So yesterday I saw this diet on Tyra and I decided to give it a go! I went this morning and bought the book and from the list did some grocery shopping. I think that I can do this! I have tried other things before (ww and sb) but i am hoping this this will be different!

I look foward to getting to know all of you!

Elizabeth,

Fat smash is a great plan and this is a wonderful, supportive group of ladies. Good luck and happy smashing!

Great thanks!!!

I too will be starting FS tomorrow. Myself along with about 10 people in my close knit group have decided to give this a try. Some of the 10 have done this a few times. And have had success, I am very hopeful that this too will work for me. I have been peeking at this site for over a week and have gotten some good advise and recipes. Last night I made the Veggie chili and banana cookies. Both of them were so delicious I could not believe that they were "Diet Food".
I am ready take my life back.

Happy Halloween & Thank you all. I look forward to SMASHING
Currently I am 160 and my goal is 125. I am 5' 1" almost 5' 2"

Welcome Elizabeth & Chaidog! You will love it, especially on detox when the lbs start falling off. Today is my last day of detox so I am hoping my morning weigh in tomorrow will show me good things! I have already lost, but the question is, exactly how much! I will let you know and let us know if we can you out! Lem

Thanks so much everyone! I am excited to see how my progress is at the end of 10 days. I KNOW i can't not get on the scale (i have the habit of getting on EVERY morning) so we shall see Thanks ladies!

Welcome newbies!! Good luck with the diet, please post as often as you can to let us know how you like it

Thanks so much Suzanne ! Things this far are going well! I just made my own version on the chili i saw here on the board and it was SO good! I was worried about the meatless beef, but it was good!

Welcome, Elizabeth. I was also on WW but ended up being hungry all the time when I had to start lowering my points. On Core, I really couldn't always tell when I was full & although I lost weight the 1st week I kept gaining & losing those same lbs. until I gave up.

I love the phases of FS & the ability to add foods instead of taking away points. I am never hungry on this plan & sometimes have to remind myself to eat! I also like that you can always go back to detox or any lower phase if you get off track. It offers everything I've been looking for in a diet plan for life.

Chaidog, it's great to have a group doing it together. Talking about support!

Elizabeth and Chaidog~ to you both!! Fat Smash works! This is a great group for support and motivation.

I too have tried WW and SB. I find this a bit easier. Still hard as I am a serial binger, but it's helped me with portion size and eating better on a whole!

Good luck!

Well its day 4. Things are going well I did cheat once... on the second day. It was our last game of the season (I coach cheerleading) and I had to sit outside for 4 1/2 hours and it was below freezing!!! So I had hot chocolate Its not as bad as it could be! Every game, before FS, I used to have hot chocolate and a peice of pizza...oh how I love pizza.... so it could be worse
