Their secret: Work out hard, and eat like a cave man (Crossfit and Paleo Diet)

Thanks...

Interesting thing (at least to me): I didn’t start this with weight loss as the primary goal. I just hadn’t seen the changes, health-wise, I wanted to see with anything else.

I exercised...a lot. I tried all kinds of dietary regimens. I just didn’t see the health benefits. I was strong; I was conditioned...But I still felt crummy after eating and felt like something was way out of whack for me, metabolically. I was carrying a lot of excess weight, but carried it easily. I didn’t LOOK fat; I was just a “big guy”.

I finally figured I was just WAY insulin-sensitive. I wanted to feel better; be healthier.

And I’m a little crazy in that when I get into something, I’ll get in all the way. This way of living/eating made sense to me...and it fit with what I see all around me.

It ain’t the carbs...it’s the insulin.

The weight loss was an added benny...

Thanks for your comments.
