So, I apologize for not posting much lately, I've been sort of preoccupied. My husband is going away for the summer, and I am spending as much time with him as I can, which means less time in blogland. I'm still sticking to my Whole30 challenge, although I have not lost any weight...I am also spending this downtime reading several books by Lyle McDonald. His books are very easy to read. He has a simple and direct way of conveying complicated information. Anyway, his books have inspired me to go back to a lower carb version of paleo. One note however, I am going to be lacto-Paleo this time. I have thoroughly tested the theory that dairy products are partially to blame for my difficulty losing weight, and other issues I have had. There really seems to be no connection. There is no point giving up things I truly enjoy just because some people have issues with dairy. I'm not one of them, and I'm sick to death of coconut milk in my coffee...So cheese, and half and half are back on the menu. (Organic or grassfed of course, and only a couple of times a week...)
I'm glad you're back! I agree with you on the dairy, I have made many attempts to give it up but I never can go for more than a few weeks. I just go with it now and try not to overdo it. I can never understand why the Paleo community is so down on dairy. Mark Sisson over at MDA is less adamant and calls it a grey are. I'm with Mark. I have no issues with it, digestive or otherwise, and I like it.
