i was thinking maybe because I'm not fully paleo? not dairy free, and still eat potatoes...but jen you are fully dedicated, right??

I just started taking clay...maybe that'll help??
our own bump parade!!!


No, I'm not fully dedicated. I am as much as I can, but I'm not 100%. Last weekend I may have had a few too many beers... that could explain some bloat.

Eating primal has messed a bit with my regularity. Do you think that could be part of the issue? I'll be honest that I haven't really delved into why and what to do about it, since it's kind of intermittent for me. I did notice on my Facebook feed that Balanced Bites has recently done a podcast episode on "All About Poop" that I've been meaning to listen to... Don't know if that's helpful or not, but I thought I'd throw that out there.

Just wanted to say that I have officially lost 13 pounds and I eat a TON of fat. I'm reading Eat Fat, Lose Fat right now, but hadn't read it prior to bumping up my fat intake.

I can certainly tell the difference in my mood, hunger levels and the scale when I've eaten more fats. Right now it's a ton of butter, coconut oil and avocado.

Jodi, I hadn't yet thought about putting olive oil on my foods. I was doing it only when eating salads since I stopped using dressing. (The combo of olive oil and a bunch of goat cheese on my salad has made me forget that Ranch dressing is even a thing!) I think I'll start drizzling olive oil on my foods before eating.

(((hug))) To the bump mamas That must be tough. I am not sure because we never had that. DD1 who struggled with looking pg whenever she ate certain foods had that disappear almost instantly on GAPS.

To those of you who are bloated, how do you feel? Are you gassy? Bloated? Heavy? And have you considered pushing broth/ferments? If it is yeast die off, that will help it along considerably. Clay would help too.

I have to admit the one thing I am not keen on in paleo/primal is the lack of healing foods. I am beginning to believe that grain/sugar free is not near as important as broth and ferments in the scope of a healthy body

Yes, paleo and primal don't exclude. . . they do mention broth and probiotics (although I don't have "Make it Paleo". BUT Gaps makes it a "staple" broth and probiotics . . . like "the backbone" of GAPS. . . . I believe it's the years of bone broth that gifted us with VERY rapid healing on GAPs. We push broth in EVERYTHING. We eat it in meals at least once a day and on good days we get it 3 times a day. We eat probiotics a few times a day too

I think they're really important . I may be in different paleo/primal influences but I read a lot about the importance of bone broth, ferments, etc... as part of the lifestyle. It's something I'm slowly dipping my feet into (making my own broth started this week). A few paleo cookbooks i have talk about it and give recipes too.

whoa. that's a lotta broth. soooooo, I should probably jump on the bandwagon.

Tell me about broth! I'm sure there's lots of threads on it but I'm an impatient type 3. Quickly, so as not to bore anyone else who already knows about it: you make it by slow-cooking a bone for a really long time, right? I read about the difference between bone and meat broth once...anyway. And how to do you incorporate it into so many meals? what are the benefits you have noticed?

I can't speak to benefits since I just made some . It is super easy if you have a crockpot. Find yourself a source for bones. I've read to cook chicken stock for 24 hours and beef for 48 hours. I was actually surprised at how simple it was to do - dump ingredients into crockpot, wait a day or two, strain it out and ladle it into storage containers.

That's right. I think it's basically the same thing, you just want to get all the good stuff out of the bones into the broth so when you drink it/cook with it you get those health benefits .

Can I join?

I've done GAPS for my boys but not myself. I've been correlating ragey episodes to gluten consumption, so I went GF for a weekend saw measurable changes in my equilibrium. Fell off the wagon last week, as we were out of town for MILs funeral.

I'm back on the wagon this week. GF, baby! It's a baby step.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

Oh, and I've been making bone broth weekly now for over a year. Usually chicken. I enjoy it plain. The boys, not so much, so I cook stuff in it, add it to sauces, gravies...

Random question - is it okay if I put lots of Real Salt in my bone broth when I drink it? Or is there any reason to drink it "bland?"
