<p>Hi folks. I've moved over to a mainly Paleo diet quite recently (where possible), I did like cream or milk in my coffee (mainly decaff) and am not happy with taking it just black. So I have been using Soya milk since last December. I get that under a Paleo regime that dairy / milk is out. But now this whole soya / legume deal has me mildly worried since I've had chance to research it all (and listened to so many Rob Wolf / Sissons / Abel James Podcasts), Therefore I'm considering ditching the soya milk too, but, what to have instead? I want to stay on a low carb diet (having lost 55lbs and looking and feeling great as a result), so staying low carb is much more important to me than aiming for a "strictly" 100% Paleo diet. So, what are my realistic substitutions for milk? I live in the UK and our dairy cows / herds are nearly all grass fed BTW. Is cows milk less of an issue compared to soya? I've never suffered with intolerance to any foodstuff, but would like to give my body the best option. </p> <p>cheers</p> <p>Karlos</p>

<p>personally I would go with 25g for 7 days. In my case I kept as low as possible (20g max) and was there within 5 days. First 3 days are hell to be brutally honest, so just bear with it and think of the positives. I started on a Wednesday evening, by the following Monday morning I felt awesome, seriously. Also, make sure you get plenty of Omega-3 (supplements) and a Vitamin D supp. I went with a good quality multi-vitamin supplement too, not fully Paleo, but your brain needs sugars and a low-carb diet can disrupt this balance long term. My wife and I have been on a low carb and 90% Paleo diet since 7th December 2011, so far we've each both lost in the region of 55lbs each !<br> good luck ...... </p>
