I am starting phase 1 on Jan 9th and I am going shopping tomorrow.

BTW My Niece is going to do this with me do you think it will stall her weight loss if she has one piece of wheat toast every other day?? It makes her sick to eat eggs every morning..

I did SB in 2004 and lost 17 pounds and hope to be as successful as I was then.

Hi Loving mommy! Me and DH will be joining you !!!

Hmm: Here's a link to Alternatives to Eggs in the morning..and don't forget,Think outside the box.. we don't have to rely on traditional items fer breakfast..

Phase 1 is to help us rid our cravings fer sugar and processed stuff. I don't know if having WW everyother day will help her with that.. Maybe neice can take a look at that link and try these other things.

Hey Loving~Mommy,

I'm going grocery shopping today and starting on Monday as well. I have about 30 pounds to lose and hope to be close to my goal by the time by 23rd birthday rolls around in May. I've had success on it before too so I know we can do it again. Good Luck!!!

I'm right there with ya! Two full weeks of P1 starting Mon 1/9 . Tomorrow I go buy a crockpot and a waffle maker. Two appliances I've never had and feel Ishould. Can't wait!!

Alrighty, I've set my PHASER TO ONE.. heh heh, I'm such a cornball!

Pearseydew: I told DH he was a MAN chicken... he said Geez, Thanks... No problem darlin, I am doing what I can do reinforce yer masculinity

OK, as MUCH as I reeeeaaallly didn't want to do this... Time to address the scale avoidance issue I've been having.. I gained 11 pounds since drifting off the beach and hangin with Whales... CRAP!!! I really hope I've learned my lesson. No more choco cherries! No more using pumpkin pie as a vegetable...no more eating ridculous portions. So, with much pain, I have reset my ticker to reflect my current weight. Sigh..Gotta git real, and be honest with you all and myself...

Oh Schatzi I can't wait to get home tonight and tell my hubby he is a MAN chicken. Our phasers are set to one again this week also. Here is today's menu.

B - one cup raw broccoli, one slice extra lean ham, 3 slices deli oven roasted turky, smidgen bit of chive and onion cream cheese to make a rollup

S - 3FC 4 bean salad

L - Taco Bake left over from last night, cottage cheese, milk and snap peas

S - celery with SF peanut butter

D - Schatzi's cola chicken (trying for first time), spinach/roman salad w/ tomatoes and cucumbers, green beans and/or steam broccoli

Typing this made me hungry must be snack time. 4 bean salad here I come.

Good luck to all us phase oners. Newbies and retreads!

Alright chickies, third time is the Charm right. STarting PH1Day1 today. I am feeeeeeeeling awful due to this cold I am having so even though cough medicine has sugar in it, I am going to have to cheat on that. Here is what I have planned for today:

B: LF String Cheese (woke up late)

S: Peanutes

L: Water Packed Tuna with rf mayo

S: Celery Stalks with Natural Peanut Butter

D: LF Chicken Parmesan

De: Fudgcicle

Wo: hopefully 60 mins of cardio...

I am starting this plan not only fully supported by you all but also my DH, and his M and F.

Pearshape - I cannot live without my waffle maker (except on this phase I will have to lol) I have a really nice crockpot, never used it. Hoping to learn how on this phase.

Schatzi - Man chicken, you are so funny! Your day looks great! ANd why isnt pumpkin pie a vegetable lol. I am resetting mine as well which pretty much negates me back to the start of my goal

Well I hope you ladies have a great OP day!

Sorry about the cold, Stephie. Any chance you can get sugar free cough medecine? I know they make it for diabetics.

Um...just a hint - peanut butter and peanuts. The Phase I rule is either, not both unless you halve the recommended serving size.

I have been reading my SB book again today and plan to shop for everything and start actually on Jan 10th. Close enough, right?

Yeah thats cool LOL

Here is my menu for today

Hot Tea to wake me up

B~ SB Choc Shake

L~ shrimp Ceasar salad w/ Ranch

S~ Left over shrimp ceasar
