And... here we go again!
 

This is one of those "If I had a penny for every time I..." where I'd end up with 3 mansions in the Hamptons and a convertible were I to calculate how many times I tried South Beach and joined up on the forums. But, I'm ready to get with it! I think it's all the getting sick and run down that's getting to me. It's getting harder to keep up with my friends or climb stairs. I can't carry groceries up the stairs without a break and I hardly ever take the stairs to my 2nd floor classroom. I'm 25 and I feel 85 (no offense to anyone 85, of course.) So, tomorrow I am starting Phase I. I have a wedding in September that I am a bridesmaid for and I need to look better and feel better to enjoy myself. I am walking the Relay for Life in a few months and I need be in better shape for that, as well!

So, hello! I hope I can join in with you ladies and gentlemen and kick some poundage.

Also, can I add Crystal Light to plain yogurt for breakfast? I know yogurt is good for me but plain is so... plain?

:welcome3: Thousandsunny! I'm glad you decided to join us, and I love your sense of humor! You may enjoy your yogurt with Crystal Light, and you can also flavor it with SF jello powder. I like to use the SF DaVinci syrups and a dash of cinnamon in mine.

:welcome: Sunny!!! :wave:

So glad to have you with us! You know, most of us have fallen off, gotten back on, fallen off, gotten back on...but it only takes one more time of doing something and sticking with it to find success...and this may just be that time for you! :goodluck:

Like Cottage, I like SF syrup and cinnamon in my yogurt, but you can add lots of other stuff...in P2, you can add SF jam (I love that!).

thousandsunny - I can totally relate! I've started and stopped Weight Watchers too many times to count - and I'm talkin' after I became Lifetime! :rolleyes: I was going to start SBD today, but just wasn't quite 'there' in my head. So after reading a lot of posts and looking over the book again, it looks like tomorrow will be 'the' day, so we'll start together!

This couldn't be a nicer bunch of folks! Welcome!!:welcome2:

Thanks for the warm welcome! Good luck on starting today, Bella. :D

:welcome2: So glad you decided to join us. I, too, have been on the diet roller coaster all my life. This time, I'm not on a diet that has a beginning and an end...this time, I am changing my life...one day at a time. You can do this!

I love that {no offense to anyone 85} I almost spit out my crystal light. Welcome to the board and welcome to a new start.

I think we have all been in your boat...and I for one don't plan on sinkin' this time. I am hoisting up the main sail and setting a course for sunny skies and blue water...I don't want to get to close to land because..........

Life's a Beach...and then you die....LOL :crazy:

I am full of myself today :)

:hug: ts - :crossed: Good luck to you, too! :hug: I'm so glad I found this forum!! Now I need to work on a ticker-thingy. :D

welcome welcome welcome... i like davinici syrups and chopped nuts with my plain greek yogurt (and add fruit back to it in phase 2)
