Have you tried "breading" your meats with nuts?
I just tried today and it was so good. I finely chopped almonds in the food processor, added some salt, garlic and seasoning and breaded my chicken in it (dipped it in eggs). I was a bit skeptical, but it was really good and easy. My kids liked it, too.

Last night I left the house at 8:30 a.m., got home at 7:00, headed to the hospital immediately and didn't get home until after 9:00. Unfortunately, most of my days are…

New to this - concerned about % of diet from fat
I just started Paleo a couple days ago (I am eating 1 greek yogurt (plain) a day). My fat just seems so high and I am worried (I am a throwback to the '90s and it really freaks me out to see how much fat I am eating). My day today was 22% carbs, 53% fat, and 25% protein. I thought for sure my day would be higher in…

Weight workout if you have bad joints/back/etc.
I have hired 2 trainers and both of their workouts are bad for me. I have a slipped vertebrae so anything with impact is out (no plyos or anything jumpy) and I also have arthritis in my knees so even things like squats and lunges are painful. I feel like the less muscle I build, the worse I will be in the long run. OTOH,…

Questions about exercising and knee pain
I have bad knees. I was diagnosed by one doctor with chondromylacia and another with some tracking disorder. I need to workout with weights and strength train.

Need any & all tips at making morning workouts doable
I hate working out in the morning and can't manage to get up most times or feel so horrible that I can barely eek out a worthwhile workout. I was able to workout at night for the past year, but now with 2 kids in school, I am just finishing their stuff by 9:00 (let alone my own stuff). This only leaves mornings. Any tips…

Strength training with back problems
Does anyone have degenerative disk/spine issues and manage to strength train? I used to do videos (FIRM, etc.) and that was okay until my back got worse. I have degenerative disk disease, spondlylisthesis and a few other things going on. I can ride a recumbent bike, but doing free weights (squats/lunges/etc.) bother me. I…
