Default Dairy/Cheese Question

Hi! I'm new here - first day trying out the plan.
As I look at the foods list, I see "dairy" is limited to 2 cups/day, but cheese is listed in a seperate category, with no limit listed. Is there a cheese limit? Is cheese not included in the dairy limit?
(I read the book from the library sometime in the past year, but I'm finally ready to try, and this site makes everything so clear - thanks!)

I have a similar question: From what I remember in the book (which I've lost), milk and yogurt are not allowed at all during Phase I. On the list here, it says they are. Am I just remembering incorrectly?

milk and fat free plain yogurt are allowed and even encouraged in phase 1. Check the updated food lists. The newest paperback of the book has the revised list as well.

Cheese is under the protein category, so you do not need to calculate that into your daily dairy allotment.

Though it's not limited, as with anything - too much of it will cause a stall in your weightloss.
