I would just try to avoid the sauce as much as possible (if there is one on it) and eat lots of veggies and I'll think you'll be okay.

I've been off of here a few days- had to pack and get ready to leave in 2 days!! So this is the last day and I couldn't be happier!!!! I've been going to the gym but after beef day I gained 3 pounds so I've lost 4lbs total. I'm completely happy though cause I feel lighter and healthier. It's gotten me on the right track to stay away from bread and pasta.

I agree, just try to stay way from the sauce if you can and you should be fine. I wouldn't worry too much.

That's awesome! Congrats!!!!!!!! Wow! You leave in 2 days! How exciting!!!!

I didn't weigh myself today...but I'll let you guys know first thing in the morning. I know FI is down 15lbs, i can't even explain how happy he is and proud that we made it the week (with minimal "cheating"...ie - going out for dinner Tuesday night).

We did it! For those of you just starting...YOU CAN DO IT!

Thanks! I keep stressing that if you're average to thin, you'll lose less and probably slower, don't get discouraged!

I don't know. I think I read no on the sweetners, since the diet is a "detox" also. But I know others have used them. I think that rule "in moderation" would work

Thanks for the cooking tips ladies! So DH and I went to the grocery store to get everything tonight, get home and unload the car and what do i find.... a Mr. Goodbar!! He says it's his last meal before I make him a vegan, so over dramatic!! Anyway, our soup is simmering so tomorrow begins the weight loss. I want to lose 20lbs by October.
