[quote=Anonymous]People who do paleo often lose a lot of weight. But this isn't because they are doing paleo, it is because for the first time in their life they are being intentional and conscious of what they eat.

You can achieve similar results if you just cut back on the number of calories you consume and eat cleaner foods.  Cutting back on calories is harder than you think because there are probably 500-1000 calories sneaking into your diet that you aren't really conscious of; a starbucks coffee here, a quick bag of potato chips there, etc.  Those all add up.  Eating cleaner just means eating less processed foods.  This also goes in with cutting back on calories.  Nutritionally dense foods are just better for you and give you better bang for your buck in terms of calories.  100 calories worth of potato chips is worth far less to your body than 100 calories of vegetables or nuts for example.

Sooo, eating cleanly and eating less really go hand in hand.  Just focus on that - there is no need to get ridiculous and go full born paleo[/quote]
