Paleo got me to Onederland!

Cuthbert · 07-15-2011, 05:51 AM

You're hearing it here on the Paleo board first. I'm officially in Onederland after 28 years in exile. I am quite stoked about this. I really would like to thank the paleo community and the hours of podcast time that kept me turning my own situation over in my head so I could finally figure out what my body needed to be healthy and happy. The one food that made this the easiest is coconut. I eat about half a whole coconut a day. It's got to be the worlds most perfect food.

Yayyyy!! I am transitioning over to Paleo since I have recently began crossfit. I am hoping the combo of the two will get me to goal, plus I like the concept of Paleo! Congrats again!!!! I certainly know the feeling of seeing a "1" leading that number on the scale, you ROCK!

Great Job! Eating paleo is like a magic secret, how easy and effective it really is, I have never in my adult life felt so 'right' all around, especially health wise, eliminating grains and dairy is what has done this.
So happy for you, and I agree, coconut is the bomb!

That's an excellent question. Now that I'm here, I can see that if I shed a few more pounds in certain areas I could look better, but at the same time I told myself that when I reached 200lbs I would start working on building muscle mass and throw my scale away. I'm not really all that concerned about maintenance since I plan to follow the same style of eating for the long haul. I think for the short term, I'll just let the matter wash over me for a couple days or weeks and keep my eyes open for insight.

Wooohooo! That's awesome, Paul! I'm so very happy for you.

I'll meet you there in Onederland sometime next year. Save me a seat!

That's great! I also just started about 3 weeks ago, and am doing crossfit, among my other exercise activities.
