  • Hi!

    I found this site from a post (from Deb I guess) on the sweet talk board. I can't stand the format they use so I kinda skipped through it.

    I've been doing the Zone since late October last year. I lost 11 pounds (started at 138) fairly quickly and then have stalled since Xmas at 127. I also exercise 5-6 times a week (4-5 60 min aerobic classes that include weights) and one day a week of Pilates.

    I looked into Paleo but found it was just too restrictive for me (mainly the dairy part, though it did get me to finally kick my coffee habit). SB seems like it would be an easy adjustment for me; I already got through most of the cravings by being on the Zone. I also cook for a family of 4 kids (3-17) and DH.

    I'm waiting on the SB book from half.com but bought a couple of cookbooks yesterday; does anyone have some good recipe site or book recommendations?
