Hi and welcome!


The best advice I can give is to read the book, check out our Getting Started thread (I'll post the link here for you) and to be active on this board. You'll find lots of information, support and success stories here to keep you motivated. Also, feel free to join in at our Journals folder below. Post anything you like there to help you stay on track. And ask any questions that come up - we love to help newbies!

hey thanks for the welcome
I do have the book(and have read it) and I have a small pocket size south beach good carbs guide. I also checked out your Phase 1 getting started thread and also printed a copy of it. Thanks for the info because I liked all the updated information my book does not have. I'm thinking of getting the SB cookbook, too. I really don't like to cook but who knows maybe if I use some new recipies it will motivate me....as long as the recipies are easy.....lol remember I'm a beginner I love reading all your threads here on the site, too. I need all the info, tips and help I can get. I don't want to set myself up to fail so if anyone has any tips or advice for me I'd love to hear it.

If you're going to invest in one of the cookbooks, the Quick & Easy one is my favorite.
