I went from being mainly vegetarian to eating a mainly Paleo diet about 2

I refuse to give up coffee or chocolate, but other than that I eat almost
nothing that requires processing.I am also on paleo, and am wondering if I can eat cheese and
unsweetened chocolate. Any thoughts?
I think that depends on how your body handles it. I have cut my dairy back to
almost nothing because I was having digestive problems/bloating from putting
cream in my coffee, but I do not have any problems with an ounce of two of
cheese or a couple of pats of butter now and then.
We buy hand made cheeses from an old fashioned cheese shop in Connecticut & the
6 hour drive to get it prevents overconsumption🙂
As for chocolate, I like very dark chocolate like the Lindt 85% and I only eat
1-2 squares at a time and not every day. A candy bar usually lasts me about a
month.
If you check the Paleo-list archives, you will see that chocolate is one of
those things about which there is no clear concensus.

do you maintain your weight Robyn?
i
Yes. My weight fluctuates by about 4 pounds depending upon hormones, water,
amount of food & liquid consumed, but it has been pretty stable for about a
year now.
I was actually about 10 pounds lighter last summer, but I got tired of heating
my BF complain that I looked bony so I upped both my food and my exercise to
try to bulk up a little without gaining too much fat. According to the calipers
and a little guesswork, I think that I put on about 3 pounds of muscle and 7
pounds of "other."
