Phase one...on to two

[luvswine]

I am on day 10 and I have to say extremely proud of myself..I have no trouble not eating carbs or sugar but love ....love wine, so this is my tenth day without any alcohol....I'm looking forward to friday to enjoy a glass or two of red...my questions is can you have sake on phase 2? Also during phase one is it ok to use corn starch? I lost 80 lbs ten years ago when I was 17 and have kept it off but trying to get past my platue...I can tell that I have lost a few pounds because my tightest jeans feel awesome!!!

Hi, LuvsWine. :wave: Congratulations! Sounds like you're doing great!

Cornstarch, if needed for thickening, is OK in any phase if used in small amounts.

I couldn't find anything specifically on sake. My guess is it probably fits as an alcohol to avoid, since it is relatively high in carbs and is made from rice. If it's important to you, you could try it along with a meal and see how you do with it.
(As with any alcohol, have it only with, or right after a meal.)
