Hi there. I just started doing crossfit about 3 weeks ago and have been attending 3-4times a week. In any case the reason I am here is because obviously I really want to lose weight and the healthy way of doing it. Ive tried all sorts of diets believe me and ive always failed or never really sustained it. Over the past 4 years I have managed to gain 80lbs. I was at 150 - 160lbs and now I am at 230lbs. So I am reaching out to anyone who could help me out with my situation. I feel like im wasting away with what I have been doing. Based on my title alone I am from the philippines and some of you may or may not know but we are a rice eating country. WIth that said most of our food is eaten with rice or at least tastes best with rice. So even when I started Crossfit I noticed I havent really been putting off weight at all. In fact I think I gained more. According to the guys at crossfit its expected because Im gaining muscle. So my question really is what is the best approach to getting into a strict Paleo diet which is inexpensive and at the same time most helpful. Hoping for all your help!
