I've been on Paleo for around 8 months now (did it before, but due to
sorry
and not-so-sorry excuses, I've dropped it on and off).
My original reason to get on paleo eating was weight loss. I have
about 30
pounds to lose (I,m 24 years old, 5'5", 150 pounds on a very small
frame).
Unfortunately, all variations of paleo have been failures so far:
No nuts;
No fruits and no nuts;
Under 50g carbs;
Under 15g carbs;
Low-fat;
High-fat;
Areobics/ no areobics;
Weight training/no weight training;
Low calories;
"Normal" calories;
And every combination of thereof.
I've been following Todd's emails re: weight loss. I seem to be in the
same
situation. Seems nothing I do works. Todd's results on the Anchell
diet
seemed promising though (any updates?)
I used to weigh 175 pounds 5 years ago. I lost 60 pounds on the
infamous
Scarsdale diet. I regained some naturally, but most of my weight
regain is
of my own negligence.
I wonder if paleo's for all. I seem to do rather well on very low-fat
(with
limited carbs, such as Scarsdale). I never got tested for cholesterol
and
such, however.
Also: could race or ancestry play a part in how one thrives on a diet?
I
know the time frame is uncomparable, but still.
