Layer 2: The Anatomy

At 450+ pounds, any dietary intervention requires full clinical management. Paleo’s food quality framework is applicable under medical supervision. Physician, registered dietitian, relevant specialists establish every parameter.

Paleo’s distinction from keto at this frame: the starchy tuber and fruit inclusion provides carbohydrate flexibility that supports training performance and glycogen management without the strict low-carbohydrate ceiling. The inflammatory load reduction from eliminating processed grains and added sugar produces meaningful compositional improvement at most archetypes without requiring the metabolic state shift that keto demands. For frames with moderate rather than severe insulin resistance, this distinction makes paleo a more sustainable long-term framework.

Layer 3: The Protocol

The clinical protocol at this frame uses paleo’s food quality principles within parameters established from clinical data. Every specific number comes from the clinical assessment.

The behavioral infrastructure for paleo compliance: five to six core meal options that rotate weekly, prepared in advance, with compliant emergency options available daily. Paleo’s social navigability — grilled protein, vegetables, and tubers are available in most restaurants — makes compliance more durable across real-life conditions than stricter frameworks.

Layer 4: The Psychology

The God frame’s protocol starts with the medical appointment. The courage to make it is the first act.

The identity available through sustained paleo execution at the God frame is the one operating with the food quality standard that the mobility goal actually requires. Not restriction — selection. The framework defines what belongs in the body. The execution determines whether the definition is honored daily.

Layer 5: The Exit

Make the appointment.

The God frame on paleo at thirty days has established the food quality baseline that every subsequent phase of the transformation builds on. The processed inputs that were working against the goal have been absent for a month. The whole food inputs that support it have been consistently present.

That baseline is the foundation. What gets built on it depends on what comes next.
