Hey ladies!
I'm Melissa, a 21 year-old college student who's new to SB.  I've been reading the book over the holiday and when I start back at school on Jan 7 I willbe starting Phase 1.  I decided to wait until I'm back at school to start because I will be incontrol of exactly what's in my fridge durring the phast that I hear the carb cravings are the stongest and I think it will help me to be successful.  A little backround on me- and why I am starting SB is I've been overweight my whole life but after my pregnancy my weight really got out of control, I gained 60+ lbs durring pregnancy, lost 30 and then have continued to slowly gain over the past 2 years.  I carry most my weight in my mid-section and one night while I was googling "belly fat" I found a link on SB that said, because the program uses a low-glycemic index way of eatting, people who carry their weight in their core are usually sucessful.  I'm not here for a diet, or new years resolution, I'm here for support in making my life change and I look forward to getting to know everyone!
