Anyone else doing Phase 1.5 - a do-over?

Sheila and I are both re-doing phase one in variations - just curious if anyone else is doing anything along the same lines.


I call it phase 1.5 - lol since I do a grain and a fruit serving per day.


I've been dealing with usual cravings - mostly for chocolate and sugar, cakes, bread, and soda - which were all my no-no that's how I got fat foods.


The craving seem to be gone - vanished without a trace today, but I am going to stick with phase 1.5 for just a couple days to see how it goes.


Here's what I've had so far and I am thinking some NSA buttercream ice cream is my snack later on.


BREAKFAST - 3 scrambled eggs w/ mozz and salsa, bottle water, caffeine free diet pepsi (CFDP)

SNACK - small salad - 2-3 cups spinach, few tomatos, few chick peas, 1/3 orange pepper and 2T dressing

LUNCH - chunks of white chicken breast dipped in SF southwest creamy ranch, bottle water, CFDP

SNACK - 2T (maybe 3?) chunky peanut butter

DINNER - 1/2 cup angel hair pasta, extra lean turkey meatballs, 1/4 cup green beans

SNACK - (when Sean gets home and eats) medium salad (3-4 cups) spinach w/ grapes and 2T dressing


I just decided to nix the ice cream - it already feels like a gateway food.


anywho - anyone else in the boat with me?

Me too. Actually I call it Phase 2 light. I am following a strict week 1 of phase 2 just to get my eating back in control since returning from vacation.

Is week 1 of phase 2 - 1 grain and 1 fruit?


Phase 2 lite, lol that's funnier than phase 1.5.

I think going for a phase 2 light is a much better idea than constantly revisiting phase 1 which will only slow down your metabolism.

I can't figure out if mine are already gone - and if they are why were they here and what ended them?


Today was a really hard day with the kids and an incredibly emotional day - very upsetting w/ the loan stuff - so if it were emotional eating, I should have been out of control again - but I'm not. Not even close!


I can't relaly pin it on AF - anyone ever heard of post-ovulation cravings?? no!

Jennie - I love the idea of following a Phase 1.5!!


Even though I am to have three grains/two fruit, I find that my cravings for something sweet are increasing as I am adding them...I guess I am really sensitive to these things.

Since I only have 7 pounds to lose, I do follow a phase 1.5 type of plan.
