> Hi, I'm new around here, but thought I'd forward you this weight loss book/recipe book that is the most sensible one I've ever read: "eat more, weigh less" by dr. dean ornish.
I find this true of the Zone books. I find the science behind them valid.
> Tells you to go veggie, low-no fat, then eat as much of the rest (?) as you want.
My opinion and experience (not to be argumentative) is that low-no fat is bad. Our bodies need fat to run. And we need fat to make us feel satiated and not get bored with our diets.
> P.S. The only downside to this program is that it's very low fat...for me, takes some getting used to. I've felt healthier on it, but for me it's been a big lifestyle change to make.
Maybe you should rethink the fat?
This is a great article, though I only have the link from this creepy doctor's site. http://www.mercola.com/2002/jul/24/carbs1.htm
Good luck to us all. Fighting our food battles is so very hard on the psyche.
