Paleo diet

Just starting on my Paleo diet - very similar to Atkins - having tired of my Mr Blobby period and wanting to get back to where I was 4 years ago.

It addresses our inner Neanderthal - our hunter gatherer ancestry that evolved to survive in North Western Europe without grain based diets which are alien to our digestive systems and lead to weight gain, sloth, diabetes, blood pressure etc etc.

Gym membership started and, thank God for muscle memory, firming up after the 3rd visit - even if I feel like I've sprained my whole body !!! No pain though.....no gain.

So much of my diet and digestion problems stem from BREAD. Bloating, indigestion, reflux and constipation.

The Atkins diet cured it all and so will the Paleo diet.

The big "gain" on both those diets is weight loss....

Looking forward to getting into all those jeans I have stored away....
