[Atlas Sneezed]

I guess everybody's not on Phase I.

---

Phase I and the following couple months dropped 30 pounds for me. Spiked my cholesterol because I ate irresponsibly fatty foods, which I stopped, and am now stable and healthy, but eating very little if any potatoes, pasta, white bread, and sweetened foods.

I adore short grain (calrose/sushi-type) brown rice, when properly steamed.

I need to drop a couple more pounds before moving to Phase II. Mmmmm.....rice and beans. And I can go back to buying whole chickens instead of just skinless chicken breast. It's cheaper by the pound and ya get a carcass for making good homemade chicken broth.

I really needed to break a sugar habit.
