I'm recommitting myself to a healthy lifestyle after some time off & need some accountability!

    Paleo is not healthy in my eyes.

    You might find better support in a group: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/37-primal-paleo-support-group

    I followed the paleo diet for a few years. It's very healthy. Clean meat, fruits, veggies, nuts, and healthy oils. What's not healthy about that?

    It's healthy-ish. It's just very restrictive and cuts out whole food groups that are actually good for and it's based on a bunch of presumptions about Neolithic man and modern hunter-gather societies that, frankly, aren't held up by science and anthropological studies.

    That said, I have one paleo crockpot cookbook that I love for healthy, simple recipes- zucchini soup... Mmmmmmm...
