That answers my question.
I don't know if I could survive without my 2 morning cups of caffeinated coffee!:Bang:

Thank goodness for this list - very thoughtful !! Thanks!!

Pleae clarify the beans? Is it because they should be limited in quantity? Specifically the phrase Start with...

BEANS/LEGUMES
(Start with 1/3 - 1/2 cup serving)

Yes. On SB we don't count carbs or calories, but there is some portion control involved with the plan.

In the list above you have other oils listed. I read the book and nowhere did I read that you can have any oil other than olive and canola.

Also as far as dairy goes you aren't supposed to have it in phase 1 unless it's a small amount in your coffee and it has to be skim milk (fat free).

Peanut butter is only 1 teas. not 2 Tbls.

Cream cheese is supposed to be dairy free. You aren't supposed to have any jams or jellies sugar free or not.

I'm getting this info on page 126 (hard cover) from a book printed in 2003. Did they change the foods list later?

I'm just a lil confused here.

Yes, there have been changes since the book came out. The list here is the most up to date one available. Some of us on the board have said numerous times that we wish Dr. Agatson would come out with a new revised edition of the book.

I enjoyed reading the book and learning the science behind the diet. I like some of the recipes. But the lists are pretty much out of date. The diet will still work if you follow the lists in the book, but the new lists have lots more variety.

I suggest printing this one out and keeping a hard copy of it handy. You'll also notice that on this list there are more guidelines for portions which weren't in the book.

Here's some info on the difference between good fats and bad fats. http://www.sbdbb.com/showthread.php?t=12&highlight=fats

Thank you...

I move to phase 2 on Tuesday. I now know from reading on here how to add foods back in. It's slow going then isn't it? A food a week. But, this is for the rest of my life and it's worth it.

Tomorrow I start on Phase 2. I went to Super Walmart yesterday and I got some Uncle Sam's cereal. I have never seen that brand of cereal before. Our Walmart just went Super last month. I bought 2 boxes. Gonna just eat that one new starch all week. for breakfast. It will be nice to get to the point where I can eat some cereal and a slice of toast too, and still lose weight. I really hope this works. I'll weigh in tomorrow morning.

** It is an online shopping list **

I printed it out to go to the store but have already lost copies I made. What a relief to be able to sign in an put together my grocery list.

Is everything above MILK/DAIRY considered protein, including eggs and cheese?

Are cheese servings daily limited? Im thinking I read on the board one serving daily.
