I think you just received some good advice. Read the diet book of your choice cover to cover, commit to it and then follow it. Some folks are metabollically resistant and have a tough time losing weight. I read that low carb cookbook author Nancy Moshier (she was discussed in Atkins book Atkins for Life), was metabolically resistant and lost very slowly with several plateaus. Yet she eventually lost over 100 pounds!

You can do it, but you won't do it if you keep switching diet plans and eating high carb in between. Believe me, I'm not picking on you, 'cause I've been there, done that, and it doesn't work!

You can do it!
