Has anyone out there had success on a Paleo diet? Thoughts?

I'm on Paleo and have lost 20 pounds very quickly. Just wondering if it will continue. And how hard the holidays will be.

    Your weight loss will slow but as long as you are in a calorie deficit you will continue to lose.

    Have you lost weight from Paleo, or have you lost weight from eating at a calorie deficit?

    Science tells me the latter.

    Actually I'm at the same calorie count as before. So I'm thinking it might be the lower carb intake

    The initial loss is usually water weight from the low carbs. Remember to increase your fats/oils. :)
