^3x a week!
When I want to go party but not get a DUI I ride my bike a mile and a half in 31F weather wearing skirts/dresses; is that a shiver walk?
Either use whey or a vegetable starter and leave the foods in jar covered in cloth for about 3 days. Very easy! (you can find ideas online)
Great job getting rid of the worst of your addictions! And don't worry about slip-ups, they happen.

It's always better to start out sticking to SCD "by the book" and start losing fat by the original plan. Do this for at least two weeks. Then, once you know the SCD works for you, star...
Re: I Did NOT Fall off the Wagon...
I can't imagine how devastating a divorce must be, but nonetheless, happiness is the best revenge... Get into SCD and exercise, go out and do fun things. Get back in touch with your friends and t...

Re: What do you think of this "slow-carb bread"?
I don't think you should eat it every day, but I've seen good results if I make this bread (cut out the honey) and exclude any nuts for that day. I also used un-blanched almond flour since it's ch...

Thank you guys, I've been back on track and just not buying almonds at all. No real results yet but I'll keep you updated.
Re: Something to be said for lowering cortisol??

Hi! I went on SCD to lose inches and tone up, yes. In a day all I make sure to do is get 100+g protein and keep my carbs low and from lentils or ve...
Eat horribly for a month-no gain, back to SCD-gain? WTF.

Re: Impossible go over 1600 calories without being stuffed..
I've found that increasing fat intake is the easiest way to up calories without feeling stuffed. You can never have too much butter if you are an undereater (like me).
Thank you And I know what you mean about being shocked when you look in the mirror; I would watch TV and see bikini models and be like I look li...
Go you! I am yet to work out in a gym. I went from my CrossFit box to working out with a rack in my garage. I'm self-concious and I hate meatheads ...

Re: Cool cheap DIY Kettle bell
I used to do CrossFit out of a guy's garage where he made all the equipment himself and these were what we used. They hold up pretty well and the handles are great, just don't drop them too hard...

Re: Hard cheeses
Hard cheeses definitely have no lactose, but I think Tim opts to exclude cheese just because the cheese most people are used to eating is soft, un-aged and higher is lactose (think cheap cheddar),...

Re: Has anyone else gotten sick on cheat day? (possible TMI)
I have retched over the toilet but did not fully blow chunks. This was on a day that I (5'4.5" 126 lb. female) consumed about 5000 calories. NEEDLESS TO SAY, it was pretty disgusting and I ...
