How I lost 30 lbs

Carbs bad. Fat good.<p>By far the most compelling argument is made by Gary Taubes: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTUspjZG-wc" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTUspjZG-wc</a><p>This literary changed my life. By changing ONLY what I eat, I've managed to loose weight. Without any effort! I wasn't fat per se, but man, I feel way better now!<p>No need to eat "fresh" (salads, fruits...), but you MUST eat fat!

Also, start boxing. Short of military boot camp there is no more effective, more intensive (and, frankly, more badass) exercise out there. Three times a week for 60-80 minutes is all you need.<p>Think it looks easy? Pick up a 1lb weight in each hand (16oz gloves are standard), make a fist around it, and throw fast punches continuously for three minutes.<p>Finally, take the weekend off paleo. Get a pizza on Friday, have some beers on Saturday. Make a giant bolognese, cover it in parmesan. Enjoy the things mankind discovered between leaving the caves and building cities.

I would be interested in more opinions about Paleo. I'm actually on this diet myself and experiencing similar results (however I've added Crossfit and I think that's been more influential than my diet). My curiosity is about the notion that somehow Vegetarian style diets or even diets with grains is truly damaging. I read the Paleo Solution. I want to know how much is Robb Wolf just spreading his own bias around?

Great post from Paul Rouget (Mozilla) on his experience losing weight. Very interesting read as I have been following similar practices for a few months.

Great work!<p>As an avid crossfitter and Paleo adherent, Paleo does wonderings for losing weight. I have seen people shed 20 pounds over a summer. You don't lose weight by going to the gym, it is through your diet. "Abs are made in the kitchen, not in the gym".

Does anyone know if Stevia is healthy to use with tea?
