Hi Kathy I'm also new here, and am beginning the SB way of life again. I currently weigh around 250lbs, and at my highest was near 300.

I've found that I need to be serious about this, and to look at it as a chance to enjoy all the wonderful healthy foods that are out there instead of all the processed junk that just weighs me down (and not just on the scale) and makes me feel icky.

This weekend is my planning and cooking weekend so I can begin phase 1 on either Monday or Tuesday. I'll also be working on walking regularly to get back into exercising.

Okay! Did my two weeks of Phase 1 and was AMAZED that cravings were non-existent. I lost my 12 pounds and started Phase 2 today. It was EASY to eat only one serving of Whole-Grain Carb because I picked up whole-wheat tortillas with 7 grams of fiber. Tried very hard to make a breakfast burrito out of it, but it flaked and cracked. We thought it tasted very much like cardboard.

Now the strawberry was another story. Oooh ... oooh, was it good. So here's my question. Is the weight I lost going to slow to nada now. I'm eating MANY vegetables ... seriously trying to keep them up with the lean protien.

Any admonitions or things to look out for? I really want to keep up this good thing that is started.
