Hello,
My gf and I started Paleo about 3-4 weeks ago. We have noticed some good changes. She has lost 10lbs, I have lost about 5lbs.
We both have a tremendous amount of extra energy. We have been able to concentrate more. Overall we feel great.
I wanted to know what other benefits other people have had. Since we only been doing it for so little I wanted to get an idea of what to expect.
Please let me know how long you been doing it and what you noticed changed. Thank you all! Have a healthy day.

wow, where to start? paleo has changed mine and my husbands lives so much. We have been doing paleo since November 2012.
1. My husbands "IBS" has been cured. My husband had severe stomach issues for the past 3 years. after 2 months of paleo he is now normal!!!
2. My stomach issues are also cured. I suffered from severe bloating, gas and severe pain in lower abdomen. I had these symptoms about 5 times a week before. Now, I have gas maybe once a week (maybe!) and no pain in abdomen or bloating at all.
3. PMS: OMG, my PMS is so less severe. the bloating, fatigue, gas, cravings and pain are so minimal. I have not taken any medication for cramps, pms related stuff since December (I used to take tons of midol, ibuprophen,etc)
4. I have lost over 40lbs!!! this is all due to my diet.... I was exercising 4 times a week for several hours with no results before paleo. now I just do about 30 minutes a day on average. take a day off a week usually.
5. clear mind
6. just feel so much better. I cannot even describe it fully
7. my ezcema is completely cleared up
8. less blemishes
9. very little cravings
10. i have more color in my skin
11. I look healthier (skin color, thinner, etc)
12. I enjoy life much more! it is no longer revolved around food!
I do have some cons: (FOR FEMALES EYES. Men-you probably dont want to know the info below) LOL <cant say I didnt warn you>
1. My period isnt consistent. I sometimes have two periods a month??? i also have heavier bleeding
2. I have had to buy a whole new wardrobe!
I think thats the majority!
