I'm really new to this whole diet.
If I follow the book's sample menu guide thing for each phase, should I be ok?

Welcome to you Ishinn, Yes the book gives you very good examples for meals to follow. As you get more relaxed with following the diet, you can substitute some of your own favorite foods or be experimental and try some new foods that you've never tried before. The important thing is to keep track of your portion sizes and stay away from excess salt, sugar and fats. Let us know how you are doing, and just ask if you have any questions. Bonnie

Poor diet and no exercise results in obesity and health problems, can there be anyone in the western world who is unaware of this fact?

The mother of the six children is certainly overweight and unless she has a very indifferent doctor, she would have been advised on diet.

Rather then remove the children from home, the mother needs to be educated in nutrition and monitored daily. A far more practical, cost efficient way of seeing this problem overcome.

The children shouldn't be removed from their home - it is not in their best interests to suggest this. They can learn along with their mother, what the sensible choices in food are, something which will stand them in good stead for the future and for raising their own families.

I am so confused about this diet, I know it calls for 3 starches, 3 vegetables where does protein fall under? I was looking at the recipe index and I see chicken is that in a different phase?
