Long time no update!
Today I start my full-fledge Paleo diet. If you guys don't know what that is, you can read about it here. My brother and sister-in-law are doing it, and it seems like a great idea. My only problem is avoiding sugar...sigh. I'm hoping by keeping a blog it can help me stay on the right track ( Read more... )

I lost about 20 pounds this spring doing a low carb type thing, with lots of exercise. But my biggest problem is also drinking so I gave that up for lent as it seemed like a good time to do it.
It's been hard staying off the booze though and though my weight is stable, I still want to lose like 10 pounds before the middle of august. It's just been too hot to exercise. But too hot to eat, too.
It's really weird that I feel more comfortable at this weight only because I was so much heavier. But it's still far too much.
I think there's some similarities between low carb and paleo.

I feel you on it being too hot. I sometimes still force myself to eat though because I turn into a raving bitch when I don't. It's a vicious cycle lol
And there definitely is. Paleo eliminates basically all carbs, and focuses more on meats and vegetables. Sugar and soda is so far the hardest but I just gotta keep that mindset of how much better I'll feel once the weight's gone.

sugars are by far the hardest... But I get along with coke zero for soda....if that helps. It's not too bad, but I mostly only drink it for caffeine...
coffee with agave and milk works for me as well. Low glycemic? I Think that's the south beach thing ...
I just find the whole "this is what we ate in the paleolithic era" a bit disingenuous...Because they never talk about bugs... it seems.
But whatever works. I'm right there with ya.
Keep us updated.
I love that pic of freeman and cumberbatch btw awww

No I agree with you there...that's why I pretty much relate it to the Atkins diet, or at least that's how I look at it. Makes me feel a little bit better about myself, I Don't know.
Aww thanks :) I can't take credit for it though, but I love it all the same <3
