Hi konny

Are you following the stages of this diet? If so, stage 1 may not see a great deal of weight loss (though I lost 10lbs on it), it's generally stage 2 that has the greatest impact on weight loss.

A mix of strength training and cardio is best for weight loss, with an emphasis on bodyweight exercises and natural movement if possible. Squats, lunges, push ups, sit ups are all excellent to start off with and will really work your cardiovascular system as well.

Good luck!

I think Kallis is either a bot ot a troll.

Fruit juices are not Paleo, most have added sugar. Just stick with real fruit. You'll get the fiber missing in juices and I think it a volume issue. Nobody will sit down and eat 4 oranges but that's about what's in a large OJ.

one thing i would like to add, im new myself so it might have already been said but the caveman rarely came across food easily he either had to walk miles forraging or running in chase of game but he had to work for every meal so with that principal in mind if you in turn walk or run to earn every meal you will burn all calories you take in.like walking to the store every day to buy your grocerys in small amounts and carry them home, like you had forraged them.you are saving gas exercising and collecting food all in one.

4 oranges at a time would fall into the too much area
