My current thoughts on my eating plan: Lean protein... some saturated fat in beef and bacon and moderate butter, but not looking to add saturated fat. I'm just not comfortable eating the amounts of saturated fat that some do on The Primal Blueprint. I'm not trying to go super low fat because...

Thank you both for the input on the DVDs and your thoughts on the evolving eating plan and the high step. I think I will order those... with Power Hour, Maximum Intensity Strength and Body Max all on one DVD, it's a good deal... and I'll throw in High Step Circuit just because I can... lol I...

Any thoughts on these DVDs that are on my Wish List :rolleyes: 1) Power Hour, Max Intensity Strength, Body Max 2) High Step Circuit and.. if any of you have used a high step... how stable is it? I'm worried that if one did not center one's foot on the high step, that the step and I could go...

Good morning my friends !!! FnV - Good point about Cathe not responding to my Paleo questions. I hadn't thought about the points you brought up. She does have to be careful what she says.... I have seen how her word is taken as law. I was thinking more along the lines of a "this is...

Deanna - I KNEW it was the heifers.... lol. Seriously though.... I know what you'd be telling me... drink lots and lots and lots of water !!!!! I know you probably are already, but just thought I'd reinforce it for ya. :D FnV - thanks for the link to Mark's post. He makes some...

Cathe - I've been reading The Paleo Solution, The Primal Blueprint and Wheat Belly.... all of which are variations on the general paleo style of eating plan. You had said in a previous thread that you were going to give Paleo a try, but that you had tweaked it a bit. I'd love to know what...

Good morning my friends !!! FnV - thanks for the Swanson link... I'll try to run over to Whole Foods this afternoon and see if they have the Jarrows and see what their price is. I'm sure the price at the Swanson's website is cheaper.. but ya never know .. lol Great job on the carbs at...

ooops.. almost forgot... FnV - what brand of coconut oil do you use? I'd like to try some, but I don't like the taste of coconut so I was hoping for a mild one. My supermarket only carries a brand called Spectrum.. but there is a Whole Foods nearby so I'm sure they have other choices...

ADT is gone... yea !! They did a great job and were very nice, but I'm glad they are finished.. FnV - My visit with the doc for my annual physical went very well. He proclaimed me to be in superb health... except for those pesky extra pounds I'm carrying around. Cholesterol levels are...

Quick drive-by...... ADT is here installing my security system.... I'll be glad when they are finished... but will probably take most of the day.... I did the last STS Total Body premix yesterday.. (I think it's called Single Sets) it was terrific !!! It's one set of each exercise...

Stacy - sending you lots of hugs !!! I know you are not going to give up. You are too strong and too determined to give up. Sure... you're feeling discouraged right now.. but this time of year is so difficult and I think you've done well with all the family visits and being surrounded by...

Stacy - great job on the yoga workout !! Deanna - how are you feeling? FnV - Have fun at dance class !!! I agree.. the insulin info is what is convincing me..... I think that my carb/sugar cravings are because I had carbs/sugar at Chrismas dinner and that triggered the cravings. For the...

I want ice cream :p I want potato chips :p:p Am going to get a large bowl of fresh blueberries instead Today is the first day that carb/sugar cravings have hit me really hard since we started this Paleo/Primal path 11 days ago... I have been fighting this carb/sugar craving urge...
