Sometimes I wind up eating out more than I'd like to, so the BAS is my go-to meal. I keep track of restaurants that offer some type of protein on a salad with pure olive oil-based dressing - there...

You're welcome! I'm not about to give up veggies myself (I actually do love them), but I've been trying to get over the "ick" factor when it comes to offal - these Mongolians are my new heroes! One...

I experienced it too. I assumed it was my metabolism getting revved up, but I had no factual basis for that belief.

Anyway, the hot flashes eventually went away, but I don't get cold as easily as...

It's true that walnuts have the highest omega 3 content of the nuts, but they also have way more omega 6, which essentially "cancels out" all of that omega 3 goodness. Plus, the form of omega 3 found...

If I was in your position, the first thing I'd do is try eliminating (or at least cutting down on) milk. It is highly insulinogenic, which makes it great for bulking up, but some people find dairy...

I'd recommend not worrying too much about changing anything right now. You've already made a huge change - going Paleo! Give your body some time to adjust to the change, and see how your results are....

A traditional Mongolian feast. Or, the limits of locavorism. - By Catherine Price - Slate Magazine

It could be another round of low carb flu, and it also could just mean you aren't taking in enough calories overall. Do you know if you cut your calories when you switched up your diet?

Your percentage fat in relation to carbs and protein is just fine. But, depending on your goals and activity level, you may need to adjust how much you are eating total - less if you are not active...

I'm another sasquatch.

I've gone through periods in my life where I haven't shaved, but now I feel like my professional image requires me to. I only shave my arm pits on days when I'm going to be...

I would agree that legumes need proper preparation; however, I still don't see them as being any worse than nuts, nightshades, and cocoa.

For example, almonds (a popular "Paleo" nut) have1138-1400...

You could just as easily say that they had heart disease from eating grains, which were the staple of the Egyptian diet. True, royalty likely consumed more meat, though they also did less physical...

I had cut out legumes for my first couple months on the PB. I eventually decided to experiment with reintroducing them in small quantities (maybe a cup a week or so), and haven't had any problems. I...

Dharma_Punk mentioned being a jogger on the previous page - I assumed his issue was with the idea of drinking milk and honey before running, not the run itself. I'd be puking on the sidewalk if I...

Keep in mind that Ashkenazim likely favor chicken and goose fat for reasons that have nothing to do with health - butter would have been forbidden in meat or poultry dishes and lard was outright...

Haha - not a mom, and definitely not ready for mom jeans!

Anyway, thanks for all the replies - I think I have some trying on to do...

I slept on a blanket on the floor for a while back when I was 21 or so. It was fine when I slept on my back, but not so hot if I slept on my side because I could feel my hip bone digging into the...

Can anyone recommend a brand of jeans that have a straight or skinny cut with a low to moderate rise, but can still accommodate some leg muscle?

I'm currently the victim of my own body recomp...

Sorry, but I don't think I've seen anything to that effect in HuntGatherLove. I'm not talking about 150+ grams of fiber here - 500 calories worth of leafy and starchy vegetables only adds up to about...

You have only proved CICO invalid if you continue to insist on defining the calories out portion of the equation extremely narrowly. Most people here are talking about calories out in terms of actual...

It totally depends on how you define a high fat diet. If you're eating 80% of your calories from fat, yeah it's going to be tricky to meet your nutritional requirements. 50%? No problem. Assuming a...

CLA is awesome, but I'm very hesitant to recommend taking it in pill form - commercially available supplements generally contain an isomer of CLA (t10c12) that isn't found in significant quantities...

I am going to waste so much time on this site! Superb!

@iniQuity - I totally agree that this is really an exciting time to be involved in the paleo-sphere (or whatever you want to call it). It's big enough to be getting some serious attention, but still...

Hopefully today's epigenetic orthodontics palate expanders are a bit kinder than the standard one I had! I have a distinct memory of running down the street when it came time to crank mine open a bit...
