I have been off and on with the paleo lifestyle...I have eaten very clean with no cheating for close to 3 weeks and have gained about 4 pounds. I am pretty frustrated by this. I know it is a healty way to eat...but why the 4 pounds...?? My typical daily intake is below:

B: Eggs ( usually 1 but sometimes 2) with some chicken sausage and veggies

S: I sometimes do not have a snack but if I do it is a small piece of fruit like an apple

L: Chicken and lots of chopped up veggies

D: Big salad, no dressing and some meat...fish, steak.

I will occ have some nut butter with celery for a snack as well.

To me I seem to be eating pretty clean...maybe it is the nut butter's high calorie content. Any insight from those of you that had good results.. And I have been taking measurements and there is no change there either. I am 42 so maybe it is an "old" lady issue I also get a fair amount of exercise in. Sorry for the venting...just frustrated.
