Danille, Welcome!
I think you will love the freedom of SBD! There is so little to keep track of, although many people do, using a free program at
www.fitday.com. Personally, that's just one more thing I have to worry about in my long days, so I just keep track of the few things that are regulated: number of starches (this varies per person on Phase 2), number of fruit (again, varies per person on Phase 2), whether I have had my serving of nuts, and how many cals of sweets I have had. I have figured out how many calories are in my favorite treats and how I can combine them to make the 75 cals we are allowed. Right now, I am on a Fudgsicle after dinner (40 cals) and a creamsicle (25 cals) or jell-o (10 cals) with a serving of Cool Whip Free (15 cals). I have another 10 to play with for things like SF gum or another jell-o, plain. Otherwise, I just make sure I am eating a serving size of my starch, fruit and cheese, and I am good!
Hope you enjoy this WOE as much as I do! Welcome to the Beach!
