    I don't believe in it.


    So… you don’t think it exists?


    To the OP, I follow a paleo lifestyle and love it. The massive amount of grains that we are told we “need” causes more problems than people realize. About 65% of my calories come from meat, the rest from vegetables, and some fruit, nuts and oils (olive and coconut). I have more energy, stay full longer, and get plenty of fiber and calcium (which are generally arguments against this type of lifestyle)


    Thanks for the awesome answer man! so this diet is really open to meats?

    Lol... Yes it is entirely based around meat.

    Well im definetly out... I hate red meat... Ugh!

    Guess what? You're not a Caveman anymore. Your body has evolved, Your diet should too.
    I don't believe in it.

    This is offensive. I have Celiac (gluten intolerance), are you saying my body is less, "EVOLVED" than yours because it can't process/digest wheat/gluten? that my diet is less evolved? That's insulting and rude.

    Your body just isn't used to gluten. Why don't you suck up the cupcakes like in your signature and join us more civilized folk. Boo hoo.

    I ate gluten for years and was just sick all the time. Don't you tell me what to eat or how to run my life! Next you'll be telling me the HCG diet is bad for me and I should eat my exercise calories!


    hmm your sig says zombies don't eat cupcakes, You say you don't eat cupcakes. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm YOU ARE A ZOMBIE

    I just finished a 30 day Paleo challenge and LOVED IT. I lost 11 lbs and feel fantastic. My sleep has improved greatly, despite two wee ones who like to wake me up at night and I no longer get the mid afternoon slumps. I eat loads of veggies, some fruit and meat. It's great. The challenge ended yesterday but I am not going back to eating grains, legumes or soy. I have decided to lighten up a bit from the challenge and have wine and dark chocolate, as well as some dairy when necessary (ie when it is in curries and stuff)

    hmm. not on paleo, but have cut back on carbs, no bread rice, or pasta in a week and only occasional hints of sugar and i have been sleeping like baby!!! never linked the two until u posted this!

    I did it, and having a job where I sit at my desk for 8 hours a day I have not gained weight in a few years... but... I also have not LOST any after the first month or so. But, if you combine it with an exercise program I bet it would work great. I just happen to be doing P90X at the moment and if you do not do the fitness, diet and supplements there is not garuntee it will work... but, it very closely resembles the caveman diet.

    Pretty much other than fiber, carbs suck and are useless. In my opinion. I have added a high fiber english muffin to my diet every other day.

    So, OP... I will be a good case of what happens when you leave the diet after several months (Years really...) and start working in high fiber carbs....

    According to Wiki page, it call Paleolithic diet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleolithic_diet)

    "The modern dietary regimen known as the Paleolithic diet (abbreviated paleo diet or paleodiet), also popularly referred to as the caveman diet, Stone Age diet and hunter-gatherer diet, is a nutritional plan based on the presumed ancient diet of wild plants and animals that various human species habitually consumed during the Paleolithic era—a period of about 2.5 million years duration that ended around 10,000 years ago with the development of agriculture. In common usage, such terms as the "Paleolithic diet" also refer to the actual ancestral human diet. Centered on commonly available modern foods, the "contemporary" Paleolithic diet consists mainly of grass-fed pasture raised meats, fish, vegetables, fruit, roots, and nuts, and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, salt, refined sugar, and processed oils."

    This does not sounds bad at all ===> "Paleolithic diet consists mainly of grass-fed pasture raised meats, fish, vegetables, fruit, roots, and nuts, and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, salt, refined sugar, and processed oils."

    To me, it's sounds like eating whole food, natural food, and stay away from process food.
