Fiance has celiac and I was looking to lose some weight so I read up on it and gave it a try. A lot of the point for people without an intolerance is that it cuts out a lot of carbs (not that I'm avoiding other carbs or doing atkins or anything) and steadies your blood sugar, so you're less hungry and feel better.
Also, I think a lot of people have some sort of intolerance, but its a spectrum.
Put another way - nobody ever got sick from a wheat deficiency - doesn't hurt to try. So I tried it and its working, might not be everybody's cup of tea but worth a shot if what you're trying isn't working like it wasn't for me.

That's awesome Jeff
What are the major principles of that diet? Same as Caveman diet or are they the same thing?

Here's a kick-ass paleo website from a friend-of-friend down under; http://eatdrinkpaleo.com.au/
Lots of resources free! …says the vege who's stomach does not agree with meat :|

I have p90x. It does everything I need it to do, but I'm a push up, pull up, sit up kinda guy. It provides useful variations for me, and I like their "Ab-ripper X" to burn away all that beer. If you have IPtorrents, I say its worth the 7GB freeleech download.
I don't care for all the talk during the video, so I just mute it.

OK, first hand experience:
p90x does require equipment: pull up bar, dumbells, resistance bands, chairs for push up variations and various dumbell exercises, push up grips/stands, stools for leg kicks during plyometrics, yoga mats/shock-absorbing mats, heart rate monitor if you want one.
Each of the 12 videos are about an hour long (except the cardio and abs videos). you will need water and a towel too.

I've decided to sign up for The Skogg 60 Day Challenge. Maybe that will push me to get back in shape…

Thank you to everyone who has contributed their workout regimen and plans here and in the GORUCK thread. It seems kettlebells are pretty popular, and I have been curious about them for a while now. After looking through everyone's posts, and watching hours of video on technique, I purchased some CAP kettlebells tonight. I'm really looking forward to giving them a go later this week.
Extra S/O to Doug for all the great advice.
Oh, and same/boring/old pushup routine today.

Since I started working back in the city a little bit a go I've been cycling to work daily. Am back into an hour of cycling a day with a few bursty/steep hills each way. 18 months of commuter cycling, 4 month long distance cycling, and now I'm back to commuter and my legs are rubbish again. Really surprising considering I was riding further and doing more, a different kind of work out I know…..
Enjoying it again, painful getting back into it, but not rushing anything and enjoying the pain as process as much as possible
