Welcome to the Beach, Selena! Make sure you check out the updated food lists in the FAQ forum. The lists are more current than the book.

Thanks Everyone!!

Thanks everyone for the wonderful welcome...today is Day "6" for me!!! and so far, so good!

I also joined Curves and did that "4" times this week...
My first weigh in, is on Monday...I'm not expecting miracles...but I have been sooo good and made me a weekly menu planner, which I followed exactly and did not stray from it...
I just wanted to say HI...I love this forum..and hope to be around more often!!
Thanks again........I love it on the BEACH!!

Hi Selena,
I'm sure you will do just great with your weigh in. When I first saw your post I was thinking you were starting tomorrow, which is going to be my start day. I too am ready to lose the weight. I need to get rid of my cravings. Let us know how you did.

Hi Selena, welcome to the beach. I joined last year with 100 pounds to lose and lost 55 pounds in 10 months. You will find us a supportive group on this board.
