Exactly ... this is what's called individualizing the program for YOU ..  ... You know it's starting to become a way of life (WOL) when you have learned what your body needs and you adapt the program to YOU and YOUR weight loss. Unlike in the beginning, when you feel like you are changing yourSELF to fit the program. And you are changing of course, getting rid of all those processed and refined carbs, and feeding your body real food, real protein, which it's probably been craving.
I like PP too, and have been reading the PPLifeplan book as well. I think their ideas of distributing your carb allotment evenly through the day, and ensuring to eat adequate protein at every meal and snack are good ones, and can be adapted to any other lowcarb plan.
I'm lecturing and ranting. Time to stop now. I must be hungry, and the cats are glaring alternately at me and their empty food bowls...
