Interesting about SB - especially since the fattier stuff seems to have a lot more "staying power" for me. I esp like cheese and butter - not in massive quantities, mind you, but a little bit with just about every meal. I don't think the lf cheeses would be the same. this has been my big hesitation on SB.
get the CAD book(s) (I actually have the CA Lifespan Program book). I did the Zone years ago, but relied too heavily on soy, got some negative effects (not weight related). I started CAD on my doc's recommendation. It worked well. Soy might be great for some, but it apparently is not one of my better friends. It might be fine for you to include it.
If evenings are your issue, you might find that you can postpone your treats to a single meal, but that you need a real clear plan on how much you are going to eat. I find that if I have the smallish salad as a beginning to my dinner (as the book recommends), that it bulks up the belly a little and makes the rest of the meal seem bigger. Plus, I like to have a small amount of carb with dinner (maybe a small potato, or a roll), and then finish w/ fresh fruit and plain yogurt (full fat).
