The last two years, a bit less have been nothing short of amazing and magical for me and my family. Two years ago I was 47 and my best friend and dad growing up had gotten dementia. He was living with us and I was absolutely devastated.
I had been morbidly obese and my wife obese for over 20 years. We had a two year old adopted daughter. Things had to change. I started my journey with two key thoughts: the official advice HAD to be wrong. Look around. Unless you are so cynical and think in the last 40 years humans want to be completely unhealthy or have lost all ability to not get obese then the only other conclusion is to look at what changed the last 40 years. Whalah: the low fat advice, red meat is bad, large quantities of fruits are good, industrial vegetable oils are good, natural saturated fats are bad. THAT is what changed.
Our family story got posted as a success story on Mark's Daily Apple. I will link below. And things have only gotten better. I have lost around 12 lbs more while gaining even more muscle. I just get stronger every day. I am going to be a volunteer at PaleoFX in a couple of weeks. If you see me say hi, and me and my wife more than willing to help folk around the Austin area or anywhere else.
