Eating more fat worked, until it didn't page

[Paleofan]

Initial loss eating more fat, but then a bit of a gain and nothing more. Anyone else gain eating more fat. Why?

[noodletoy]

what kind of time-frame here? a month? a year?

age/gender/meds?

how much did you lose? gain? how long since you lost?

what do you actually eat? exercise? can't find my crystal ball to answer these questions myself.

[Damiana]

Yeah, primal is not an open invitation to eat all the fat you want. It's very possible to gain. What are you eating?

[Paleofan]

5' 3", 130 lbs. ate low carb primal for 2 years. Increased fat and lowered protein in January. Lost 4 lbs. kept diet the same, gained it back. Not sure why it worked initially, then I just migrated back to the same weight.

Why did you lower your protein?

[eKatherine]

What was your protein before you lowered it, and what did you lower it to? How many calories were you eating before and during the experiment?

[Paleofan]

Anyone have a similar experience?

[eKatherine]

Similar to which part of your experience? Lots of people have ended up eating too much when they eat more fat, because it's easy to eat too much fat.

[Paleofan]

Doesn't seem to be the experience of those on the eat moar fat thread. Just wondering if anyone else tried it and it didn't work.
I do believe that what we eat and how it affects us has individual variations.

I wouldn't be concern with the weight gain unless the weight gain is fat and not muscle. It could be more muscle.
