refer to for patients in the same boat as I am, so I stopped by their office and checked them out. My insurance covers the visit, so money isn't an issue, but my question is has any of you worked…

Advocare Dinner Recipes?
My husband and I are on Day 6 of the 10 day cleanse. I had meal planned everything but looking to look outside of my meal plan and find a recipe that is delicious but nutritious. Something with ground turkey or chicken breasts since we've managed to do 2 nights of salmon/tilapia.

Oh where to start.
I've directed before. I've done cleanses before and never stuck to it. Now I need motivation to stick to, because in July my family will be going and renting a beach house in Florida for a week and my large goal is to lose 50lbs or even more (if it's possible) but my problem is where to start and how to stick to it. I plan…

What's your favorite pair of workout shoes?
Hubby is taking me this weekend to get a new pair of workout/training/exercising shoes. We're heading to the outlet mall to check out the Nike Outlet and I am pumped! I might go over my budget there, since they have more than just shoes ;) So what's your favorite pair of shoes? Is it even Nike? At the Nike Outlet, prices…

Hip Hop Abs? Worth it?
Hello all! I'm on Day 5 of Insanity and looking into doing Hip Hop Abs because I just love Shaun T and I have seen/read amazing success stories from doing it. Insanity is .. well, INSANE obviously! It gets me going, pumping, sweating, cursing, everything LOL. I played the first DVD of it (found it online) and it looks just…

Family meal help, any open diaries?
Looking to make family meals for my husband and daughters without having them eat what I eat, especially our picky ones. Any suggestions or open diaries? I don't want to spend hours in the kitchen cooking them meals and myself one, nor do I want to spend a lot of money on frozen entrees for myself, either. Thanks!

Special K Fitness Challenge?
Hi there! My husband loves Special K and their cereal, breakfast shakes and he even buys their bars. I never really looked into it when I eat the cereal from time to time, but this morning I glanced on the back of the box and it says you can lose 6lbs in 2 weeks by replacing 2 meals (breakfast & lunch) with 2 of their…

I am SICK of being obese!

How do you count burning calories..
for if you do cleaning or chasing around your toddler all day :tongue: I don't get to go to the gym everyday so the days I don't I do extra chores and try to go downstairs and up the stairs 2x more than usual. Instead of spending money on a step tracker, how would I know how I much I burn by doing laundry, chasing my…

Am I doing this right so far?
I've been doing some research along with other readings before I started this diet, and even chatted with my doctor. This is day 2 on MFP and day 2 on this diet, and I want to know so far today, does this seem alright? I like to do this breakfast/lunch combo quite often since I feel satisfied, full, and energized. Thanks!…
