Amazing D.
I've lost a couple of pounds with no lifestyle changes other than completely nixing wheat in all forms.
-
Paleo for me is a very simple life change not a diet. I have no desire to eat anything other than the foods I have become accustomed to. I have tons of energy and feel great. For me it's a no brainer, the weight loss is just an added bonus.

Couldn't agree more. I have a few rules of thumb:
-
if I can't understand the food chain that put a food in front of me, don't eat it. I don't know what a cheetoh is or where it came from, but I know what a tomato is and basically where it came from (especially if it's from my CSA).
-
no grains. This doesn't include quinoa
-
lots of lean (and where possible grass fed) protein, lots of vegetables, and a little fruit, particularly berries. Nuts…. Avoid omega-6 rich oils.
These rules of thumb afford me a very broad range of foods that I think are healthful. This means it's a feasible lifestyle change. Veganism for me would not be feasible, it would be too constrained for me to maintain it.

right there with you my brother…though I have to say that I'm not 100% paleo anymore (as you all can see in the beer thread!)...food-wise I'm trying the best I can to still be paleo to at least 90-100% and imo I do pretty good and run pretty good with it! lost about 22lbs. since changing my habbits/life a few months ago and I really do feel great...not missing a thing (though I've had a few paleo unfriendly things, I'm super happy to say that the "want" factor isn't there anymore and I totally can live without that stuff without having the feeling that I'm missing something...which I think is more than great!).
losing weight is just one of the positive side effects when going paleo...

Y'all look like the class of the division after last night's train wreck!

Taking my 634's back to their birthplace today. I really don't know yet if I'll have the time to visit The Works in Hachioji since I'm only staying in Tokyo for 2+3 nights and there's so much I haven't seen there yet but I'll see what I can do. Gonna travel around Honshu and Kyushu (and hopefully Shikoku as well) for two weeks. Soooooooo excited!

Today I get my first pair of Vibergs, which are more likely to fit than what I was sized and ordered thanks to a stunning act of generosity by Giles, allowing me to trade out my E for a D. I didn't ask for this, he volunteered. What a great dude, thanks again man.
Also today, I receive my ZeeBee Leather belt, which some of you have seen pictures of in the ZeeBee thread. Obviously, I am very excited about that as well.
