Any advice or help would be amazing...Think I should make the switch?

Hi and Welcome!
Only you can decide to make a switch. Have you read the South Beach Diet book yet?
South Beach phase I will give you beans( 2 servings daily, 1/3-1/2 cup is s erving, nuts( 1 oz per day), cheese( keep it small up to 2 ozs daily), dairy( 2 cups daily including cheese), veggies-fairly unlimited, protein-start small ie 3-4 ozs per meal and a sweet treat daily(100 calories a day).....but all are tightly portion controlled.
See our food lists and meal plan guides in the weighin thread. Between those 2 tools, you can easily follow the plan.
