Lesson #126 - Fat Is Not So Fabulous

The Man decided a few months back that he would be going on a new diet. His plans of following the "Primal Blueprint" were harder than I expected. After having 2 chitlins, though, I was desperate to find something that would work for me in terms of losing the weight.

I don't know if you've ever heard of this "Primal Blueprint" but it is actually quite the interesting diet plan. I apologize, it is less of a diet and more of a lifestyle. There are books on the topic, blogs, articles and a host of other information dedicated to the topic.

Now, I haven't read much about it - yet...but my basic understanding is that you eat as much as you want in terms of fat and calories. The big no-no here are carbs...so we have thrown out all breads, pasta and most of the sugar (I mean, I don't want the kiddos to have to suffer...not being bribed or anything).

So far, so good I suppose. The Man has lost almost 10 lbs and I am down about 5 lbs (it has only been about a month for me so far...and I cheat sometimes). We will see how this whole lifestyle goes, but if it can help me take another 30 lbs off - then I'll owe it my 3rd born (I'm kinda attached to my first 2)!

How about you out there in bloggy-land?! Any diets work/not work for you?? Did you pair it with exercise or was a meal modification good enough for your weight loss??
