Hi

I have been on the Phase 1 part of SBeach but have not lost the 8-10 lbs. they talk about in the book. I am not overweight to begin with but have wanted to lose 5-10 lbs. so I tried the diet but have not lost that much, any tips? Do you lose that much only when you have alot to lose?

simply no. the people who lost 8-13 lbs were obese, sedentary heart patients with horrible diets to begin with. If you only have 5-10 lbs to lose you could expect maybe a 1 lb. loss in P1. The goal of P1 is not weight loss anyway. It's simply to normalize blood sugars, get rid of food based cravings and prepare for the real weight loss portion of the program which is P2. If you only have that little to lose it may go as slowly as 1 lb a month. Personally I'd move to P2, learn to eat healthily and focus on exercise to lose that last little bit.
