However, I think I'm probably addicted to carbs and could live off a diet of porridge, museli, pasta, brown rice etc.

Anyway!!! Having surfed the net a bit yesterday I have bought the "New High Protein Diet"book as 1) lots of people commented that it was easier to follow than Atkins, b) you are allowed 40g of carbs c) Red wine is permitted. I'm planing on starting Friday as I have a family party Thursday. I would be so greatful for any help/advice/tips/examples of what you eat on an average day etc. I like pretty much everything!

Thanks xx
