Hello everyone,
I just wanted to join in and say that my sister and I just started on the diet today. I'm a little bit apprehensive cause I don't know what to expect, all I know is that I am tired of trying a diet and failing because of the strictness of it. I am 29 and have been on countless diets in the past, unfortunately, the weight would come off, but then would come back with a vengence. I am the heaviest I have ever been now, and I need something that will help me become healthy. So, if you guys have any suggestions, any words of wisdom, infact, any sort of success stories you would like to share, that would be great! I need all the encouragement I can get....
welcome to the beach kathy!!! make sure you check out the FAQ and recipe sections there is a ton of info in there. make yourself at home and jump right in with any questions you have. there is an amazing amount of support here at the beach!! good luck.
I am pretty new myself and just in the second week of SBD. I haven't found that this diet makes me crave more food the way weight watchers did. I am looking at it as a plan for life to lose weight, keep my heart healthy and prevent diabetes.
Jodi is right: there is LOTS of support here. We are all in this together!
Hi Kathy!
I'm on day two without any expectations or hopes at this point. But physically I feel very good, and I don't have the cravings I normally get on starchy diets.
Hey Kathy, I'm new too. I'm a SBD success and well dropout, but I know it works. In October I was down 17#, felt soooo good about myself, was never hungry or felt deprived. Had a bad showing over the holidays, alot of stress at home, and I'm back on board. I logged on, registered here, was inspired and took a 4 mile hike because I knew I wasn't alone today. I think it'll be a great tool. Good luck! *Sweetie*
