Just made a chicken in the crock pot yesterday--YUM!  With veggies!

I then took the carcass and miscellaneous and put in back in the crock pot and covered it with water and let it stew from 5pm until 630am.

I strained everything and put the bones in a ziploc and put in the freezer.  The stock I am not sure what to do with .  Do I freeze it in ziplocs as well?  right now it's in my frig.....

BTW---gave my pups some of the meat last night with some of the stock...my Aussie ate his dinner so fast he threw it up later.  I think he had it gone in 3 bites. :o

Hehe you don't need to save the bones after you've made the stock, just throw them out. The stock you should portion up and freeze. Remember it'll expand a bit as it freezes so don't completely fill any of your containers.

The only reason I or anyone else was freezing the bones was to save them all until we had enough bones to make stock with.
The answer to your question is 'eat more fat'.

Stop counting calories. If you are eating Paleo, there is usually no need.

If you are having weight loss issues, it'd be a good idea to start posting a detailed food journal, then everyone can help.

'Anecdotal Evidence' is an oxymoron.

A study determined that "prolonged cooking of a bone in soup increases the calcium content of the soup when cooked at an acidic, but not at a neutral pH".[9]

That's why I've heard recommendations of using apple cider vinegar to help draw out the calcium in the stock.
