When I started LAWL, I was 216. They had me on purple with lites. I ate POP and lost consistently. I was moved to Gold with at 196. So, it looks to me like you are on the right plan. What is your height? I am 5'8". I've only done one take off, and that wasn't too long ago when I wasn't eating anyway - didn't lose a thing... What do you normally eat? Maybe it's what you're eating together, or something.

More questions than answers, I guess.

I would say you would want your other starch, IMO. I would maybe start pairing your foods a little differently. I saw on here a while back about Wind and Fire (or Logs and Kindling). Wind foods are Veggies, Fruits and Starches, and Fire foods are Proteins, Dairy and Fats. Lites are both Wind and Fire foods. Like I will have an apple and a piece of string cheese, or oatmeal and strawberries. I often times split up my protein. Cottage cheese (1/2 portion) with strawberries, lunch would be 1/2 of a protein of chicken and lettuce with fruit and either ff or lite dressing. . I have found that with a Wind and a Fire, I tend to be satisfied longer, and it does seem to be working for me. Others might have some ideas for you.
