>I suddenly didn't have time to enjoy my nightly glasses of wine.

By the time we got into our house, I KNEW I had lost weight - sure

enough, I'd gone down 8 pounds. <<

Hi ,

I am also just starting the SBD. I found your post rather

interesting. I am one of those people who was lucky to be able to

eat whatever I wanted and not gain weight. Then I discovered wine

and started drinking it regularily. Now as I think back, that was

when I started to slowly gain weight... could it be the wine???

Wow!! Guess I will find out as I am not having any during Phase 1.

In fact, I may just stay away from it for good and just have the odd

glass at special occasions.

I am anxious to find out how big a difference it will make for me.

Has anyone else noticed the same thing as ?

Debra,

That is funny! I will tell you ... keep doing what you're doing.

When I did SB faithfully for the first few months, I absolutely had a

totally changed WOE ... bread cravings - gone, which is amazing for me

becuase I'm a bread-a-holic.

Again, keep it up, and avoid the wine or at least limit it to special

ococcasions, and you'll be amazed.

One other " wine " note ... I've noticed that when I've had a couple of

glasses, I will eat with total abandon. (haha) Meaning, I'll go make

a piece of toast ... or 3. So, if I am going to indulge, I make sure

I have a PLAN of action for when the munchies kick in ... and they

always do. :)

You'll do great ... and you'll feel sooooo great. Keep it up! :)

> OMG I could have written that email!!! LOL I was 5 lbs less at my 6

week postpartum visit than I was when I got preggo w/ my daughter and

kept it off the whole time I nursed. Then, exactly like you, I gained

like 20 lbs when she weaned. I was used to eating whatever I wanted

because I could for 15 months. I do feel like after 10 weeks of the

SBD way of eating, I have a ton more control over my cravings and

appetite. I am back to realizing I can't just eat whatever I want and

still look good. :-)

Hi- I am new to the board and new to South Beach. Just finishing my

1st week.

I thought the book said wine was ok . . . which really made me happy

because I really love red wine. Now I am concerned . . . I'd like to

hear more about this.

Hi Kim and welcome to our wonderful group! :) It's been quiet here

this weekend, but usually we're more chatty.

I'm not much of a wine drinker, but I believe that wine is OK once

you get to Phase 2. I'm thinking that 6 oz is allowed, but please

don't quote me! lol Your best bet is to look at the Phase 2 allowed

foods list that is in our files. Those lists are more up to date

than the book. SBD also has a new (and improved) Guide to Good Carbs

and Fats paperback book out that will probably have wine and alcohol

info listed too.

Good luck to you and I hope you like it here.
