Spang!!!! nice to see ya,
I really enjoy SPII, even more than Montignac - Its all good whole unprocessed foods and the book really explains a lot about the role hormones like adrenalin and cortisol have in failure to lose weight and how we are to go about restoring our hormones to a healthy balance. Very easy plan to follow, every meal and snack is to contain protein, carbs, veg and fat - she lays out basic guidelines for fruits and starchy carbs start with the low GI ones and slowly increase as your adrenal glands and insulence sensitivity improve. Great cookbook too.
I've lost about 5 lbs but must admit it wasn't really on SPII, my son was graduating from University last month and I went on what I called "Desperation Diet" for a couple of weeks. Not very healthy, but hey vanity wins out at times.
I think you'll see better results increasing the exercise, I have lost a lot of inches (about 18 ) even before I lost pounds, I had been doing BFL type exercise, slipped a bit once the hot weather started, MUST get back to it.
I'll probably drop in to check on Montignacers from time to time - sad to see he hasn't improved his site any.
