However, I generally can't stand diets that make certain foods "bad". That's why I lean towards Weight Watchers - where you can basically have anything, in moderation.

Does SBD eliminate permanently any of the following foods (I am okay with a week or so of cutting them out, but not for forever):

Wine
Oatmeal
Coffee ( )
Soy milk
Pasta (whole wheat or not)
Wheat bread
Cereals (not lucky charms, but things like Shredded wheat, Kashi, etc.)
Carrots
Potatoes
Nuts

These are things I would not choose to live without (again, in moderation. well, except for coffee) and seem like targets in a lot of diets.

Thanks.
None of those things are permanently eliminated. Potatoes are questionable and I seldom eat them now. Maybe french fries every week or 2. If you check out the stickies in the forum url I posted earlier, there are food lists.
