And while I'm on this subject, have any of those on a paleo  diet for
several
years noticed a natural tendency to gain more  weight with the coming of
winter?  Don't animals in the wild put on a "winter coat".   I seem to want
to eat more in anticipation of the cold , and the extra bulk feels ok when
its freezing outside.  Has this been the experience of others?

I have been on this diet for about three weeks and I have lost six pounds
and then turned around and gained most of them back again.  I "feel" slimmer
though and I have LOADS of energy.  I don't think everything I gained back
was fat.  Even so, I am not losing as much as I had hoped.  And I have
noticed an increased appetite.  Is this because I have only been with the
diet for 3 weeks?  If so, will it go away? (Maybe it's the winter issue you
mentioned???)  I am eating meat and eggs for breakfast, anything that's
leftover from yesterday's dinner for lunch and meat, salad and a veggie for
dinner.  Snacks have been mostly nuts, a little fruit and pork rinds.  Am I
doing something wrong?
