New to the beach
Good Morning Everyone!
I am brand new here today ( although I have been lurking for a few days). I am somewhat goofy as I thought I made a post introducing myself...but I am not sure where it is! So I'm trying again! My name is Jan & I started the SBD last Thursday the 8th, and doing pretty well so far...I did slip a tiny bit on Sunday, but got right back on track Monday. I am 40 years old...single mom...5'5"...starting weight 159...goal is 139 or better! I got thru Phase 1 last July & lost 14 lbs...then promptly came down with walking pneumonia and was sick as a dog...the diet naturally fell by the wayside & I gained all 14, plus a bit more back. I am now healthy & strong once again & ready to stick with it. I love your forum...you all sound like such strong, wonderful women. I look forward to sharing with you. |
Welcome, Jan. We are glad you came out of lurkdom and introduced yourself.
You'll love it here on The Beach. (The cabana boys will show up as soon as it warms up a bit!) |
Jan, welcome! :wave: I don't remember your first post... it MUST have got lost. :D
No, Ruth, I did NOT accidentally delete it! :rofl: Jan, you're not the only goofy one around here. ;) |
dessert
Thanks for the welcomes!
It's nice to know that there is support out there. I have a question... I tried making the ricotta desserts from the SBD book...I find them totally horrifying! I would rather not eat anything than suffer thru those! Maybe it's just me... But does anyone have have sweet "acceptable" alternatives for a Phase 1 dessert? (I seem to really need something sweet after dinner!) Thanks, Jan |
Jan, some folks hate the texture. I add some pasteurized egg white to thin it a bit.
On the other hand, try sugarfree Jello or sf fudgsicles. Remeber you can have up to 75 calories of a "sweet" treat, preferably made with Splenda or stevia. Remember you can have fruit on Phase II so hang in there. |
