I think relaxation could definitely be the reason. I'm usually home with kids, but if I have several days where I'm running around, I don't "go". Then I have a day home and I go and go and go...

I get nightmares if drink caffeine after about 6:00pm. I have bizarre dreams and scream for help. Without caffeine, I'm fine.

Had lunch with friends yesterday. One was commenting that she was heavier than she's ever been. She wanted to know how I had lost weight.

"I'm following a Paleo diet."
"What's that?"
"Whole...

Definitely check out what they're pickled in.

Could you be eating something else that's causing you to be more sensitive? I was eating cashews (not primal, but they got me through). I found that...

I took magnesium for two days and ended up throwing the whole bottle away because of side effects. It's a diuretic. I was running to the bathroom every 30 minutes. I woke up in the middle of the...

That's just gross and sad. What's up with the language? It scares me to think my kids might be going to school with kids like that.

Down 40 as of last Friday! Woo hoo! But I'm starting to realize the numbers might not mean much in the end. They're a good measure to outsiders, like when someone asks specifically how much I've...

I was just reading a blog that said many people come out of eating a paleo diet with thyroid damage. Has anyone else heard this? What's the science behind it? I'm hypothyroid due to Hashimoto's...

I'll be 50 in 6 1/2 months. Can I play?

Interesting reading about Hashimoto's. I was diagnosed about 14 years ago. I don't know what I'd eat if I had to follow that restrictive diet!!! Yikes! ...

I don't think you have to give up your friends or try to find friends who exercise and socialize while exercising. That doesn't sound very fun at all. I eat out fairly often with my husband or...

Went to my sister's house for a Passover meal. I did great until dessert. She had made a flourless chocolate cake and key lime pie. I figured it was only half bad, no flour, only sugar, so I ate a...

Still stuck at 39 pounds. Frustrated but not surprised. I've been eating way too much, all of it Primal, just way too much of it. It shouldn't surprise me that this is so much of a mental game for...

I've been eating primally for about 7 months. I've lost almost 40 pounds--which is fabulous--but every week when I read the success stories and hear how everyone has this tremendous energy I get...

I also have Hashimoto's. Mine is managed well with levoxyl. (My doctor will adjust my dose based on how I feel and not just when my numbers are within normal limits.) I haven't found that eating...

Down about 39 pounds now! I had gotten away from recording what I was eating. Tried that again for a couple of days and was surprised by what I was actually eating. I think that's all I needed to...

I've been eating primally for about 6 months. I gave up cashews about 6 weeks ago because I was having trouble controlling myself. This week I bought cashews again. I ate some on Friday night and...

Still stalled out at 30 pounds lost since just after Christmas. Or, actually, I gained a pound or two back, but those don't really count, right?

I started reading the Primal Blueprint Fitness...

I've been crazy hungry lately--not like really hungry, but crazy hungry, like a crazy person. I keep going to the cupboard trying to find something, then turning to the refrigerator, then back to...

Hello! My name is Ann. I'm 49 years old and the mother of 6. I was skinny as a kid and through college, but started gaining weight after I got married. (My husband and I said it was because we...
