I just joined Buddyslim a couple of days ago and have just started reading about SouthBeach this evening - you sound like such a great group! I'm sure I'll have a million questions along the way! I'm doing research tonight so that I can do some grocery shopping tomorrow and get kicked off!

Wish me luck! I'm so happy to be here!

The only suggestion I have is that you wait until Monday to start, because the diet is hard enough as it is, without the added pressure of the weekend temptations! Welcome aboard!

Hey!!!, Hey....You, Yeah, YOU!!! get away from my surfboard!!!!!...gotta go guys.....sorry, someone trying to swipe my board.....Peace, out!

If I may put my two cents in...I'd say to start on Monday. The first two weeks are tough without having to deal with the added pressure of the weekend temptations!

I'm so glad this forum is here. I had some success with South Beach last year (but gained the weight back + some due to a hectic work and school schedule) and now I'm here to try it again. I have 3 days under my belt now and going strong! I bought a great SBD eating out guide that lists a variety of common (and region specific) restaurants, outlining suggested food for each Phase from each menu. I've found it incredibly helpful. Anyone who eats out or travels a lot should definitely pick it up!

Welcome aboard!! Congrats on 3 days strong!
