Lynn, I have lost 75 pounds and kept it off.  I ate LC for two years and I
have been eating mainly paleo for the past 8.5 years.

In the beginning I ate tons of meat - it filled me up, made me feel good and
I seemed to need it.  I probably ate two pounds or so of meat a day.  Over
time I ate less meat.  Now I listen to my body and try to eat accordingly.
It took years for me to be able to do this, coming from lowfat, low calorie
starvation eating where I ignored my body's cries for nutrition.

Too much fruit in the beginning may cause cravings.  Even now I eat a lot
more vegetables than fruits.

Don't feel like you must eat certain foods at breakfast because our culture
says so.  Eat what makes your body and mind work well.  I usually eat meat
and vegetables for breakfast.  Sometimes I eat fruit instead of veggies.  I
am not crazy about eggs, and I eat them maybe once a week.

PAT - my blood pressure was always normal so paleo did not change it much.

Hope this helps!
