I also hear that if you incorporate milk and/or dairy products, all low-fat or fat-free, of course, the calcium helps you lose weight too. I can't really stomach mil, but I have been eating low-fat cheeses like, mozzerella, string cheese, provolone, and 2% cottage cheese alot. And I have also replaced cheese slices with fat-free cheese slices. Just something to chew on. No pun intended. lol
