For 10 yrs was on an Ornish/Pritikin pescatarian diet, roughly 10% fat, 15-20% protein, 75% carbs.

Went very strict Paleo 6mos ago: no gluten or grains of any kind, no sugars, processed foods, legumes, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds, nightshades, alcohol, caffeine, and fruit limited mostly to berries.

  • 60-75% fat
  • 15-25% protein
  • 5-20% carb

fat comes from pastured meats, wild caught fish [mostly canned salmon, jack mack, sardines, anchovy] offal, coconut oil/milk/cream/butter, etc, red palm oil, olive oil, fish oil, cod liver oil, lots of avocado. I use so much coconut and red palm oil that I buy them in 5 gal tubs.

I'm sure on many days my saturated fat intake is over 50% of calories. Previously it was closer to 0-1%.

  • Sept 2010: 6'0 155 with no effort, hunger, etc
