Haha. Ted, I don't experience weight gain anymore! Well..I do, but it's the weight of the food I eat and the water I drink throughout the day. I would usually track my progress in the morning, because by the time night rolls around I've consumed around 8lbs of food and water.
It definitely was the salt.

Thanks Michael, I'm not looking to lose weight any more. I'm happy where i'm at, I just want to increase my fitness now.

Many people do experience this Grok. I read your blog post, and that's exactly how I felt even after a month. I urge you to stick with it! After only 4 1/2 months I look more fit than I ever have, and it was always a constant struggle before.

Stick to it, Aya. Even Freelee experienced this in the beginning. You may be uncomfortable for a few weeks, or even up to a few months. But what's a few months when you can optain perfect health, fitness, and physique for the rest of your life!?

I saw a reference to Nora Lenz and I would caution others that she calorie restricts and does not advocate much exercise and this mindset parallels calorie restricting/dieting behavior contrary to what is necessary to be healthy and successful on the lfrvd. But since she has been at it a while, it may give newcomers an example to follow that allows old habbits to be maintained but does not reap longterm success. And also, if you are calorie restricting it will actually take much longer for weight loss to occur because binging is the side affect.

Thanks for the information, Jaime. I wasn't aware that she follows a calorie restriction model.  I certainly don't advocate for that, as I often eat 4000 calories per day. Calorie restriction is not sustainable long term.

What an inspiring post, Tarah. I found this so useful in even realizing and adjusting my expectations of eating this way. I see that I expected and desired quick results like when following a diet plan or something. But now I am committed to living this lifestyle and tracking my symptoms with the mindset that this is just what my body has to go through. I haven't been doing it long so we'll see. :) Right now I'm sick, bleh. :(

A photo from yesterday. In the last 5 years I dont know ANYONE on the planet that chows down as much fruit as I do. Im clearly struggling with excess weight. 

 

So here is the picture of they guy that eats the most fruit in the last 5 years. Wouldnt it be great to see pics of the people that eat the most animal, milk, oil etc? 

 

Do any females eat as much fruit as Freelee in the last few years?
