thanks for the response.
I did the 30 day Paleo challenge nearly two years ago, lasted about 6- weeks and loved it. Had no more cravings for junk food and felt more energized, needed less sleep. The problem was the only time i was losing weight was when i restricted my carbs. Paleo is pretty restricting so to take away my carbs which to me = fruit meant that i was living off meat and veg. I love my meat and veg but i need to lose about 20 kilos so I would be stuck on meat n veg for a long time to lose that kind of weight. My thoughts were to try something like atkins or south beach, then when i lose the weight switch to paleo. I totally agree that paleo is the best for life.... mm so torn between paleo and a low carb diet..lots to think about

thanks again
