4evermetal Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Hello, I am new joining the site, but have been reading for awhile. I found it while researching the paleo diet. My sister began eating the paleo way and lost quite a bit of weight. Now when I visit her out of state, we only eat paleo. She even did paleo in Italy (can you imagine going to Italy and not eating pasta?). Anyway, I am hoping to find an accountability partner in my area. I do belong to a gym, but like last night, made another excuse not to go. Nice to meet ya! Quote Link to comment

4evermetal Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Thank you for the nice welcome! I am in Oklahoma so I believe that is the south region here. Yes, it seems paleo is the way to go. Good to know you have found success. I'll have to do better. Quote Link to comment
Thetemplarreservist Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Have you checked the meet up room in South to see if anyone is also looking in the Oklahoma area?

4evermetal Posted December 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Ok, so I met up with an accountability partner who gave me some great advice on how to break my big goals into smaller, more attainable ones. Tonight, when I go to the gym, I am going to pick up more weight than I have in the past. My gym has a room for the power lifters so I may go in and look around in there. I increased my water intake today and even though my nutrition choices haven't been the best, I look forward to being able to do better planning in that area. Baby steps Quote Link to comment

4evermetal Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Thank you. Last night in class, we did two sets of 10 exercises. I used much heavier hand weights and a heavier weighted bar. I wasn't able to get through all of the overhead presses with the heavier weights but that will be a goal that I can work on. There were too many people in the heavy lifting room so I'll check it out next time. A lot of inspiring and motivating stories on this site. I am so grateful I found it. Quote Link to comment
4evermetal Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Well, I have been challenged to do the 21 day sugar detox which I decided to begin on the 1st. The second day I did not feel well, but today is day 4 and I am doing fine. I have a couple of hard workouts coming up this week so I hope I'll continue to feel strong. Quote Link to comment
4evermetal Posted March 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Wow. There is sugar in about everything I was eating. I've lost 8 pounds in 13 days by eliminating sugar. My body feels better (not as sore) and there are bursts of energy every once in awhile. Looking forward to the 22nd 1 Quote Link to comment
The Beard Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Amazing what getting rid of sugar can do isn't it?

alvin545 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Once you've been off sugar for a while, you will notice that foods you once enjoyed are now too sweet and you won't crave them anymore. Gets so much easier! Quote Link to comment
4evermetal Posted March 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 I hope so! I am trying to find some good low sugar recipes that I can continue once the 21 days are over. This is a positive experience. Hopefully some of my co workers will try it since they complain of being tired and sore all the time. Quote Link to comment
