I started using the Tops Exchange food plan. I have a book that explains it all and offers meal suggestions with choices of protein, fat,fruit,starch, and veggies. You get breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and 2 snacks. I chose the 1500 calorie level hoping it will be easier to maintain my goal weight which seems to bounce up and down all the time. The plan sounds easy, but is a little more complicated than just counting carbs. Yesterday, my first day, I got plenty to eat and never felt deprived or craved. I'll give the plan a go for a while and see if I can develop some healthy eating habits. The key to any food plan is logging everything you eat.
