No beans: due to lectins and "anti-nutrients." Google if you want the long story. Basically, they aren't good for you. However, if you use traditional preparation methods (soaking cycles, sprouting, etc) then they are sort of neutral. Pretty controversial even amongst ancestral health folks.

My household has been essentially Paleo for two years, and it's not hard to follow at all. We don't lose weight, cause we don't need to.

IMO, most people who lose weight on paleo do so because they have trouble eating as many calories as they previously did (food tends to be more satiating with less calories).

We've seen a ton of benefits, from strength, recovery, sleep, stress, immunity, etc.

The biggest difference for me: I used to be the guy who HAD to have healthy snacks through the day, or I'd get ravenous and irritable. Now, I eat a large paleo meal with a bunch of protein, fat, and veggies, and I'm good for most of the day.
