+1 if you ever get into an argument with a vegetarian, just point out that tons of Indians are vegetarians, but India has an alarmingly high (and growing) rate of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.

Yup.

I hate being this statistic of fat at a young age gen Y. Although I wasn't obese in elementary school, I have been overweight since puberty (age 10) and was technically obese for a few years,...

It could be telogen effluvium due to weight loss. In any case I would recommend supplementing with biotin, silica, and MSM.

You might also want to get ferritin levels checked.

A little late, but I wanted to thank you all for your comments. I have been thinking about them, and realized that I need more 'plan less.' more 'just do.' I'm currently in India and while I can't...

I bought the book for my one-year primal-versary (I read almost every article, and a ton of threads in the forums, before my official start). Admittedly, I have not made it through much of the book...

Congratulations!! And I love the stories of primal pregnant women not gaining or even losing weight while pregnant!

Glad to see you back, Meg! :)

really? jolie currently looks like all she eats is air. it's part of that crazy hollywood race to starvation.

I like the idea of color analysis a lot, but I wish it had stuff for non-white women :(

Very true. It's very difficult to find jeans that fit a short but wide-hipped woman (me).

It was the black guy. They cut her hair to shoulder-length and I thought it made her look a lot older than she actually was.



I saw a girl wearing 'dress shorts' and thought 'she has a...

You only need to look at modern-day hunter-gatherers or even just people living in developing countries where it's normal to be barefoot all the time to see that they have much, much stronger feet.

On a related note, I realized today that dresses are so much more flattering to many women's figures (including myself) than pants and shirts are. Not babydoll dresses or sack dresses, either, but...

The pin-up girl dress arrived in the mail. It doesn't even zip up completely right now but it is so unassumingly hot and makes my ass and hips look soooooo good that I am super-motivated again...

+1!! I was in a 'who can lose the greatest percentage of their bodyweight in three months' contest with some friends once (and we were all around the same weight), and they were so confused that I...

I already take magnesium. I think too much caffeine has been seeping in lately. Thanks for the advice :)

I thought about it and I think part of it is that I am really stressed and feeling like I...

So I started taking 5-htp after reading this thread and doing some more research, and for about a week it really did help control my binging behavior and obsession with food.

But then I started...

Slept for 7 hours last night, but my sleeping/waking has skewed even later, urrrgh.

Exercise: No dance. Did sprint: 6 sprints of 15 seconds each with about a 2-minute break between each one. I...

chocolate cheerios are now made with WHOLE GRAINS, y'all!

as are lucky charms.

sprinted in the rain and felt like a BAMF.

my butt and legs also look unusually nice. more defined, less cellulite, maybe?

been primal for over a year now. still trying to lose weight, so:

-less fruit and no cheese/yogurt/milk (my dinner sometimes was frozen mixed berries with mascarpone. it was delicious.)...

There is some information at the LongHairCommunity forums about MSM helping hair grow (and also being good for nails and skin), probably by reducing the time period in which each individual strand of...

That's awesome! My mother is a vegetarian and we come from a largely vegetarian background/culture, so, yeah, there is a little more resistance there, lol.


Slept for 7 hours last night. As...

Ferritin was in the 30's about 5 months ago. Had a blood test last week but don't have a copy of the results in front of me yet. I hope they are at least in the 50's by now.

I'm also supping...

Thanks, paleo bird. :)
