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!
no no no the HCG diet is GOOD for you, but even better if you pair it with crack.
Do I look like I do crack?!
I didn't want to tell you, but.... since you asked.... little bit, yea
Ah crap. At least I don't have meth mouth...I don't, do I?
No. You have all of your teeth.0 -
Better question is this.................................Ok so what kinda alcoholic beverages did Cavemen consume??? :devil:
Well, I doubt they took time out of their day to stomp grapes. Beer and most liquor is made from grains *gasp* So ... what's left?0 -
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTT Modern food is worse for you than caveman food....just sayin.
I'm on your side. I think it's more or less the word "DIET" making people think it's just another one for marketing, which there are so many fad diet out there.
If people read exactly what the "diet" is about, and stop thinking it's another diet but focusing on what this is about, they might have different opinion on it.0 -

I haven't read the whole book, only parts of it, but in Primal Blueprint Sisson says if you're going to drink Tequila is where it's at and to that I say "hell yeah!" If you don't like tequila wine is okay too. Personally I try to eat primal 60% of the time (moving towards 80%) but I drink vodka & soda and wine

first off if most people actually looked at what the word diet really meant ,
Noun: The kinds of food that a person, animal, or community habitually eats.0 -

It looks as though this thread has mostly devolved into silliness, but to answer the original OP, I have been eating paleo for about three weeks now. I love it!
I wasn't eating too much really processed stuff before, but I had been mostly vegetarian for a year, so I was coming from a pretty heavily whole-grain and legume-based diet. I am also going fairly low-carb for the moment (50-80 g, so not anything super extreme for someone of my size) to try and lean out. In the first week I definitely "de-puffed" and dropped a pants size almost right away. I realize this is mostly water, but I sure feels nice to not feel so bloated all the time. I also notice that I am much more satiated these days. I have stopped tracking except for one day a week just to see how I'm doing at estimating, and I am finding that I am really full while eating well within a healthy range of calories for dropping a couple pounds.0 -

One school of thought is this was the reason to begin agricultural development, have steady crops of grains to make alcohol.0 -

I don't know about twinkies. Nobody I know eats them. DO they live next to the factories? But wait! You can get Twinkies at the grocery and convenience stores, right? Whereas the paleo man, not having a car or grocery store, would likely only get limes from the tree. But those cavemen were probably pretty hardcore and just chugged it straight.0 -

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 didn't link it either till now I"m not following Paleo but the only carbs I've been getting in the past month have been from dairy, fruits and veggies. No breads, pastas, added sugar, etc. I've been sleeping better than ever, not to mention I have no digestive issues anymore and many more positive changes!! 0 -

This part of your post is relevant.I don't believe in it.
And this part....
...is just you being a d-bag.Guess what? You're not a Caveman anymore. Your body has evolved, Your diet should too.
Enjoy! But let me know how that works out for you in 5 Years. If you can stick to it for 5 Years. I am a d-bag and a Grandmom.0 -

Bitter much? Maybe you'd be better off if you just let go of the land of the living there Granny. I'm sure everyone who has to be around you would be much happier...
Wow, way to harsh!!! Everyone is entitled to there opinion, doesnt mean she is right or wrong!!!0 -
I don't eat meat; don't need the increased risk of heart disease and cancer. You're right there is a problem with grains in the modern diet - refined grains. There is a world of difference between the nutritional content of diverse, whole grains and refined grains. Also, not enough fruits and veggies are consumed, either. I think this is the bottom line. My protein comes from nutrient rich legumes, seeds, nuts and plants, and I don't need flesh of other animals to stay healthy.0

Yeah, but those "evolved" diets don't seem to be working out terribly well for humanity. If it doesn't have the term "caveman" or "paleo" slapped in front of it, is a diet of vegetables, meats, fruits and nuts not "evolved"? If not, how is it not?
Is it better to take advantage of the latest in "food technology" offered up by Kraft, General Mills and the like? If so, why? Please point me to the advantage these foods provide besides price and convenience (neither of which are related to the body, which you cited in your comment).0
