in less than 2 weeks by eating primally. Eating scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon every morning for breakfast, no less! Three months out and I`m still losing weight. My original goal was 5 - 7 lbs and I`m now down 10 lbs. For someone my size, that is a Vast number of burden to lose (fairly effortlessly) and I am now back into my pre-Monkey clothes easily. In fact, most of them feel best on me now than they did before.Confession time. I haven`t worked out ONCE since going Primal. I am not proud of this, I`m just saying that my weight loss is show of the assertion of Mark Sisson (author of "The Primal Blueprint") that diet accounts for 80% of weight loss.I do contrive to turn out. I wish to be healthier and make some nice muscle tone (as opposed to just being thin). I wish to be capable to hold up with my boys and not bear to sit things out because I bear no stamina. I scarcely want to get it into my schedule (though the PB pooh poohs rigid daily exercise regimes that increase appetite, causing people to wish to carb up).I am not hungry. I would imagine I`m consuming a big mass of calories since I`m eating so much protein. I don`t really find the motivation to count, since I`m more than satisfied with my weight loss. I`m not look to suffer anymore, but I do find the weight I`m at right now is a real "natural" angle for my frame. Also, I`m maintaining it still with the occasional (small) plate of pasta or 1/2 a bagel. Or small portion of ice cream. (Thank you, PB for the 80/20 theory that being primal 80% of the time will even get you fantastic results. It would be WAY too strong to be primal 100% of the time).Please recognize that the use of this position is not to brag. It is likewise not to label anyone else on how they eat or prefer to lose weight (if that is something he/she is doing). I am not even imposing the way that I eat on my children. I`ve followed other "diets" and never seen results like this. I would look like I`m holding out on you if I didn't share this info.Eating this way is not intuitive. Not initially, anyway. Sometimes, it`s not very fun (giving up sugar can SUCK, until you find alternatives). But, the way I feel can`t be beat. The way the angle has melted off without me having to do anything else is phenomenal. The way I NOW feel when I do eat crappy food is just not deserving it.I`m not trying to convince you. I only thought you might need to recognize that there is a way to lose weight, without counting points, or calories or working yourself out to death. If this post intrigues anyone enough to see it out, I find that I`ve done something good.
