Doing better, settling in more, still feel fat and gross but I've refrained from relapsing and I'm trying to get out more.

I might be slightly lacto, I generally avoid dairy but sometimes I have some with no consequences.
I've been so DEPRESSED AND LETHARGIC lately. I am literally on the verge of falling asleep all day....

I've actually heard that there are enzymes on the hand that help with digestion and make food taste better. I can assert the latter but I haven't googled this. :p

My Mexican neighbor just brought over her homemade tamales, made with masa she ground herself and shredded chicken from her son's farm, corn husk casings soaking with the lard bubbling from the masa,...

I weighed this morning, feeling better after upping my water and I'm back down to 170...it's something at least. Did really well the whole day until our Mexican neighbor brought over homemade...

Gosh, I just got my period and I feel NASTY too. I have not been able to totally stick to Paleo since I got home (stateside) so every day it's like just a bite of this cake, a spoonful of this...

It's so interesting to read about your adventures! It's actually MUCH harder for me to eat Paleo and make any progress stateside...overseas I was eating organic local meat and eggs all day, felt...

I haven't gotten my herbs yet (no time to drive to Chinatown) but I am currently on a regime of supplements to aid with depression, bulimia, PCOS, and general digestive health as a result of my...

You can find the link to my journal in my sig, I am trying to keep it updated as I battle bulimia with primal eating and supplements.

I don't know about being pregnant but I have always been a light sleeper. It's harder for me to fall asleep but my hours are about the same :)

I second water retention! "Cheating" totally inflates me. Plus the actual added mass of the food in your bowels.

I tend to get bloated on peanut butter, and don't enjoy almond butter at all, but I LOVE sunflower butter. Trader Joe's makes one with just sunflower seeds, salt, and evaporated cane juice. It's the...

I'm trying to take it easy, and focus on not relapsing again, as well as getting back on track. I am eating mostly paleo - chicken fried in CO for breakfast with avocado, usually a healthy lunch, but...

I'm really not doing as well as I could. Becasue I'm traveling and visiting family I'm really stretching my 80/20. I eat mainly Paleo but instead of cheating weekly it's like daily: a bite of chile...

I'm taking all my supplements but still waiting for some improvement. My anxiety is sky high but I'm PMSing. Also I have a little planned off-day tomorrow, I'm going to be doing a food tour with my...

I'm not doing so good on sticking 100% to the diet - obviously now that I'm in California I want to try everything! And I'm staying with my grandma and her nitrous bacon, corn oil on...

Oh nice, I'm the privileged one with the troll.

Everything is great, I'm traveling so I'm sorry I haven't updated! Well, it's been an off few days - my MRI came back totally clean, thank god. We retested my hormones and prolactin is normal, we...

So the seafood buffet was great. Steak, shrimp, salmon drizzled with butter, some sushi, three bowls of chowder. I didn't mess around with the salads and junk. I totalllly got my money's worth. Then...

She says an oral contraceptive for testosterone, I agree that I don't want to go on the freaky pill and deal with the nastiness. I reregulated after my past two months of funky business, it's just...

GUYS. YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE. I lost another .5!! I'm down to 161.6!!
Also, I went to go see my naturopath and OB today. My naturopath says I have weak digestion and we're treating it by...

I took a picture of breakfast this morning - grilled bell pepper and onion and eggs drizzled with bernaise sauce. But then I keep forgetting to take pictures of the rest of my meals and I feel like I...

Don't worry girl, you'll be back on track soon. There's always tomorrow. :)

Hey, you started your journal! Sounds like all the exercise is fun. In terms of cheap protein, I know eggs fit the bill. Maybe a nice egg salad for lunch on occasions? I know offal is also usually...

Congrats on your progress so far! It's been nice to read through some of your posts and see your progress :)
