Don't try to keep up with DH...Men loose much faster than women...It could discourage you. Look at it as your competition with yourself...you will succeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Kye
I have to keep reminding myself b/c DH has lost as of this am 11.5 pounds I'm proud of him and I have my 5 and my triumph over crap food this am.
can we have unsweetened cocoa powder or choc syrup sweetened with splenda on Ph1
Also this is going to sound so dumb but
What constitutes a serving of cheese?
Good morning what did you eat when you had cravings?
I feel pretty good today , starting 3rd day but I woke up in the middle of the night hungry , went to frig to drink milk then went back to sleep, I need to double my water, I live in AZ and I feel water logged, I went shopping and bought lots of veggies, when I had craving last night ate some baby carrots, of course Roxy (my wiener dog) ate half of them I remembered reading on boards to eat lots of veggies so that is what I did, suggestions really do help meeting with trainer tonight to get workout program, and workout, hope I can walk tomorrow
I'm sort of on Pre-Phase 1... I've been careful with my food choices, but I have a lot of bad food in my house still and I haven't gotten to the store yet to stock up on Phase 1 foods. Even my modified Pre-phase 1 diet has helped me lose some ounces...
Today marks my halfway point in P1 and I've lost 7 lbs. I cheated and looked at my weight the past few days so I know I've been floating around this one number, but 7 lbs in a week is pretty remarkable. I've been doing walking and pilates and I can already notice a difference in my clothes...as in...I can breathe in them! I'm serious...my work pants were so tight on my waist before they gave me a bruise!
I was having some nausea yesterday and the day before, but I'm feeling better today. I don't know if this is SBD related or not. I can't tell you how much I'm loving not having blood sugar problems anymore. Before when I was hungry I would start shaking, feel nauseated...like I might faint, I've had none of that since I started SBD. So this is what you are supposed to feel like when you are hungry...just a rumbly tummy. Even if I didn't lose another pound (but let's hope I lose more), I'm just happy I feel healthy.
I'm back again! I'm fighting some serious cravings! I started Monday and did really well until Thursday night when I cooked fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and a broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots medley. UGH!! I lost all will power. Ofcourse I hadn't planned my dinner, I was getting hungry and smelling that chicken frying didn't help much! It seems like I stay on ph1 forever because I end up cheating and have to start over! Please send me lots of will power vibes and support.......I sure do need it right now! Thanks! Good luck everyone!
How is everyone doing? I tried adding some stuff back to make it part 1.5 and didnt lose anything. I guess I either need to start working out or go back to part 1 again for a little while =(
Well last week was 1.5 and I felt sick all week so I didnt work out much but I did a little. Today I am going back to phase 1 for a week and working out and then next week I am going to slowly add some fruits back and hopefully that will not cause me to gain
