I'm starting P1 fresh again too! Post with us in the on plan thread! It's awesome for keeping track of your eating and sharing all things "on plan" with each other!

I've got a brunch on january 8 that might be tricky to navigate strictly on plan, but otherwise, I've gotta keep these next two weeks clean!

Count me in, I already had my Phase 1 breakfast. I may not do the whole two weeks but will see how the cravings are. I am ready to get rid of all the weight I gained back last year and continue on.

Welcome to all the new chickees!!!

Hi all

I'm new all around, to 3 fat chicks and the South Beach Diet. I'm starting JSB on Jan 3rd (have a dinner with a great aunt on the 2nd that would be impossible to not eat her food). I want to lose 35 lbs. Nervous about phase 1 but know I need it--carbs/sugar is my worst enemy.

Hoping to draw inspiration from you all. Best of luck to everyone!

Back on the beach starting tomorrow! I am not weighing myself until the AM, so I don't know what the damage of the past year or so has been, but I know it's not pretty! I stocked up the fridge and pantry today, and did some cooking tonight... a big pot of lentils, some braised kale, roasted veggies, which I figured are good foods to mix-and-match with eggs, beans, salad, etc. throughout the week for a varied phase one... it's on!!!

Looking forward to taking this journey with all of you! Happy new year

Hi all! I am a veteran 3fcer but a first-time South Beacher. Excited to get started (today is my day one after putting on 9 lbs of holiday bloat. blah.) I've spent my day perusing recipes and this forum has helped SO MUCH! Good luck to everyone!

Well, I did it I stepped on the scale after 2 or 3 weeks. Not too bad. To stay accountable I promised to post. 150 lbs. not as bad as I thought it might be.Unfortunatly, I can't start phase 1 today. I haven't been to the groc store and I'm not as well stocked as I thought. Also, too much junk in the fridge, soo tomorrow's the day.

Yes, yes, YES, I am back on the P1 wagon.

I have been looking forward to this in an odd way. I have been traveling and visiting family for the last two weeks and it has been a disaster. Actually I have been slipping for the last SIX months but it was accelerated by the holidays/vacation. I am flabby and feel like and based on how my "big" clothes are fitting, I am larger than I was when I weighed the same previously. Say what?

I dared to step on the scale today. I am up 10-12 lbs from six months ago. WHY did I do this to myself? It is so ridiculously difficult for me to lose weight, talking more than a year to get where I was.

ANYway, I have come to accept that I need to radically change my relationship with food & eating. I may not be overweight but I have some scary eating habits and very self-destructive thinking in this realm. I still don't know why. I feel so much better when I am not obsessively thinking about <insert name of simple carb food>, so I need to just suck it up and make a plan to get myself back in shape.

Phase 1 today but a very disordered, unplanned Phase 1 day so I am not posting a menu. Tomorrow will be planned. I've made bean soup, roasted nuts and spaghetti squash deep dish pie and I will go shopping tonight to stock up on fresh veggies/Greek yogurt/eggs/tofu/fish.

to all of us

I am restarting tomorrow.

I have been doing SBD since 6/10. I have lost 50+ pounds but the last few months have been baaaaddd food choices left and right.

I also hit a painful food rut so I just ordered the SBD Quick and Easy cook book and used all new meals for this restart!

I cant wait to get my energy back and glad we wont be eating out anymore.

Good luck everyone else!!!
