Applause and thanks! I keep thinking that I KNOW the SB diet, but lately I've felt like maybe I need to go back and read that phase 2 part again, because I think I didn't quite get it at first. And I would like permission now to use your motivational phrase, with credit to the author of course. You just can't put it more succinctly or eloquently than "I'm sure death sucks!"

AMEN, BRAVO! I used to get a little defensive when people thought I lost my weight too fast, but I followed the book to the "T" and only because I had such a high BMI and following my doctors advice I stayed on phase 1 for an additional week (except for that glass of red wine I had so well deserved by then). I also moved into phase 2 according to the books guidelines and I lost exactly what the book said to expect to lose, exactly. In fact 4thehalibut & I started on the exact same day and if you compare our weight loss, we were neck and neck all the way till I hit my goal and slowed. We both followed the book exactly the same and we both shared the exact same progress. In this case, I really LIKED "doing it by the book". Thanks for the reminder friend!

I'm with YOU; being DEAD sucks big icicles! LOL
I have to say that you've got a firm grip on where you're headed and it's safe to say where you'll end up, too! But in my book, you'll always be an Isosceles; in that only 2 of the 3 sides are equal...which leaves one side that is ALWAYS different or wrong (depending on how you look at it!). See, in other words, you'd be perfect if it wasn't for the weight issue...2 outta 3 ain't bad!! sucks when I think too deeply, huh? LOL TRY and keep up!!

AMEN sister! It's great to hear your words of wisdom.. It is my 3rd week on SB and I too have been following the SB book to the T. It takes awhile to know how to eat, but as you say, once you get it, you can start making good decisions. I can only recall one time where my stomach actually growled. As a newbie, I appreciate your words of wisdom. Thanks for sharing!

Love the statements! It is good to go over this now and then, because it's so easy to stray and forget. "Death sucks" - SO TRUE!

What a fantastic reminder to us all - thank you so so much my friend. So many mantra's in one journal. Its true isin't it that if ya stick to the plan, really stick to it (not your version of same) then it will work, so it will, ya might need the patience of Job - but it will work.... as someone said a while back 'its a lifestyle - not a sentense" !!

For a minute there I thought I took a wrong turn and ended up in South Beach Boot Camp! *winks* I, too, love the line "I'm sure death sucks." I will have to file that away in the memory banks for future use!
