I have decided to give it another week and if nothing changes, start looking at some other diets. | You may want to post your menu in the "Review My Menu" forum for us to take a look. If you do so, don't forget to mention quantities for every food. It would also be useful to know how much water you are drinking and whether you are exercising.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
