Hi guys ..ive been reading posts and you all seem very helpful and supportive..I really want to try the program and think that i would be on red plan with bars...can anyone give me any feedback on what you think

im 261
5'4
little exercise

i think red, wld anyone agree?

Not sure what you would be on but wanted to say "hi" from another newbie. Good luck with the program, it has been super so far for me.

Hi dreamy
Red w/ lites is:
2.5 Proteins
4 Veggies
3 Fruits
3 Starches
1 Dairy
1 Fat
2 LA Lites
3 Condiments
1/4 Tsp. Morton Lite Salt
64 oz Water

I am wondering though, if you need to start with Red1. I am not sure of the cut-offs. Unfortunately, I cannot remember what the additional exchanges are, but someone will chime in And welcome

Red 1
you get additional to what Nicole provided:
1 more Fruit
1 more Dairy
1 more Starch

I am 5'6, but I exercise. I believed they moved me at 265 from Red 1 to Red, but can't really remember for certain. You should probably start with the Red.

I think that they kept me on Red 1 longer because I was working out 150 minutes a week minimum. They kept me on Red until 230, when I went to purple and I am to stay on purple until 190, when I go to Gold, which I stay on until 175, which is goal and then stabilization (or when I decide to lose 20 more to get me to 155)

thanks guys....I really really appreciate it more than u know...I am starting first thing tomorrow! let u know how i make out...thanks for the welcome :O)
