Hi Patriciar
I could be way off here, but are you living in Asia by any chance? Your profile doesn't say where you are located.
Something about your tone and the way you said "no rice" in answer to the question "diet plan" made me think that you might be in Asia. Apologies if you're actually in Canada or something, and ignore the rest of the post!
Anyway if by any chance you are in Asia, I can only echo what people have said before - it really is vital to read the book, especially here. Low carbing is not easy here because many of the low-carb foods that you get in the US, for example, are not available.
So you really need to be very knowledgeable about the subject so that you can make the best choices possible in the circumstances you find yourself in.
The other thing I was a little bit worried about was your weight statistics. A goal weight of 112 lbs at a height of 5 ft 4? Isn't that a bit on the low side? According to the weight chart I have, the lowest healthy weight for your height should be about 114 lbs even if you have a very small frame.
To be honest if you only weigh 132 lbs now (as per your profile) you are not technically overweight to start with either! Maybe just a bit of toning up at the gym is required instead of dieting?
Hope things go okay for you from here on!
