Hello Q! I wanted to stop by and say hello. Dude, way to rock the exercise.

I notice that my knowledge of health matters is not greatly increasing by the use of this site. For the most part I know what I need to do.

I also note that my solution is one for a metabolically challenged/compromised individual and most here do not need or want to listen to the information I have put together.

I note this just to let people know where I am and why I post less often than i used to. Life consists of learning then living. I am currently living.

I will stay around and I will reply. I have work to do. The next 100 does not appear to be as willing to go as the first 200 so I may need more information or just accept that I am a BIG boy. assuming I turn out like the Rock or 1970's Arnold then perhaps i can accept that.

The primal life is a good one. I hope everyone enjoys living their version of it.

Enjoy living and from reading what you put together, I know you will uncover a way to live your best life. You did help me a lot.

I think that Harry Dresden taught me a huge lesson about how to deal with fear. Turn it into anger, use that anger to fuel positive change.

I am slowly reading your journal and am alternately heartbroken and inspired by your strength and courage.
You make me a bit ashamed of my own whinings. I had to stop and comment here as I just finished the new Harry Dresden. In case you have not read it I will not give much away but he discusses being predator not prey (made me wonder if Jim Butcher lived a primal life?) and talks of overcoming fear by just doing what has to be done regardless of how you feel. It was for me the best I have read in the series perhaps because I am trying to learn those principals.

Thank you Quelsen for sharing your journey with us.

This weekend i ate doughnuts and cookies.

the local doughnut shop Spaldings got my business after about an 18 month hiatus. also the russian market had some cookies that required eating...

why??? why would i break my string of perfection...

I felt like it... My sugar cravings had gone on long enough that i felt it was biologic and not psychologic. even Grok got honey every now and again

Results.... up 10 pounds over the last 48 hours.... so lets see how long it takes my body to dump this.

only push i will provide is extra mag cit.


in totally unrelated news I was able to procure pure melatonin in bulk... now i can choose my own dose without filers and multiple pills... damn that filler.

so bulk gets of late
Mag cit
Melatonin
Sylimarin
Licorice
pregnenolone
Vitamin C
NAC
MSM

i feel much safer with bulk given that i control the ingredients ( as much as the supplier is honest anyway)

Yay!! Don't you love it when something goes right?

[quelsen]

i do.

I have been on this journey a relatively short time however i think i am seeing some trending. this sugar spike was intended to force a change in my hormone response. MY concern is that with no significant deviation from my eating habits each winter sees me at a higher weight than the summer and fall.

i thought that mammals trended down in winter and up in fall. that means to me that something is still off and i want to figure out what it is.

I also notice that regular melatonin intake seems to correlate to stable or reduced weight.

Pluto is in 27 Degrees Virgo.
For your entire generation, this will be a time when profound changes in society's attitude toward work, duty and responsibility will be initiated. Radical changes in attitudes toward personal health and general nutrition will be promulgated and gain wide acceptance and practice.

Woot on the mindful deviation and subsequent inflammation and reduction. I had dim sum, went up 3 lbs, and back down in 4 days. But I didn't end up binging for 4 days, so I feel in control. And at the end of the day, it is all I want, to be on control, not turned into a mush of slave to the chemicals and calls of our processed food culture. You are living it!
