Hello,

I am Nikki and I am going to start SB Phase 1 next week. I am eager to meet some fellow SB people and have some fun. I already checked out some of the stickies and there is a ton of great info and some yummy recipes.

Welcome, Nikki!

If you've been poking around the site and the stickies you may have noticed several features. There's a daily thread that is mostly chat (often not much diet chat!) but also a monthly weight loss goal, an exercise thread and all the great recipes.

You didn't mention if this is your first time doing SB or if you are returning after falling off the wagon but please don't hesitate to ask questions, post meals if you want feedback, and generally get to know us. The more the merrier!

Welcome!

Welcome!

We used to have a menu thread every week, but have slacked on that...but please feel free to post on the daily thread your menu, and it's soooo helpful to have others look at it and help you out. Things like helping with that AWFUL headache the first few days, being hungry (you shouldn't be, most of the time), exercise, etc.

This plan works so well if you follow it and are dedicated, but it does take lots of planning. And it is so healthy too! Lexxiss above can tell you all about her history, she's done fabulous, as well as others on here.

Best wishes and hope to see you around!

Thank you for the welcome I did SB back in 2007 and had pretty good results. Subsequently got married/separated and a whole bunch of things happened leading to a 58 lb weight gain. Last round I was able to make it a lifestyle rather than a diet pretty quickly.

Welcome Nichole!!! Nice to see a fellow "down state New Yorker." Life happens but what matters is you are making a conscious effort to take care of yourself. As you know, some days will be easier than others. The chicks here have given me great support over the years. We are all in this together
