I'd love to wear shorts to work. Ah, well.

I started running out of notches too, I ditched pants for shorts at the beginning of spring

Went to tighten my belt this morning only to discover I've run out of notches. Time to buy new pants I'm thinking :)

Hi everybody, I joined on August 1st and have been following this diet since that day. Currently, I am living in Indonesia (from California) and have found the variety of fruit here to be perfect to begin eating this way. However, sometimes I struggle with determining with Crono-Meter the number of calories I am consuming, especially with the rather small bananas that are native to these islands but aren't listed with nutrition info on the site. In some ways, I try to overcompensate with lots of deglet noor dates. Also, sometimes I struggle with pushing myself to eat more, more, more. Regardless, overall, I am pleased to be on this path with so many other health-enthusiasts. P.S. Most folks just call me 'Op' instead of my whole name, so feel free.

New kid on the block. This site is just too perfect. The people here are sweet (both in the sense of what they eat and their character). Hopefully you all will send some of the love over here as well.

@April Palus,

To ward off deficiencies such as calcium, and to keep high energy, we recommend to continue eating 2500 calories a day for females, and 3000 calories a day for males.  The body will self regulate on this if one is following the diet 100%.  Obese people will lose, and underweight people will gain.

Peace, PK

I bought a bicycle, best way to shred calories and travel far to get fruit. No gasoline use or road rage anymore.

I've gained a little weight on this new lifestyle...do I need to exercise more? How long before the weight comes off?
