What a fantastic way of eating. I had been doing Schwarzbein but not following it strictly enough so I wasn't losing. I tried going to a Weight Watchers meeting, and YUK!!!! The food was so fake and awful, and so against everything I have learned Low Carbing. Meats and fats were hardly included at all on Weight Watchers. Recently I read 4 of Suzannes books, and I totally love how natural it is. I have been Sommersizing for 2 days now. The one thing I have not given up yet is my morning coffee or afternoon Diet Cokes. I hope that does not cause an insulin response.

Cool Welcome!

Hi Sandelee and Christy P!!

My key thought to Somersizing is this:
If you fall off track at a meal or snack, go right back to the SS WOE (way of eating) at the next meal or snack. If you don't, it's downhill from there.

You both can do it!

Christy P - I recommend the latest book: Fast & Easy. It has the most up to date information on Somersizing. It also has quick and easy recipes for you to make.

Glad to have you!

Hi KittyKat2!

Do you know if a basic outline is written up somewhere? I'm starting my new job on Monday and can't get the book until my next paycheck but want to get started!!

I tried the SS site but there is SO MUCH stuff on there, it is a bit confusing! She has herself immersed in SO many things! LOL!!

But, if you or anyone knows of or where an outline of the diet can be obtained, please let me know.

Thanks!! I'm looking forward to this!

Hi Kitty and Christy,

I like the book "Fast and Easy" too. All the books are great, there isn't one I don't like. It is pretty easy to follow. I don't really understand the reasoning behind food combining. In Dr. Schwarzbein's second book she says she does not agree that food combining is good. Oh well, this is a very easy way of eating to follow, and I am liking Somersizing so far.

There is a website www.suzannesomers.com that has a lot of information.

Sandy
