Hi Bobbie-
My dad gave me the new rules original about a year ago and I started the program with the hopes of getting rid of the ten or so pounds I had regained after weight watchers. I too had been stalled arond 1500 cals a day. I'm 5'10", 160 lbs. I started the program and drank the protein shakes and ate and ate more protein and my weight did start to creep up. The last five months or so, I really focused on diet and I am around 7 pounds less than a year ago. I still have to be uncomfortably hungry to lose weight, but that happens for me around 2000 cals per day now instead of 1400 like when I was on Weight Watchers.
Also, my personal experience - when I bought a food scale and started weighing things, I was eating a lot more than I thought I was.
