I weight 139 pounds 19% body fat and work out 3X week. Just started the Paleo diet and wondering how I can gain weight/muscle without losing weight on this diet? How can I be in a net caloric gain on this diet?
Thanks,

Hey, I tried this new supplement from http://zilant.freelightpro.info. They have a risk free trial on right now. What it does, is clean out your pipes, there can be as much as 20 pounds in there, and no amount of diet and working out is about to obliterate it. Give it a go – I did, and lost 17 pounds LOL!!!
As you know, the Paleo diet refers to a diet which our paleolithic ancestors had, consisting of lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, and lean meat, when it was available. Most of our ancestors from tens of thousands of years ago were very lean on this kind of diet. This was the “Old Stone Age,” where people were in the hunter/gatherer stage.
Cordain and Friel, the co-authors of The Paleo Diet for Athletes: A Nutritional Formula for Peak Athletic Performance, emphasize how important BCAAs (branced chain amino acids) are for people, and that the BCAAs are most prevalent in lean meats and fish.
Fruits and vegetables are nutrient dense and non-fat as well.
The Paleo diet is not designed for weight gain, so if that is your goal, I suggest trying something else. Friel and Cordain claim this diet kept our Stone Age ancestors very lean.
