Thanks Zuleika--Appreciate you response--Daughter has the book and has left it here. Funny thing though--am afraid to start another one at this point since I know what I should do on Atkins--Also have thought of Protine Power as well.

One other thing--I am a coffee and cream drinker-specially in the morning--you said that can cause stalls in weight loss. Is it the coffee or the cream??

Anway--Going to re-think all of this. Thanks--Alice/Aleka
