It is recommended and it the common thread on the forums. That way we are all on the same page, no pun intended.F/5'8"

You can follow it if you want, but just remember you might have dificulty getting a good answer about the foods list and counting the carbs, etc. because there aren't many people here who have that book.~Megs~

Re: can I follow the 1997 book
I have the old book too, 1999 that has a few updates from when it was originally printed in 1992. I read the old book for general info and i look on here for the info on the OWL rungs because he doesnt have them in the old book. I dont think you have to buy the 2002 edition (I am planning on buying it) but it probably is updated with some more useful info.25/F

Re: can I follow the 1997 book
I lost my weight using the 1999 edition, but I now have the 2002 edition and it explains OWL and pre-maintenance much better. Induction is not much different, but the later phases are covered much better.
I do like having the older books, because the newer ones leave out some important information. I now have all the books from 1992 up. If your library has Friends of the Library book sales, you can usually get them for less than a buck.People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

Check out your used bookstore/Sally Ann. I found 3 copies of the 2002 DANDR for 99 cents each.36/F 5'2

Re: can I follow the 1997 book
I buy them from charity shops (usually 3 for a pound or even 50p) so I can hand them to anyone interested in my WOE. So if you have any thrift shops or similar nearby they might have a copy.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
