    Hi I'm Stella from County Durham, UK. I'm a wife, mother, nutritionist, training facility co-owner, strength coach and  grunge music enthusiast. For my job I have experimented with every diet under the sun and they all work for a bit but I always come back to CBL. It's the most maintainable diet on the planet and the most geeky. Currently trying CNS after getting fat on a strict 12 week paleo diet... yes the paleo diet maybe clean but damn there's a lot of calories in a vegan cheesecake!  ;D  I gained 4% bf on a paleo diet after realising there were no sabre tooth tigers to chase me to burn it off! CNS seemed like a good choice after paleo considering I don't ever want to see a sweet poatato ever again! On a serious note, I want to see if I can maintain my muscle and drop the bf with CNS. Looking forward to the next 12 weeks  🙂

    Welcome Stella,Yeah, there many varied versions of Paleo out there can really get a person in trouble.  The version I have followed never condoned eating sweet treats like that just for that reason.  This will work. 🙂

    This is exactly what I was thinking.  I find it sad that "today's" Paleo is NOT what it was intended to be.  A vegan cheesecake?  I'm sorry, but I have read 8-10 Paleo books in the past 2 years or so, and that was not in any of them.  🙁  Robb Wolf, Mark Sisson, Jason Seib, Sarah Fragoso, Dallas and Melissa Hartwig -- these folks will not steer you wrong.Anyway, [/end rant].  Welcome!  😀

    Thank you for the warm welcome guys. Yes totally agree with your comments… the 21st century paleo diet has missed the point. They say its clean… I said eating a boat load of fat AND slow carbs AND protein will get me fat. I just went out to prove it and became a heifer in the process… I was right!  ;D
