Thanks so much for your response, Suni. You have really been committed to the plan and you have seen great results. That is really helpful to hear. It also sounds like you are mainly following the first book at this time. Your response is very encouraging to those just starting out.

I certainly agree with you on the sweet front ...so far it has not been a problem at all but, I know that some dark chocolate will start to sing it's siren song at me some night and it will be tough to resist.....hopefully, by then I will be feeling so great on this plan that it won't matter....thanks again.
