Polargirl Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 I challenged myself to go strict Paleo for 30 days. Within a week I knew this was a lifestyle change fir me and not a temporary 'diet'. Checked my weight this morning and I lost 15 lbs in those 30 days! I'm beyond motivated and excited. Workouts were moderate. 3 day cycle. 1 day beginner body weight workout. 2nd interval cardio for 30 mins. 3rd day was unstructured. I also walk 1.5 hours every day. Unexpectedly good results. Wanted to share be a use I'm excited and want to give encouragement to others thinking about trying it. Cannot thank this forum enough. Best resource ever. Link to comment
BlackMetallic Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Congrats! I wish I could go 100% Paleo for that long. And I second the forum/resource, amazing place. Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure than to rank with thosepoor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

etergen Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Congratulations! I am where you were about 26 days ago, I hope that by the end of my 30 days I'll have some similar results!

stevembk Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Awesome! Im about a month into mostly-paleo so I won't have the same results as you, but that's a great accomplishment! Other than the weight loss, how do you feel compared to a month ago?

Polargirl Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 The difference in how I feel is why this is a permanent change. Sleeping so much better, wake up ready to tackle the day, energetic and productive. Even my moods are really upbeat and positive. I hate lounging around doing nothing nothing. I want to move. Huge changes from where I was. Link to comment
Everstorm Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 That's just amazing! I'm pseudo-Paleo now. (I'm dropping one grain at a time to ease into it). I've seen decent results, but not like yours. Makes me want to go set my oatmeal on fire. Life before Death Strength before Weakness Journey before Destination Link to comment
