I've been living 80/10/10 RV for the past 4 months and I'm constantly improving on this path. Not yet ready to use my Lifestyle Health Coach Level One Certification until I think my own diet is where I think it needs to stay for optimal health. I've had many days over 10% fat and have just two days ago eliminated tahini and green salad olives from my big daily salads because I realized that I've been feeling more sluggish and I've gained over 5 pounds actually about 8 pounds. Now I have been weightlifting so some weight gain perhaps is alright and am at 2800 calories per day level but still I think that being too close to the 10% fat daily limit has caused me to increase weight. I'm at 183 and want to get back down under 180 to high 170's which for me at 6'4" is a much leaner self and I think that will happen in just a few days from now that I'm doing lower fat. Also i dont know about you but for me when im at a more optimal weight for me workouts tend to go better like i dont feel like im working against myself. Little by little I'm eliminating bad things from my diet and improving which I'm very proud of as I should be. So with my salads I have Skinny Girl dressings either balsamic vinegarette, poppyseed, or Italian dressing. This to me is one hurdle I'm struggling to overcome. After a while of doing no salad dressing and making my own fruit dressing I cannot find any dressing I make that tastes good to me. I did buy a raw vegan salad dressings recipe book but all were high fat. I know that some of the ingredients in Skinny Girl dressings are not optimal for me like vinegar, sodium, and etc. So I wanted to ask the community for some yummy salad dressing recipes so I can save money and evolve my health this coming new year and beyond?

Hey Doug and everyone. I often encounter claims saying plain water actually dehydrate us and is not well absorbed by the body, and that only structured fluids hydrate us properly. is there any truth in that? it does somewhat make sense to me as generally speaking I feel like the more I drink the more thirsty I am. would love to hear your thoughts. here's an example for such a claim:

I so look forward to getting home and resuming a steady pace of interacting here. I'll be home in three more weeks, and a day. :) Here's to loads more conversations, opportunities, and learning! I've been leading a fast, and the results have really been spectacular for each faster. I'm putting in insanely long days, and as the song goes, I'm loving every minute of it. What have you been up to?

HIIT? Is it really effective. I just finished watching the "feel the burn" video of Dr D and it makes so much sense. In light of it, what do you think of the so promoted Hiit exercises where short intense 30 sec to 1 min intervals are alternated with light cardio?
