Just finished my first week!
« on: July 06, 2010, 08:46:56 AM »
Hello everyone,
Well, I read Doug's book (actually reading it a second time) and his explanation was so incredibly easy.  I finally get it!!  I am/was addicted to sugar!!!   Although I avoided sweets, sugar was in all my carbs!!!  So I thought I was eating healthy when in fact I was adding more fat.
I followed the plan and lost 5 pounds in my first week!!
I am excited about this new eating plan.  Sustained energy through the day, no sleepiness after lunch, it's great!
I have to admit I am struggling a little with constipation.  I came from a very high fiber (sugar) plan where a trip to the rest room was 5-6 times per day.  Things are much better now.
Anyway, I am still fine tuning with that and will incorporate more veggies and will investigate the crispbread talked about in the book.

Welcome and GREAT JOB!!!
I bought a case of the GG Bran Crispbread online, I got free shipping too!
At first  I was wondering what I could eat on them...so I wrote in and asked my forum friends
for suggestions.  Now I love eating them and have made chicken salad, egg salad and many dips
to dip them in.
They help me tremendously in staying regular...give them a shot!

Welcome SW.  Definitely try the gg crispbreads.  I have used them for 3 years now and I was always constipated before.  So nice to have a natural way to encourage things along.  Congratulations on a great first week.  :)

Welcome to the FTS Family!  We have a great support group online and everyone seems very encouraging and offers great tips on recipes, etc.
Today completes week 5 for me.  Eating healthy will give you great rewards of better health, more energy, hopefully more time on earth to enjoy your family, etc.  Make it a great day and enjoy this FTS program!  (Thanks Doug and Sherry for sharing this program with the world!  May God Bless You!)
