Hi Ang,
Welcome to our forum. Your diet sounds like Weight Watchers, or a similar low-fat, low-cal diet, which is the general mainstream diet right now.
Most of us here do not follow that diet, and chose alternative low-carb plans, such Atkins, Protein Power, CKD, the Zone, CAD-CALP and others.
Both approaches belong to totally different mentalities/lifestyle. It's hard for us to recommend which one to chose, but we support people once they decide which plan they follow. If you chose a low-fat plan, we can offer a few links to low-fat support groups that may be able to offer advice. If you want to consider low-carb diets, check your local library for one of the plans available (some books are listed in our books section), and we'll be able to help with any questions you may have.
Wa'il
