Default First Day

Hi. I'm Rachael and I feel all weird typing this, I haven't been on a new message board in YEARS and it's strange. Anyway, that's neither here nor there. Today's my first day on South Beach. Yesterday was my first day, too, as were Sunday and Saturday. I'm not totally insane, I promise. I've just decided that I'm going to pretend that each day is the first day of my new way of eating because I can always get through first day. Eventually I won't need to tell myself that, but whatever works for now.

I want to lose 100lbs, and since my first first day, I'm down about 3. I weigh daily because otherwise I put blinders up and don't adjust when I screw up. So that's all. Hi.

Hey Rachael!

Have you found our South Beach forum yet? It'd be a great spot to settle in and get started with posting.

You may also want to visit our 100 lb club, a group for those on their way to losing or who have lost 100 lbs or more.

3 lbs is a great start and you're definitely on your way! Can't wait to see you around more soon!

Hey that's a great idea Rachael!



We've got a 100lb club, and a South Beach area. Both you might want to check out ^_^

You can do this! It's a long road, but it is well worth it!

You know, I feel the same way-that every day is Day one for me (which is why I named my 3FC blog Day One.) It's a great philosophy-each day a new beginning, a new day, etc.
Welcome!
