OR "it's easier NOT to eat" or "taking all the fun out of eating" Did I ever mention my own personal weightloss motto (from back in my chubby days and my Mediterranean roots) Do not eat today what you can eat tomorrow. Do you think I coukd make any money of it? In marketing speak: that would be his Unique Selling Proposition: making it so complicated to eat that you won’t?

Or is he just making you eat paleo (and confusing the heck out of you and making it sound extra hard) to justify his cost?

I often get comments from others saying that the concept of 'dieting' is wrong etc and I DO know this... but it's hard to do what's right and sensible sometimes. It sounds though, as if you know that what you're doing isn't sustainable and I love your "I didn't want to focus on weight loss or diet" mantra! Good luck with whatever you decide! Deb Renee

I've not ever tried such a strict diet, I know it's not for me. But if it's frustrating you this much, maybe it's time to try something else? All new diets need adjustment and time to get use to it, but if it's not for you then move on. That sounds totally not positive and supportive, but in my experience is that if you it's frustrating you this much and you are white knuckling it, it's not something you will do the rest of your life. Find what works for you and go with that. If that means not being as skinny as some stupid AS* chart says you should be then that's fine. That chart can kiss your butt and so can the rest of the world. Focus on you being healthy and happy HUG! Take a deep breath, and try not to kill anyone.

The trainers are really good offering people diet advice, food tracking and stuff - sounds similar to yours. I am not doing it, but it is nice to know I can ask for advice if I want it. And yeh, they are doing some sort of modified paleo type thing too. Good luck and I can't wait to follow how it is going!

I log on spark people :) Still trying to figure out my calorie range, what they suggest doesn't always work so I'm still finding my balance.

I keep trying, and it last about a day, and then it's over. I love avocado! Lately I've been focusing on making fruits and veggies the focus of my meals, and my new favorite breakfast is half an avocado with some black beans, covered in salsa. Sometimes I'll have a piece of Wasa or toast with it. Yum! Maybe I'll try taking pictures again this week. I don’t regularly take pictures, but I often wish I did.
