Thread: Help...

I'm new to the site, I've been calorie counting for a while and I've lost weight. I haven't eaten gluten and cut out a lot processed food for months as it gives me trouble with bloating and digestion, which makes me interested in the primal diets. Just need some help... As I'm fed up with calorie counting, Any advice would be grateful about exercise and food plans... Thanks

A good place to start is to read marksdailyapple.

I drink hot lemon water now or just water sometimes I wish I could have a latte or mocha but its all for a good cause

Yes, your right

Good luck with it - its hard for about the first 4 days...but then its like riding a bike downhill...x

Thanks, how much exercise? I walk everyday and play squash a couple of times a week. Should I increase this?

DO what you feel you can.... if you have loads of energy one week do more... if you're tired do less.....

Lots of walking is a fab start though!!!

Well it's been a couple of days, not been hungry which surprised me.. Are headaches the norm? (Not thumping but just in the background). I've been drinking water throughout the day, I'm thinking it's coming off fizzy drinks and coffee.

Could be sugar/carb thing the headaches.. withdrawals.. pretty common

Headaches usually last about 3 days, pretty common. Just withdrawls. Keep drinking plenty of water xx

I find a chromium supplement helps!!! X

Had a great night's sleep (which is unusual) and its gone

Mine used to pop up and haunt me in the afternoon, it was like my bodys way of sulking hahah.

keep it up

You could be right... My body sulking for coffee!!! Lol
