Wow thanks upupandaway,

I'm not sure how keen she is to get onto this but she seems enthusiastic atleast. So Fruit is ok to eat then? I mean I already have to cut out certain fruits like Apples and mango, but generally eat bananas and berries. Are there fruits that you aren't supposed to eat on Paleo?

That depends on what your goals are. If you're just transitioning over from eating a poor diet, then no. If you're trying to lose weight, then yes. The more sugary or carby fruits you'll want to avoid. You learn which fruits are carby or more sugary by trial and error. Look up nutrient content on places like calorie king, spark people, or fit day.

Oooo, I just ran across this one, I kind of like it.

Welcome.

Thanks Lissie.

Yeah my main aim really is to loose weight. I've been 8st my whole life then went up to 11.5 when i found out i had Polycystic Ovaries, madness. I'm about 10.5-11 now and way above what i should be. Want to shed this fat, be lean and fit again and toned.

I eat pretty healthy at the moment, apart from that time of the month when i get mega cravings!

Is there actually a list somewhere of fruits and veg to avoid when trying to loose weight? Thanks so much for helping with all the questions guys. I'm SO used to completely illiminating things that eating things occasionally might be hard lol but then if i'm doing the 21 day thing from mark's book then hopefully that will tell me more.
