Hi Karen. Fiber suppliments are acceptable, but you'll want to stick with something like flax or psyllium - Metamucil and other brands usually have added sugar (plus added cost!)
There isn't really an average rate of weight loss, because there are too many factors other than diet and exercise that affect your metabolism: medications, dieting history, age, how much weight you actually have to lose, etc.
My only suggestion is read the book and follow it carefully. Don't 'tinker' with the program until you've followed it to the letter for a while, then you'll be able to know how changes will affect you.
If you're interested in a shopping list of sorts, mine is posted on my website. Click the 'www' link at the bottom of this post.
Another book you might be interested in is Protein Power Lifeplan. It has a lot of good background info. It's a really interesting read.
Have a good day!
