Gidget13 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Stepped on a scale this morning. This is unusual because I normally eye it, sitting there on the cold bathroom floor, as if it might attack me. So today as I was getting in the shower, I stepped right on that metalic monster and .... I saw that I've dropped weight! Sure, I still have about 25lbs to go, but damn! I knew changes were happening because I am wearing clothing that I'd put away for a year or more because it no longer fit. Thank you Paleo, I am sorry for all the crap I said about you a couple of years ago. Now once I start making regular exercise (have been sporadically working the beginner bodyweight program) a part of my life watch out world! :-) So happy to have found this site, so happy to have listened to what Steve was saying, so happy to have everyone here to show me the way.

Gidget13 Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I am amazed at the things I can do that I was so certain I couldn't. Like not eating cheese, or giving up processed foods (used to love a Smart Ones microwave meal for lunch during the week), or giving up artificial sweetners, or even added sugar. I've been doing the Paleo thing for about a month and a half now. It really isn't that hard, I don't feel deprived, and I love results. I gave my daughter infinite crap about her ex boyfriend's Paleo lifestyle a couple of years ago. Now I ask her why she didn't join him in it. Quote Link to comment
Duality Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 It's great, I'm basically paleo except with added dairy and a few other minor things. And good for you!

Gidget13 Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 The results I've seen on people who do Paleo have been amazing. Not just on this site, but in actual people I know. Not going to lie, there are times where I think "My god, I would love to have ___!" but then I think about it, and think how I'd really rather not cheat (yet). Maybe when I drop another 10 pounds.

Duality Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I never went in 100% to be honest, it's all depending on everyone, but it does work wonders if one dedicated himself to it.
