Paleolithic diet

Hey. This is my first post on this forum. Any of you guys follow a paleolithic diet? I quit eating dairy a while ago and just recently started cutting down on cereals, pasta, potatoes, rice, bread and beans to have a diet consisting solely of vegetables, fruit, eggs and meat. If anyone has experience with a similar diet I'd be glad to hear how it's working out for you and if you're seeing any positive effects from it. If you have any arguments against a paleo diet I'd like to hear those as well. (If you've never heard the word paleolithic before I suggest checking this out: http://www.panix.com/~paleodiet/)

Actually Atkins is sort of a special edition of this diet. I take it none of you can give me any real input on this?

One of the most important aspects of the paleolithic diet is that by eliminating grains, beans and potatoes from your diet you eliminate the intake of potentially harmful toxins/antinutrients existing in these kinds of foods. And by increasing your intake of vegetables, root vegetables and fruit you greatly increase your intake of vitamins. My problem is that I don't recognize any of the positive effects this surge in vitamins and decrease in toxins is supposed to give you. Maybe I'm just too impatient. It seems to me this diet is probably very healthy for you, I just don't know if it's worth eating veggies for $20/day instead of pasta/rice/potatoes for $2/day. Plus it sucks not beeing allowed to just make yourself a sandwich when you feel like it.

Everybody's a comedian around here huh? Well okay then, I'll go back to the jungle and kill a zebra. You go have a donut.

This forum is called "Body Consciousness" and I went here and asked some questions about a diet I've been experementing with recently. It's a well known diet and anyone with an interest in excercising and eating right would have heard about it. None of you had. Upon realizing your ignorance, instead of reading the link i posted or maybe doing a google on "paleolithic diet", you all decide to mock both me and this diet of which you know nothing about. In case your mothers never told you, this is rude and stupid behaviour. But hey, you're Americans, you're middleaged and you're surely overweight; so I guess that's what I should have expected. You suck. PS. Thank you globetrotter for the one serious reply to my post.
