Hey all. Just ordered the ZONE books from amazon. I read the 100 best zone foods last week because I was bored, and I'm really intrigued. I want to lose about 30-50 lbs. I am usually pretty bad at dieting, so I'm hoping that this forum will help to be some support, and that this diet won't be as harsh to me as the others I have tried have been....ie Weight Watchers (the I'm hungry diet) and Atkins (the why can't i eat a salad diet). Looking forward to getting to know you all in that Web-Forum sorta way. -SeraphSong

[color=darkred:ceaab3bbff]Hi, Welcome. I'll bet you'll be pelasantly surprised with the Zone after the other eating plans you've tried. If you have any qns I'll be glad to try to asnwer them. "The Top 100 Zone Foods" is one of my favorite Zone books. It's full of info that can help you to make the most of your Zone meals. My tip is to focus on insulin lowering rather on weight loss, and the pounds will come off easily.[/color:ceaab3bbff]
