"Newbie" to the beach just today!

  • Hi everyone,

    I'm just starting the sbd today with my husband. We have been reading the book and have our fridge stocked with lots of veggies and lean meats and eggs. I would love to buddy up with someone for support. The first two weeks of phase one I know will be the most difficult. I have around 40 lbs to lose and so does my husband. I've made it through my first day, but had a problem with eating eggs in the morning. YUK! Didn't set well in my stomach to now I'm dreading what tommorrow will bring. I think eggs aren't going to work for me. Maybe i'll just eat a little later in the moring and try that. Anyway, I just wanted to start chatting with other beachers to help stay on track. Good luck to all!

  • Hi C Bo Be!

    I"m restarting ph1 tomorrow morning. I've done this before and lost about 10 lbs then gained about 5lbs then restarted and lost 5 and now i've gained about 8. Have you look at the recipe files they have for ph1? There alot of ideas of what to have.

    Hope you had a great 1st day and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
  • It's Day 2 on the beach Yippee! I've got all my little containers ready to take to work. Full of healthy beach food. Hubby and I worked in the kitchen most of the day yesterday preparing our foods. It's going to take alot of preparation for us as we both work full time jobs and work alot of overtime.
    Glad to hear from everyone and maybe Patty you and I can follow each others progress since we are starting at the same time. I gotta get to work now so have a great day.
