I posted this in my food journal. I guess it should have gone here.

Today makes 4 weeks and I feel amazing!

My blood sugar levels are stable all day.

I have NO cravings for anything at all.  There are 2 different kinds of cake in the house right now. I have no desire for either. 

My recovery rates are incredible!!!!! 

My asthma is a non-issue. 

I don't have a dire need for food after even really hard exercise sessions.

My girlfriend keeps calling skinny and telling me my body appearance is changing.

I think I am down about 1/2 a waist size?

I can't wait to see what I look like at 90 days. I know this is a lifestyle for me now. My athletic performance matters most to me. At 42 I need to find a fountain of youth of some kind.

Sounds like you're doing great!

Thanks Warren! It is soo very exciting.

It's way more than I could have hoped for.
My asthma has always been a juggling act of relaxation and perceived exertion.
I don't wake up with stiff joints.
I don't have that "I neeeed coffee" feeling. 

My girlfriend is baking up a storm and I have NO desire for any of it.  There is a Zip-Lock full of gourmet corn bread right behind me, right this minute. I could care less. It's just amazing to me.

When I was fighting full time I lived by the food scale. I ate a diet designed by a firm called PR Nutrition. It was a 40/30/30 program. This is soooooo much easier. I feel tons better.

I just want to share this with everyone. They just ask "What are you eating? ", "You have to eat rice?", "You have to eat pasta?" How much meat are you eating? You're going to get sick!" "Yea, but, potatoes are good!" So I have given up  .

Hey Tarlach, Wow, I hope your friends o.k. I hope you can get him to listen to at least a little of your experience.

Hey Marika, That's a good report  . Sounds like your body is letting know what you need not be consuming. Except for the nuts the rest isn't Paleo anyhow.
Keep up the good work  .

This is just a small step in progress, since I don't weigh myself it's one of my measures of progress.
Last week when I was mountain biking I wore my favorite baggy bike shorts and they were falling off of me. This morning I pulled out a pair I haven't worn in while that are 1 waist size smaller. They fit perfect  . 

That's great! I know it's especially gratifying to bring clothes out of my closet that I've been hanging on to in hopes they would someday fit again and they do. You did it in only four weeks - great job. 

I agree - my jeans are baggier now too!

I have a question though - why would dried papaya (with no sugar) not be Paleo?

Good on you mate! 

I'm glad to see that it's going so well for you.

I bet that is a great reward for the good work you have put in.  I think going 100% paleo is the only way to go.

I agree with a lot of the positive reports other folks have written about!

I'm over 8 weeks in now, and I'm slimmer, (my pants fit much more easily), I don't need to snack anymore, my skin is smoother, my energy level remains good all day - good stuff!!

This is interesting though - I thought for sure I had lost weight since my clothes fit looser now, but I finally got access to a scale, and my weight is still exactly the same. I guess I'm more muscle now!
