Macroguru, some tips I've read on the LI forums about how to increase your calories without really gorgeing, no clue if they fit the paleo diet or not though:
do not use low fat stuff (like for dressing or greek yogurt)
eat avocado
almonds and good dark chocolate make for a pretty nice snack and will jack your calorie count quick

these taken from this post on the LI forums:
Account - Lose It!

Complete list:
Nuts and dark chocolate
Half-and-half (or heavy cream) in your coffee instead of non-fat non-dairy creamer
Whole eggs instead of egg whites
Chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts
Full fat salad dressings instead of the sugar-filled low fat/no fat dressings.
Fry your eggs in butter (or bacon fat).
Avocados on your sandwiches, in your salads, or topping your eggs.

Again, no clue what's acceptable to paleo or not as I have no clue what paleo entails... There are plenty of good people on the LI forums.

As for premium Lose It, I never needed it. Probably should buy it simply to give back for a program that has been and still is such a big help to my losing and mainting my weight loss for the last 18 months. I could also probably use the ability to log the night before since I'm putting my lunch together the evening before cause I'm getting up quite early to run and will do so until next August...


I instead spent money on Smashrun and I'm getting much more from that right now so it was a choice I made.
