My cardiac rehab program said there's no need to do something this drastic or possibly harmful. Told me to cut down on simple carbs ("white" flour, potatos, etc.), substitute whole grains. Have been getting neat stuff from Trader Joe's like whole grain breads and pita, blueberry bran muffins, whole wheat pasta, Optimum cereal with whole wheat, soy, and flax,etc.
Feel good, losing weight (with moderate exercise), keeps the lower tummy working properly, good for cholesterol. Have discovered sweet potatoes - yummy baked sweet potatoe "fries".
