Thanks, ladies!
I wish I could get my real before pics scanned and into my fotki. I'm workin' on it. I am now 10lbs within a healthy weight, based on my BMI. I am not 10lbs within
goal, however, just to a healthy weight.
I meant to say, about the FS yahoo group, I don't know about the posts, cuz I don't pay attention to those, but in the database, there are questions for each phase. Most of the questions are answered by (I guess) someone who works for Dr. Ian. But the responses in all caps are posted by Dr. Ian. The questions are basically about what you can and can't eat during each phase.
There's also a database where people post what phase they're in, and how many pounds they've lost. It seems a lot of old posts in there, though. But still, old only means last year.
