    "I started my journey a few weeks before the paleo challenge officially began, but was not very dedicated.  Starting March 1st, I went whole hog.  After vacation in Feb. I weighed 213.  March 1st around 204.  I have to preface this with saying my weight has been fluctuating between 210-200 for over a year.

    On 3/16/11, I did a body fat analysis with John F. at the rec center, my weight was 196, lean body weight 160.15 and body fat 18.29%, which is average for my age.
    On 4/20/11, I retested my body fat. My weight 188, lean body weight 160.23 and body fat 14.77, which is lean for my age.
    Notice, lean body weight stayed the same, which indicates that I did not lose muscle.
     
    I am amazed at these results.  My pants no longer fit. I bought a pair of jeans last month and they no longer fit. If I continue down this road, I will have to buy a whole new wardrobe. My workout regime has not changed very much since last Aug, when I joined CrossFit.  Therefore, it has to be the diet.
     
    Thanks for the intro to paleo." John K
    We will be coming out with the CFTA casual clothing line-up next month, just for John. ed
