Hello all!
I hope I am posting correctly. Allow me to quickly introduce myself... My name is Amy, I'm 23 and am ready to finally get serious about losing weight. A few days ago my aunt was visiting from Texas and had lost 15 lbs on SBD and that really peaked my interest. I started looking up info on the internet and found this site. I have seen the list of recommended foods and those to avoid but I don't have the book as of yet and was wondering what was the best way to start at this point. Can anyone give me a brief summary? What are the benefits to having the book? Thanks for the help, the message boards seem like great support!

Hi Amy! Welcome to the Beach.
The best thing to do is read through the FAQ. There's a TON of info here. More than you'll find even in the book. Lots of recipes, too.
Good luck, and join us on the daily threads!
