    Not to burst your bubble but with paleo diets the initial huge losses are mostly from water weight due to depleted glycogen stores; you didn't lose two pounds of pure fat in one day. It will eventually stabilize itself, so don't feel discouraged when the rate of loss slows down. If a paleo based diet keeps you in a calorie deficit then keep on keeping on, but it's not necessary for weight loss. Congrats on your progress thus far.

    Initially, most people see a very rapid loss of 5-10 pounds in the first week. This is encouraging, but don’t expect it to last forever: it’s mostly water weight.
