Welcome to the Beach!!

Is food replacing like a liquid diet?

If you've been seeing such a steady weight loss, Phase I might not take off much, but it's a wonderful healthy way to slowly and steadily lose.

Welcome!

Since you have the book and are reading it you are aware that P1 is two weeks. It's really recommended that you follow those two weeks totally clean-no off plan eating. The reason is that this is the detox phase where the cravings for processed foods and sugar disappear.

If you're thinking of starting this weekend, look at your calendar for the next two weeks and see if it's good timing. Since you've been following a pretty strict plan it should be pretty easy.

Best wishes!

Welcome to the forum! Great idea reading the book before you start. I found it extremely interesting and loved how much sense it made.

Port, I believe a stone is 14 pounds and is used in the U.K.

Thank you all for the welcome, the diet I was on was called Lipotrim where I had to drimk shakes or soups for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Altogether I lost 28 lbs in 4 weeks, I stopped on Monday and have been eating the SBD way since yesterday, I've done this before just needed a bit of support and this forum looks like just the place

HoneyWobBear. (Interesting name.) You will love SBD because it's real food and easily can become part of your lifestyle.
