Gorillas are mostly vegetarian?

I've heard that before.  I guess being mostly vegetarian isn't so healthy.

The answer to your question is 'eat more fat'.

Stop counting calories. If you are eating Paleo, there is usually no need.

If you are having weight loss issues, it'd be a good idea to start posting a detailed food journal, then everyone can help.

'Anecdotal Evidence' is an oxymoron.

Gorillas are fully vegetarian, chimps eat some meat occasionally.
Any idiot can get on a treadmill and watch TV and then take great pride in the fact they've exercised.
