Havoc, First of all, I want to point out that I (the OP) am not the one who only eats chicken, yogurt and rice. In fact, I eat copious amounts of vegetables (my absolute favorite foods are brussels sprouts and eggplant) as well as a lot of protein and healthy fats (by which I also mean natural...

As others have said, I honestly don't think there's anything radical about the diet we're referring to. Obviously being obsessive about anything isn't healthy, but a paleo or primal style diet seems like it would be perfect for people with CF--high fat, high protein, and lots of vegetables. Not...

Thanks so much for your advice, but I actually have given up wheat--and, for that matter, all grains and most legumes. I never ate grains much so it wasn't that hard, but I started doing it seriously (trying to follow Mark Sisson's The Primal Blueprint) a couple of months ago and I haven't...

Hi everyone, This is probably going to be a hard question to answer, but I figured I'd throw it out there for anyone who might be able to help. For me the most annoying thing by far about CF isn't the daily treatments or taking enzymes (or the consequences of not taking them) but the constant...

Just wanted to add that on strength training days I do moderate to high intensity circuits that include plyometric exercises so that my heart rate (I wear a monitor, which I would recommend) is actually in the cardio zone. So, you get 2 benefits in 1 quick workout.

I was actually a little stunned when I read the original post--what you described is so much more similar to my experience than what I read on most CF blogs. Even though I'm pancreatic insufficient I've never really had trouble gaining weight, and at one point I was even overweight. That's...
