#dailymission I can't say thumb's up or down. I say, more power to those who are doing it. I'm a vegan so I can't be on this diet plus I love my grains! :D

Funny that that is the question today-we are doing a 30 day paleo type diet right now-on day 6. I don't see how it is good for athletes...I hope my energy picks up as I go-otherwise, whole grains, here I come!

#dailymission THUMBS WAY UP!!!! Paleo will shred you! Also, gluten-free makes you feel lighter, think more clearly, feel more positive. Big fan of the Paleo diet!!

Cindy, I love the way you put that..."shred". It's so true. I have only been eating Paleo for about 30 days but it's like it cuts you without having to weight train!

Certainly not a lot of grains without fiber. :) I found that very same thing I dropped 70lbs just by cutting sugar and carbs without fiber. I try to make sure my carbs contain at least 10% fiber.

I am not eating Paleo, but am certainly restricting grains and sugars/sweeteners. I have them on occasion, but not very often. LOTS of greens and non-starchy veggies. I feel the best I have ever felt and am finally losing weight again after a year-long plateau. Following Dr. Gundry's diet evolution 80-90%.

I have been eating Paleo-ish since February and feel great! The "ish" part is I still have some dairy (milk in coffee, occasional ice cream, Greek yogurt every few days). I follow it maybe 85-90%. It is working for me. I think the biggest thing is that I don't eat processed foods anymore. Those foods are literally addictive and unhealthy.

You might find the below link interesting Jaydub. Latest research suggests that it takes about 3 years to reach a new "steady state" after weight loss. One of the reasons why most people who lose weight after taking up a new diet don't usually keep it off. I'm doing something similar; controlling my daily calories to slowly bring my weight down to a healthier level (but i'm not restricting foods). Hard work!

Darren, I'll check thar link out. I've actually been at a steady state for the last three years and nothing I tried seemed to shift the last 5 kg I wanted to shed. I only tried the paleo option because it sounded interesting and was amazed when those stubborn 5 kgs I'd wrestled with vanished in a few weeks. It's not a panacea, but it's taught me a great deal in a short time. And I haven't treated it as a diet, but a way to develop new eating habits.

DId a 12 week challege 2 years ago with fitness and paleo diet, has changed my life. Good detox, didn't stay with it 100%, but have incorporated many of the nutritional lessons into daily life. Good on you!
