monique and kelsie, i had low fat down pat. i was eating low fat for 10 years and gained 20lb trying to lose weight! my diet consisted of beans, legumes, pasta, veg, and the occasional fish or poultry. oh i forgot lots and lots of really fine bread! turning a complete 180 is difficult at first. i hardly ever miss my lowfat ways. what i miss the most are lentils. i loved lentils!! when i finally hit maintenance, i'll eat them again occasionally. they are very high in fibre, so i'll subtract that then! oops! i kind of wandered off topic! the point i was trying to make is that your body will adapt so easily to this new way of eating (WOE). you'll find it easier and easier to make lowcarb choices. make sure that you have a good carb counter handy. try and buy "corrine netzer's complete book of food counts, 5th edition". i refer to it all the time.
