I have some questions... I know they really dont say much about portion control or calories.... so if I get hungry after I already ate, can I still eat again?

How about exercise? I can still keep doing the same 3-5 days a week, right? Just wondering since I'm eating less carbs.

Hey Belle! no, there really isn't any potion control except on the dairy& nuts. Oh and on the sweet stuff like SF jello or popsicles. You aren't suppose to go over 100 cals per day on those. I don't know the exacts off hand at the moment but I eat 3 meals a day and 2 snacks plus a 'dessert'. I drink water with every meal or snack but if you still fell hungry, then eat something.
As for the exercise, I do Mon-fri and don't seem to have a problem. I moved on to phase 2 this week because I started running. So, if you keep the exercise moderate, you should be fine. Good luck to you and don't give up! You will LOVE the results!

I heard from Jane a few days ago. She sent out a post.

I am doing phase 2 right now because of all the running I have been doing. Lost 4 lbs so far this week! YAY!

I found this little rice cakes as a snack. I think they are ok for phase 2. They are made of brown rice and drizzled with carmel or chocolate. (Not alot)
They are made by quaker oats. They are good and only 90 calories.

Thanks for the tip on those rice cakes. As my training intensifies, I will need higher carb snacks! The healthy kind!!

Absolutely, eat to your heart's content.....there are some things that are limited, like dairy and nuts and sweets (sugar free jello for example), but everything else allowed is fair game! Exercise is still the same, some people experience less energy, I experience the opposite. Keep doing what you're doing now, you may have to slow it down a notch or two! GOOD LUCK and we are here for you!

Happy Saturday all...I stopped by in between loads of laundry. The boys are with Heather...yeah she made it safely after her 21st birthday and took the boys to the mall....so I'm cleaning and getting ready for tomorrow! Have a great day!

Yeah for the weekend! Hi Angela, hope you having a better day today. How have you been feeling?
Thanks Jo, Tasha and Ang for all you great help and advise. I'm off to a good start and managing well.
Just wanted to stop by and say "hi". I'm off to my son's baseball game and then the BEACH..... yay the real beach. And I"m proud to say that I will be wearing a bathing suit and not shorts and a t-shirt. I'm feeling pretty confident today....LOL
Have a wonderful weekend. I will catch up with you all later.
