Hey Deb, The Truth About Love is by Pat Love - I highly recommend it as a great supplement to DR/DB.

Nikatnight- I feel your pain.

I ride 14 miles a day on my mountain bike (on the road) along with weight training and still no loss. I actually gained weight over the weekend - and H and I went away to go mountain biking. I'm not talking muscle weight, either, because my pants are tighter. Probably water, but still discouraging.

Yes, I like the South Beach diet very much from a nutritional standpoint. I use the Zone diet, which is fabulous. However, now I am getting back into serious bodybuilding to try to blast my fat. So, I'm upping the protein I'm eating and lowering the fat while still sticking to other principles of the Zone/South Beach (which means I will eat mostly low glycemic index carbs -except around workout time.)

What this means is that I will eat no more than 20% (good) fat, about 35% protein, and 45% carbs. No whites (white bread, white rice, white potato, white sugar, white flour, etc...)

I'm renewing my efforts today. I'll let you all know if it works.



Yes, I have read 5LL. After MB tape and Truth About Love, I'm thinking of asking H to read 5LL. I think it may help us.

OK, this post is long enough, I'll post my weekend separately...
