Just a quick update. Today is my one-year anniversary on Paleo.
For those who might have followed this thread...
http://cavemanforum.com/miscellaneous/strategy-to-reduce-blood-pressure-quickly/I somehow got the job and I'm now in Alaska working. I drove here from the Los Angeles area (5-1/2 days and almost 4,000 miles, yes, on the Alaska Highway in Winter) and it was almost impossible to stay strict during the journey. I'm in a hotel now for a couple weeks, which is also a challenge, but I'm working through it. I'm still losing weight, almost 50 lbs. total now since I started this WOE. Bought some new jeans last night. They are the size I wore when I was 25 years old, some 22 years ago! That would be 6-inches off my waist from a year ago. All of this is:
-Without additional exercise
-Without counting calories
-Without starving myself or controlling portions
I will never go back to SAD.
Thanks again to all who have helped me along the way here. Cheers!
