Hey everyone I am new to the board but not to the beach!! However I am starting over....ugh... Today I read a post that confused me about phase 1 being to stabilize your blood sugars and to reduce your cravings. It also said phase 2 is the weight loss phase.... I'm confused....I'm also from Louisiana, can I eat boiled crawfish?


Thanks

Hi Kelly,


I answered your questions in that other post, but I'm re-posting it here for you:



I was not aware that phase one was used to settle your cravings!!


Yes, it's the real purpose of this phase.

Hi,


Yes, you can eat boiled crawfish in all phases.


If you have any other questions about phase 1 or 2, please let us know.

On the boiled crawfish is perfectly fine - its just boiled with water/spices. Its actually very healthy! Don't eat any starchy veggies boiled with it (potatoes, corn, etc.)

Also - like Maggie said phase 2 is where you stay until you reach your goal weight. I lost 8lbs on phase 1, but lost 62lbs on phase 2. I have now been on phase 3 for two years for maintenance.
