I just wamted to echo all of what Joy said! I did SB following my first pregnancy and now this one as well. I am nursing so I went straight into full phase 2 but am still losing weight (just slower paced).


Meal planning is key in my house. When things get busy and I don't have a plan, I grab for anything to eat (and its usually unheathly). With SB, I know my menu atleast a day in advance and I have healthy options when I don't have time to think!

Another good way is to realize that this is a way of eating....forever...not a diet.
