What I haven't yet tried are legumes - I'll give those a shot in January and see how I do.
While I think the Paleo Diet is just another way for people to make money....
I wanted to point out that you may be allergic to coconut. I am horribly allergic to coconut and to soy.
I have to note that the bike hermit would die on the paleo diet and I lost 25 pounds and kept if off for 30 years once I started eating like the bike hermit - which is primarily veggies, fruit and -GASP - Pasta. We eat meat maybe once a week and rarely eat meat when bike touring.
Again, eating a balanced diet of healthy foods goes a long way, now if I can cut down on my beer intake...
