san628 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hi- I'm on day 18 and am 47 years old. My trainer sent me the information for this because I have struggled with weight loss and the book sounded just like me. The only other program that I have been able to lose weight on has been the HCG diet. I tried the primal BluePrint last year but didn't really lose anything It's been going quite well except for the past two days I have been having all over body joint pain. My fingers have that puffy feeling like after a run on a hot day . My body kind of aches all over. I wasn't sure if I should be taking some Omega-3 capsules as some of the the other ingrediants have glycerine, gelatins, tocopherols. I have been fully whole30 compliant and have not taking any other vitamins, medicines etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted September 26, 2012 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2012 Your fish oil capsules sound okay and fish oil can be very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Is there any chance you're coming down with a bug of some sort? Have you increased your training volume or weights in the last couple of days? Any increase in nut or seed consumption? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san628 Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 I don't think I'm coming down with anything. I have actually lessened my nut consumption from the first two weeks as I didn't feel like I was losing inches so nuts are usually just a few before a workout. My workouts are mostly crossfit like workouts 3 days a week. The only thing I have reintroduced is running but only 3 miles this past Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.

DandJ Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 A couple of days ago I woke up really achey and looking back over my food choices I realized I had a lot of omega 6 and little omega 3 for a couple of days when traveling. This can cause inflammation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san628 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 What would cause too much omega 6?..... eggs or nuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Nuts, for sure. Eggs can add to the trouble if theyre your basic $0.99/dozen grocery store eggs (bc of what the chickens eat). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san628 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 Thanks. Will try to cut out nuts totally and see if that helps. I'll check out the eggs. Usually Egglands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
