Just wanted to introduce myself and say HI! Have been lurking for a week or so and this seems like a great group.
I started phase one yesterday after returning from a week at an all inclusive in Cancun. If I had not just been on vacation I likely would have started with a 1.5 because I have been on WW for years doing Core/Simply Filling. I already eat pretty clean and don't struggle with cravings too much unless it is TOM.
I gained about 6 lbs on vacation drinking sugary drinks and eating whatever I wanted. Wouldn't trade that week for anything though!!! We had a great 15th anniversary trip.
My DH has done SB in the past while I did WW but the fat free only junk was really getting to me and I was relying on too much wheat and fruit so I told him I would beach it with him this time. Hello almonds!!! So happy about that small thing!
Yesterday was day 1 and we had a great day. I don't expect to struggle too much with phase 1 but am looking forward to some melon in two weeks! I miss the fruit not the grains!
Anyway...hi to all.
