Luckylady - everyone has a beginning - and finding the best way to make this particular eating plan work for your system will be a little bit of trial and error - but please don't give up on yourself! There is so much support and help from the folks in boot camp available to you - and some basic guidelines that will help you tweek this thing to see good results. I am so glad you are physically starting to feel better - that is great motivation to keep you going - while you investigate the how to's and why's of how to make changes that will help you succeed. Come to the forum pages and read, read, read...and then keep asking questions while you work at this. It's really good that you are tracking all of your food - that's a wonderful tool to help you in the coming days to know how to make adjustments. We're all here for you...as long as you are on the team, we won't let you go down without a fight! 

We don't want to lose anyone to going back to their old ways. Just look at all the drop-outs from the group, and see where they're at. They are on a spinning vortex of losing, gaining, losing, gaining, and then quitting! Where did quitting get them and where will quitting get you? If I had quit, where would I be? Certainly not 82 lbs lighter in 7 months. I am with Christine on not being so anal about reaching exact percentages, I don't use that rule, but I am also a FIRM believer that those who do not count Total Carbs, are looking for a way to cheat, by using the term Net Carbs...I dare ask how many have lost weight LONG TERM that way, and of the 4% who have, how many have kept it off?
