That's great, Sabine. My menu today is exactly the same as yesterday's. I can obviously tolerate a certain amount of boredom if it allows me to be lazy ;) .

So far, I've been doing pretty well on this recent reboot, except for yesterday, when I went overboard with pistachios. I'd had 2 hours sleep the night before, and my resolution was weak. I suppose it could have been worse--at least the pistachios, which are no salt variety, are healthy ;) . Anyway, today: Br: V8 low…

I've been AWOL for a while, and the scale proves it! I'm going back to what has worked for me in the past--SB and posting here. By the way, what is ETL?

Thanks, Sabine. I joined but haven't checked FB recently.

I know I need to reboot, but I've lost my motivation. I start out each day well, then I lose my way. Any suggestions?

Sabine, I'm always so amazed at how much exercise you get. You are so good! I just try to walk as much as possible and go to a weekly yoga class. My dog gets me out for 40 minutes in the morning, then 2 20-30 minute walks during the day. Of course, our walks are more strolls since she does a lot of sniffing along the way.…

Folks, I'm back from my mini-vacation and in desperate need of a Phase 2 reboot! Sabine, I wasn't aware of the Facebook group, but I will look into it.

Do you know of any decent-tasting sugar-free hot chocolate? I'm missing that in this cold weather.

Sabine, I hope the surgery went well and that you are recovering well.

Sabine, good luck with your dental procedure. And congrats on the 6 lbs. I've somehow managed to lose 3 lbs by being more rigorous (though hardly perfect) in SB Phase 2.

Sabine, I admire your dedication. I don't think I could manage Phase 1--even Ph 2 is hard for me to stick to these days!

This looks delicious. I'm planning to try it.

Thanks!

Sabine, the key lime pie sounds good. What do you mean by "cooked"? Is it just the boiling water to make the jello, which is then chilled, after which it is added to the yogurt?

OK, so I finally reread the relevant parts of the book and learned that I've been having too much fruit. I will need to cut back, though, I suppose, if that's the worst thing I've been doing, that's not too bad. I will taper off.

Yesterday was OK, except that while I was waiting to get my hair cut, I had a small piece of chocolate--not a sin, but not a really good way to start out. I'm home today, so I can control my selections a bit more Today: Br: V8 low sodium veg. juice, Kellogg's All Bran Bran Buds with blueberries, banana, skim milk Lu:…

Hi, guys, Happy New Year. I put on about 6 lbs in the past year, and it's time to take them off. I'm going back to Phase 2 more strictly, though I'm not sure I did very well yesterday. I need to reread The Book. Today: Br: V8 low sodium veg. juice, Kellogg's All Bran Bran Buds with blueberries, banana, skim milk Lu:…

I'll be joining you too, Sabine.

You too, Magic! Glad to see you are treating yourself well.

Magic, I know where you're coming from. This is a tough time of year to avoid temptation, which is why I'm trying to balance my days--if I overdo lunch, I try to have a salad for dinner. I'm doing the best I can, but sweets are tempting. I figure if I can limit the damage during this period, I'll follow Sabine's suggestion…

Enjoy your holidays, folks. Stay safe and healthy. See you next year for the reboot!

Are Amy's products high in sodium?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Magic, I'm doing well in general, thanks, though not especially SB-good. I'm just hoping to make it through the holidays without gaining too much. I'm sticking to my general SB pattern, but I've been doing too much of the wrong kind of snacking. I'm not going to frustrate myself during the holidays, trying to stick to SB…
