Welcome and good luck on your journey!!

Welcome

CJ!

Hiya CJ! Welcome! I just finished my first week on Phase 1 and I'd have to say that it was pretty successful. I physically feel so much better ~ energetic, happier... empowered. (Of course, the first few days weren't so enjoyable as the caffeine/sugar/carb addiction was wearing off!) This is a great place to keep motivated and get support -- you'll love it!

I am trying to just limit my caffeine intake, I dont think I can wack it out completely. I am cherry coke zero junkie - its pretty bad. I am going to drink 8 oz of water for every 8 oz of caffeine...we will see how that works....

thanks everyone for the words of encouragement - i should be posting on here plenty as i tend to be a forums addict...

Post away, CJ! We're happy to have you joining us.

Glad to have you with us! Just work on drinking a little less Coke each day and before you know it, you'll be down to the 1-2 servings a day that Dr. A recommends. Caffeine really messes with your insulin and the sugar substitutes may be making you crave, too, so that change may really make a huge difference in your eating!

Welcome to the site. It is wonderful, the girls are truly your new best friends. I started phase 1 last Wednesday, doing really well, except I am tired and a little sick to my stomach. Maybe I am feeling sorry for myself, since I am doing without my sweets. Keep checking in, also the recipes are great that the girls have posted. Good Luck and Welcome

!!!!

Good luck on your journey for a healthy lifestyle!

CJ, You will love it here. Post away as much as you need and any questions you have you should know you will get an answer here and plenty of support.

Good Luck on Phase 1!!!!!
