food

the diet i am choosing for myself is a combo::
~i am applying the principals from "Body for Life" by Bill Phillips (great book & web-site). this means a series of 6 small meals/snacks throughout the day. high protien and low carb, good carbs always in combination with a protien. this will be the way of life for me 6 days a week, and on the 7th day i take a break and eat some "no-no's". i get it all out of my system.
~i'm not spending much time on this one...but-i'm trying to keep my calorie intake at 1300-1500 calories. this is new for me...still unsure about this. i've used points (24 weight watcher points) for sooo long. any feed back on this would be helpful.
~i'm also following the Figure 8 system by Arbonne-drinking their protein shakes (2 pts) and fiber shakes (0 pts) (or combining the two), taking their supplement (when i can remember), and eating the wieght loss chews (tastes like candy!). i drink the shakes for breakfast or snacks, usually 1-2 a day. i use the chews when needed, ususally a snack or "dessert". the whole system fints into my "body for life". it's all high protien and low carb, and it doesn't use artificial sweetners.
