One question for anyone on the program now or recently: what is the brand of bread that is "allowed" on the Dr. B diet? Many years ago, it was Hollywood, then it changed to a Dempsters brand.

I'm afraid of the scale!
It's been a week since my last weigh-in. I'm feeling pretty good...but am hesitant to get back on the scale. The way I see it, I'm in for disappointment: either I didn't lose as much as I thought or want; or the scale hasn't budged.
