There have been some really great results on the Paleo Challenge so far, and it has only been three weeks! Some people have lost between 5-10lbs already, and most importantly they are feeling good! I don’t know if weight loss was my goal coming into this challenge, but I am up nearly 3lbs since the weigh in. I was following a Paleo-like diet prior to this challenge, but now I’ve cut out a lot more carbs and replaced them with enormous amounts of fat. I estimate that I might be eating over 200 grams of fat per day. I am also eating much larger portions of protein. All in all I am probably taking in more calories than before. I think I am going to cut back on the amount of fat I am ingesting and add some fruit. In addition I am going to try and watch my portion size over the next two weeks. I’ll report back at the end of the challenge.
