Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Hi All, I'm new here. I am not new to dieting but I am new to the SBD way eating. I purchased the book several weeks ago and plan on starting Tuesday 02/21. I'm having a complete physical on Monday, just to make sure my doctor is ok with this plan. About 5 years ago, I went on Atkins and lost 30 in two months. Needless to say I gained all the weight back and more. So, I have been very leery of Low Carb Diets. Since the SBD is neither low carb or low fat, I'm anxious to see if it will work for me. This weekend I'm going shopping to purchase my foods for phase one. I just brought a new treadmill and a new Cathe Friedrich DVD, so I should be good to go! More about me..... This morning I weighed in at 213 and my goal is to weight 125. So, I have a LONG WAY TO GO! I'm 5'4 " and kind of big boned so I carry it well. Most people think I around 170 or 180 believe it or not! My hubby has been really pressuring me to lose the weight. We made a PINKY pack when we first got married that we would not get fat. Not only have I not kept my end of the bargain, but he's weighs about 310. But he's 6'4 " and he also carries it well. I am having promising him I would lose the weight for years, but I am determined now more than ever to lose this weight…. Anyway, I am excited about trying something new and I hope I can lose weight. I will post some short term and long term goals next week. Wish me luck! Any tips on getting started will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
