Hi there! Day 2 of paleo down! I feel bloated and have a nasty taste in my mouth! Other than that I have not had any cravings. I am savcing my cheat date for Thanksgiving. I have decided to not start a work out regime (sp) for about two weeks into the Paleo. I think I would become discouraged if I am unable to work out because I am to lethargic. I do have one question though, I have PCOS and I was told that completely restricting all carbs was a bad idea. Do you have any advice?

Veronica – Great job so far! Keep it up. I think restricting all carbs is a bad idea for anyone unless you’re purposefully trying to get into ketosis, in which case you need to monitor your fat and protein intake. I think you should just eat lots of veggies, some fruits, some starchy veggies (maybe lots of them depending on how much you’re working out), and plenty of meat and fats. You’ll still lose weight because that’s still low carb compared to a normal diet. Good luck to you!

Is the 21 day cleanse a good idea if a person is nursing/breast feeding a baby. My daughter is 9 mos. old & eating some foods, but would a cleanse not be a good idea during this time?

Karen – If you’re just starting Paleo, I’d suggest doing the Quickstart Guide instead. The cleanse is very restrictive and is meant for people who’ve been doing Paleo for a while and they’re not getting the results they want because of food sensitivities to foods on the normal Paleo diet. I’d hate to see you breast feeding and struggling with a super restrictive diet at the same time. Also, no matter what diet you’re doing, make sure you get enough carbs and calories to feed you and your baby.
