Hello all,

I love this site. It has given me so much info and answered so many of my questions. I have been doing SB for about 5 weeks now. I lost 10lbs in the first 2 weeks. I haven't weighed myself since.

I have been on weight watchers for the last few months and haven't had good results so i thought i would try something new. A friend suggested SB and bought me the book so i couldn't refuse. My weight watcher membership will be canceled on July 2 so i will continue to follow SB and weigh in until then.

Phase I was a challenge for me. I love flour tortillas, cake, cookies, and chocolate. I DID IT!! I had a perfect 2 weeks!!!
On Phase II I haven't been perfect but i've been close. (Snickers just came out in dark chocolate ) Now i need to get on a regular excercise routine.
I'm so excited to meet all of you.

Nice to meet you! With your attitude, you are going to do GREAT!!!
When everyone around you begins to notice the weight loss, that is just the best motivator ever! For me it was my kids...they are really happy that I am looking more like "me" everyday!

Hi, My Only Sunshine and !

So glad you had a perfect P1...it really sets you up for success!
I'm glad the site has been helpful, too.

Yay for your friend...reading the book is so essential to any program, but especially this one!

Have you tried Russell Stovers' "Nutty Nougat Bars?" They're sugar free and though they have all sorts of crap in them in terms of processed food, I find they really kill a candy bar craving...they taste just like little snickers bars! Might try that next time...even though the chocolate was dark, the other things have sugar.

The best part is that you didn't let a little fall keep you off the wagon. Good for you!

Glad to have you with us! Pull up a towel and we'll hail a cabana boy to bring over some frosty sbd-safe drinks!
