Suzanne Somers' Eat Great, Lose Weight

First, I have to admit that I just skimmed the book. I didn't read any of the "success stories" or the recipes. I just wanted to get the gist of what Suzanne and her endocrinologist think you should do to lose weight. And I'm going to share it here with you!

1. Eliminate all funky foods.
2. Eat fruits alone, on an empty stomach.
3. Eat proteins/fats with veggies.
4. Eat carbos with veggies and no fat.
5. Keep proteins/fats separate from carbos.

So it's low carb, but it's also about food combining. And funky foods include some surprises, like avocados, nuts, and bananas, in addition to the obvious alcohol, potatoes, and white flour.

I'm going to try it this week and see what happens. Based on comments on internet diet sites, some people lose 5 or more pounds the first few weeks of this diet (what the hell are they eating before the diet?). I'm going to weigh myself Friday and see if I've lost anything. I'll let you know.
