Red face Hi Everyone

My name is Denise and I am new to SB but NOT new to diets. I am still stuggling to grasp the nuances of this eating plan, so I have some ?. I had been following Phase 1 for about a week and a half when I went out to a restaurant and ordered low carb zuccini lasagna (zuccini instead of noodles) and a salad with house vinegrette. I thought I was being a good girl but the scale stalled right after that. I am thinking too much sugar inthe sauce or dressing? What do you think? Then: yesterday was a day early to startPhase 2 but we were going to a special occation brunch and I had a few things on the rarely list. Now what should I do? I gained one lb.
Thanks in advance.

Denise, welcome to the Beach!
How much have you lost on Phase I, and how much weight do you have to lose?
Are you drinking plenty of water?
Tell us a little more, and we'll advise you.

Default Thanks for offering help

As you can see in my new signature, I lost 7 lbs the first week. I was hopeful for 3 more by the second week, but as I said I stalled after the restaurant food and then on Sunday I started Phase 2 one day early because of going out to brunch. I ate a small cheesecake brownie and a cookie that day and regular bacon and other SB allowed foods. I gained one lb. Now, do I have to go back to Phase 1 because I gained a lb. and cheated a little or what? I have been doing Phase 1.

I have never been a thursty person and I work at a job were I am not allowed bathroom brakes until lunch time. I have been drinking a protien shake with one carb and 2 cups of coffee during work; water and diet root beer at night. Sometime a glass of milk as a afterwork snack.

Denise, if you're not keen on continuing on Phase I for another week, do Phase II for a couple of weeks. But stick to the allowed foods!
You can always go back to Phase I. It sounds like you're about ready to cheat, so I wouldn't even try staying on Phase I right now.
I'm going to copy your post into the regular section so that more people will read this...
