> how much weight has been lost by the people > following the paleo diet Choti I never tried the atkins or protein power since my reason for going paleo was due to neurological problems and MS symptoms. However I have gone from a size 13 to a size 7 since the end of December. Before getting sick I was a size 3 so I still have a bit to loose. I don't own a scale so I don't know how many pounds Ive lost. I'm sure I will lose the rest in time and I don't worry about it. I'm just very glad to feel healthy again! By the way, I have "cheated" a couple times with potatoes when dinning out and even they make me sick. I feel soooo full after a few bites and very uncomfortable. I don't like feeling anything like I did before so I very rarely eat anything that isn't paleo. I think your cravings will go away in a fairly short period of time if you can hang in there.
