Merry Christmas, everyone, and a happy new year!
My family and I are lucky enough to be celebrating the holiday season in Aspen this year. We’re playing, resting and relaxing before the new year begins. Before I get back outdoors, mimicking Grok in the snow, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their support this year. Thank you for reading Mark’s Daily Apple, for participating in the forums, for commenting on my articles and for being active participants in this little experiment meant to change lives for the better. I couldn’t do it without you! Happy Holidays!
And here are a few articles that I think are fitting for this holiday season:

That’s right, a little place called ‘Aspen!’

Mark,
I want to wish you a fantastic 2010, and to THANK YOU for literally changing my life. I started following your eating plan a mere 20 days ago. I wasn’t expecting much, to be honest, and wasn’t shooting for any drastic changes in my diet. I’ve eliminated grains, been keeping carbs under 100, and am keeping starchy veggies and sugars to a minimum. But even with these small changes I have already lost 10 lbs. That’s not the most amazing thing, though. I feel like I’ve finally been freed from my obsession with food. I used to wake up in the morning starving, eat, then two hours later want to eat again. I kept thinking about food almost constantly, and I ate a lot. I craved salty snacks and coffee constantly. If I didn’t eat, I would get headaches, jitters, fatigue and nausea.
Now I feel like food no longer controls me, and it’s an amazing feeling. I wake up and can easily wait 5-6 hours until I eat. I used to be skeptical about fasting, but now I actually do it naturally and without any effort whatsoever. When I eat, I’m satisfied with much smaller portions than before, and I feel like everything tastes better. I no longer crave junk (or carbs for that matter), and have tons more energy. Gym used to be a chore, now it’s pure fun. Hunger and fatigue have become alien concepts.
I wanted to post this here instead of e-mailing you directly, so that others who are on the metaphorical nutritional fence might read it. Primal Blueprint liberated me, made me so much healthier and stronger. It really WORKS!
Thank you for everything you do, Mark, and once again, a happy and healthy 2010 to you and all your family and friends. Keep on rocking!!
