1) No, the explanation given was that a samll handful of pasta is the equivalent of four slices of bread, and will leave one hungry. And grains were not encouraged either.
2) The thing is... low-fat, low-carb, and with certain limits on how much protein I can have, basically that leaves water and fibre, with vitamins and minerals dissolved in them. Having eaten such foods, I find them to be rather unsatisfying.
I've been through dozens of diets of similar stripe in my lifetime, and I've hated them all... Which is why I suspect that I'll just take what I want and leave once my appointments are through.
