No problem Chic!
1) Basically what you need to do is go to Page 83 of the book and the list of 'authorized foods' is there. Unfortunately granola bars aren't authorized. (except on Free Day of course when anything goes!). Next time you're at L&S, check the Cooking Library for some good recipes - most (if not all) are perfect for BFL.
2) You don't need to take any supplements at all (see the 'sticky' at the top of this forum). I'd recommend a multivitamin though. EFAs (essential fatty acids) such as Udo's Choice or flaxseed oil are excellent as well.
Shopping list - just copy the Eating for Life on Page 83...find the foods you enjoy in each column...and go shopping. I'd also recommend checking out Tall Jen's Daily Menu Thread on the L&S Main Board and PLEASE don't be afraid to ask questions there - or just browse the threads - most likely your question has already been answered. TJ is a sweetheart and is more than willing to help with your menu dilemmas! Not to mention - just READING the menu thread can give you some great meal ideas!
Matter of fact here's the link to today's menu thread:
