The paleo problem #1: saying no to dairy

Am I convinced of the paleo diet?  Not entirely.  Although I have only been on it for a week, so perhaps I should reserve judgement.

No to dairy?
How can anyone say no to cheese, and butter, and cream, and yoghurt, and ... well, lots of good stuff?

I am a dairy farmer's daughter, so giving up dairy is a difficult one for me.  I love nothing better than to have a wonderful soft goats cheese spread across some freshly baked leavain bread drizzled with a little olive oil and a scattering of herbs... or, as my confession suggested - I love nothing better than a dash of cream in my hot chocolate.

But, I am committed. For the eight week goal, dairy food is no longer part of my life.
