Finished with Wave 1!!!!!
 

Yesterday was my last day on Wave 1! My total weight loss was 9 pounds. I am very excited and scared to start Wave 2. I think, at least for a little while, I'm going to follow the books menu guide to the "T". I don't want to go nuts, you know?

My thoughts on Wave 1: It was not terrible. I do notice that I get a little irritable with my husband since he doesn't follow the diet. I got this way with all the other diets too. So, I'm hoping this irritability goes away. I do love the food! This is the healthiest I've ever (?) eaten! I don't think my cravings have gone away completely. And I don't think I'll be starting up on the dark chocolate 3 times a week, just yet. I'll give it a while before I do that. All in all, I'm happy! Now, I just need to get my exercise going!

Good for you Miranda. Sounds like you have it under control. We all get irritable with changes. I think that is human nature. For me it doesn't have to be just diet. It can be somethings simple. I know if you are used to eating more sugar and stop it does take your body a little while to adjust.

Yay Miranda! It definitely sounds like you're going to do just fine on Wave 2.... good luck.. I'll see you over on the menu thread!

Congrats on the weight loss! You sound like you are entering Wave 2 w/a good plan. Stay strong, you can do it!:carrot:
