Congrats, rsach312! I am just a few days ahead of you. Check out the November starters thread -- just posted there. Hoping there are more than just a few of us crazy enough to try this right before the holiday season!

Welcome rsach312 and Mimi47.

The first week CAN be a real trial. Hopefully you have a good coach who has given you tips on coping with headaches, muscle aches, hunger and tiredness. If not, hop on the daily thread and you'll get lots of support.

Remember not to overdo it this week, while your body is switching from running on carbs to burning fat.

I'm joining you as well. Today is my first day, again. I've tried off and on for the past few months, but stress has made me go off program. My parents are now in a nursing home together, I got a new hairstyle and I'm ready to get a new body as well! Good luck everyone! Looking forward to this journey together!

But I just had a talk with myself in the mirror and am still craving, but I won't give in lol It's the same feeling as when I quit smoking. It so crazy how much sugar has a hold one me. We can absolutely survive our first day guys!!!

Hang in there, peeps, it really does get easier after the first week. You'll find that the sugar craving disappears once you hit ketosis (normally within 5 days) and your tastebuds will probably change.

Stay strong, you CAN do this.
