Just a quick check-in here... I'm away from home helping to look after my dad through a surgery (he's fine, just a bit of a recovery period now!), totally out of my "comfort zone" and not minding SB
ONE BIT.
I continue to marvel at the physiological changes in me. I just... don't have cravings anymore. I don't even think about food except when I'm actually hungry. There is no way to explain what a new experience this is for me -- you're listening to the girl who is known for her cookery far and wide! All I EVER thought about was food. So... WOW.
This diet is so adaptable to any situation. Even traveling, I was always able to find a vegetable juice, a hardboiled egg or two or a salad with grilled or broiled chicken.
I haven't gone off plan at all, and I can hardly believe I have only 2 days left before starting Phase II. I've become such a cheerleader that I gave my dad a copy of the book for an early birthday present -- he has a fair bit to lose, too! If I were any more jazzed, I'd be annoying.

Yeah, yeah, I know.
I'm not a scale-crawler, though I did for the first time ever buy one so I could chart my progress because I think there will ACTUALLY BE SOME. I weighed before I left last Tuesday and I'll weigh when I get home next Tuesday. I'll be very interested to see what the second week of Phase I has wrought!
Hope everyone else is doing well, too!!
All the best,
Rae
