SP v. Zone
Hi, all.
I have been an Atkins devotee for a long time, but am having trouble getting and staying on it again.
I thought I would try SP because womentowomen recommends it. But, I don't really see much difference between that and the Zone. Other than she limits the exact amount of carbs you can have at each meal (whereas Zone just balances everything), can anyone tell me the difference. I think this would be easier because of the exact limitation, but how can I tell if I'm balanced or not?
For instance, lunch, I may have a turkey burger, green beans, tomato slices and a small portion of brown rice. Is that ok? Can I consider myself balanced or like the Zone, do I have to count everything other than carbs?
Thanks.
