It's not so bad, but you're right about the milk duds (Hershey's kisses for me!). I'm a woman. All these diets seem to be for men. I'm PMS-ing right now, and chocolate is what soothes the savage breast pain.
I have been doing Weight Watchers for a long time. I find it much easier to follow, and, if you eliminate bread and pasta, cut down on rice and potatoes, and focus on fruits, veggies, and proteins, you wind up losing plenty of weight very fast.
I was looking to the Zone to stop the cravings, though. I'm going to stick with it for a few weeks and see what happens. I feel like I'm eating more than I'm allowed with Weight Watchers, so we'll see what happens.
Good luck with all the other stuff you have to face. I find, however, that exibiting control in one area when I'm having trouble in another sometimes helps. So if I don't have control over my relationships, I feel better when I control my food. I also am a happy eater, meaning I eat when life is comfortable.
Good luck to us all.
