Hi there!


I just started SBD, last Monday.  Four days in, and it truly hasn't been that hard!  Thank goodness.


My biggest challenge is not denying myself bread, pasta or dairy.  Oddly enough, it's my nightly glass of red wine.  Luckily, week nights don't prove to be too much of a problem... but the weekend is fast approaching!  It's somewhat ironic, that I chose a diet in which wine is limited (although I know it's only at first).  My husband just finished our wine cabinet, and it will hold 140+ bottles.  All of our friends know about our new cabinet addition, and have started dropping off wine bottles to help fill it!!!  It's not torture to leave them alone, the bottles look quite pretty (unopened) in the cabinet. 


Besides that, I'm glad I've found a diet that isn't terribly hard to stick to.  All of my friends have gone back to their college weight.  And I'm the last to take 'the plunge.'  I have about 15-20 lbs. to lose.  But, I would be ecstatic to lose 30 and be back at my high school / college weight!


I only hope that I can keep my will power in check and hit my goal.  It would be REALLY great to look fabulous this summer!


Cheers to all!

I had two lists (one from someplace online, and one from the book).

Welcome to the board!!!! TO help you with the wine - just remember it gets better with age! So it will taste better 1.5 weeks from now right? ;-)
