"I do Bikram yoga. Has anyone else here done Bikram then moved on in a different direction with a private practice that you're involved with on a daily basis with intensity? I'd love to hear more about your experience and how your practice…"

Mike Collins commented on Mike Collins's blog post Day Three Learning Curve

"I intend to get a copy of the book asap. Mono eating came to my attention when I went into the forums searching terms related to my issue (isn't that a nice way to be vague?)."

"HI Mike Have you read Doug Graham's The 80/1010 Diet yet? This is really THE book to read so you get off to the right start. As far as digestive issues, are you familiar with mono-eating? That's eating only one fruit at a time until…"

Too new to make a lot of noise

I've come a long way from wearing pants with a 42 inch waist down to a size 34. But even size 34 is too big. Replacing diet coke with water as my main beverage, getting more active and doing bikram yoga have all made a tremendous difference. Although I've been doing bikram for about three and a half years, I feel that what I eat is even more important than exercise. Not to discount exercise, but it's the lesser component of balanced fitness.I've experimented with various styles of eating,…See More

Day Three Learning Curve

Big time trouble. I've been eating a wide array of fruits non-stop to the point where my digestive system has sent an ALL CAPS memo for immediate attention.Going into a water fast until my digestive system calms down. Lesson one appears to be eat meals, let them digest, be careful about the foods combined. I'd like to avoid another digestive system memo like this one.See More

Welcome Them!

Profile Information

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: I have a consistent yoga practice, Bikram. I stumbled across durienrider's video and laughed my ass off as he described the pollution with everyone farting in class. Choose not to believe me if you will, but I've never farted in class! I swear. Anyway, I love the Bikram sequence and Bikram's koolaid, but much as I love him, riding my bicycle and sweating for 90 minutes I still think he's full of s***. Aren't we all?

Lately I've been doing paleo. Look at me... I'm even dumber than I look? I went to paleo AFTER reading China Study and seeing the movie Forks Over Knives. Time to swallow a humility pill. As much as I like yoga and riding a bicycle, and swinging a kettlebell, in my heart I feel that exercise is simply a complement to a balanced diet. But what is a balanced diet? I've been looking for something that allows me to eat the way I want to eat. And how is that? I want to eat when I'm hungry, I want to eat until I'm satisfied, I want to feel good about what I eat, and I want to feel good after I eat. I am so ready for 30bad. I just ate two bananas, I have a fresh pineapple that I plan to eat as soon as I finish my application, then it's off to stock up on dates, figs, bananas... just prior to this I was browsing spiral slicers for zucchini. You gotta let me in! I'm a believer!

What is your gender? PLEASE NOTE: To enhance the community experience, profile pics of yourself are *REQUIRED* to gain membership. Membership will be declined otherwise.: male, man

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:: I really want to be HCRV and just need some guidance

Reading "The 80-10-10 Diet" by Dr Doug Graham is vital for succeeding on this lifestyle. Please acquire this book as soon as possible.: I will read the book

Are you Connected?: no single

My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are....: I like Bikram yoga, Preston Beach, the 1369 in Cambridge right next to Life Alive, my favorite restaurant. I love mindmapping, magick and serenity.
