Hi all.

I just joined the forum.

I read the Paleo Diet and Primal Blueprint, and took it from there. It seems to work really well.

I don't eat bugs though.

hey DFH--I recognize you from Mark's forum--how is the Leptin Reset going?

LJB · 07-02-2011, 07:25 AM

Nah, I am a picky eater when it comes to land bugs.

Sea cockroaches are tasty!

Yummy Lobster!!

Get organic romaine hearts. "Organic" means "with bugs included" I think, judging by the amount of buggy lettuce I've gotten.

Hi!

Yeah, same DFH.

Leptin reset has changed a few things, but I'm not sure if I needed it really. I had already lost weight and my rT3 was low. I was just doing it to see what happens.

I sleep better and got away from "grazing," which I had been doing since early 2008. I'm still getting used to how much to eat if I just do 3 meals and don't snack.

Probably the best move was getting out my tea kettle and doing green tea instead of so many lattes!

DFH--the only sane way I have lost weight is 3 meals a day with no snacks--snacking was the biggest problem--I had no idea what a difference it would make when I allowed my insulin time to clear blood glucose--4 hours between meals and a long IF fast from dinner to brunch at 11 has made all the difference for me--I am not going to mess with that by trying all that protein within 30mins of waking.

I wouldn't rule out eating bugs, but I don't know which ones taste good and which ones to avoid. Someone should write a book or have a website on the local edible ones. Heck, aren't locusts considered kosher if prepared correctly?
