Hey all, just thought I'd update you on another blog in which I'm participating. I've been living "primally" for about a month now. The nutshell version of that means that I'm taking a different approach to eating, exercise, and some other lifestyle aspects. I got on this kick after reading Mark Sisson's book The Primal Blueprint. He also maintains an excellent daily blog called Mark's Daily Apple. He'll explain things much better than I could. Essentially, his thesis is that our bodys evolved to their current form eating lots of veggies, fruits, and meats but no grains. So that's the absurdly reduced nutshell version of it.

So far, I've lost 17 lbs., had more energy than ever, been sleeping better, and myriad other health benefits. Beeki's doing it too. She's lost weight and has all the same health improvements that I've seen. My mom's doing it too and has lost 20 lbs. and gotten off her blood pressure medication. Beeki's dad and brother are doing it too and reporting great results so far.

So we decided to start a family blog. We'll be talking about our experiences, posting recipes and links, and encouraging each other. If you've got any interest, feel free to read along. If you don't care... well... join the majority of humanity. It won't hurt my feelings.

I hope you're all doing well! I'm actually working on some other news about another new blog... stay tuned!
