Talking A Grandma on a Diet!!
Actually....its been a Grandma on a thousand diets!

So I changed my mind and decided not to diet anymore - I am reading the SB Book. I like the foods and I think I will make a life style change to become healthier! (If I lose some weight in the process - more power to me! ) Since I do need to lose about 115 lbs - it will be a lot of power!

I have enjoyed reading the posts, I have started a journal, I will be starting SB on Monday - after I have a chance to thoroughly go through the book on Sunday!

I look forward to getting to know all of you! I have been browsing many sites and many message boards - but this seems like a great one!

Welcome Mary, glad to have you here!!! One of the good things about SBD is it's easy to go back to if you "fall off the wagon" ...

Good luck ... check out the Phase I foods sticky if you need help with your shopping list!!!

Thanks! I have looked over the Phase 1 list very carefully. Saturday will be shopping day - so it will be fun!

I am a little nervous, but I am determined to make this happen with as little stress as possible...

You have it all wrapped up in a nut shell.

My mantra is:

Health is my goal and weight loss is my gift.

Join us on the DAILY, Just Chat, MSN, and Bootcamp.

You CAN and WILL do this.

Luck is your friend and Will Power tags along.
