Got up this morning and weighed. I did not lose anything so I'm happy with that. We went out for Mexican last night for my birthday and then again with just the 4 of us this afternoon. We went to the Palace here in town and I had grilled pork shis-ka-bobs. They were delicious! I had steamed baby veggies on the side and unsweetened tea to drink. I also partook in a Greek Salad. Not sure what the carb content on it was. But all of it was VERY good and I don't think I ventured off plan too much. I know some of the things I've eaten the last 2-3 days haven't been in the South Beach Book, but I am trying to stay carb free as much as possible when eating out. I feel SO MUCH better on this plan. I know I've already said it before, but I am not hungry for the most part. If I were on Weight Watchers, I'd already been cheating then starving myself prior to weigh in. I do not need to do that with this. I can live with this style of eating and once I get into the next phase, adding back in fruits and other items, I am going to convert my family. It is all good for you and you just need to be careful and watch what kind of fats you take in. This is not Atkins where you can load up on a package of bacon fried in a potful of grease.
My plan this week is the same, you do phase 1 for two weeks, then move on. I am anxious to see how much I lose in week #2. I most likely will convert my titles to weeks at some point which will make it easier on me to figure my average weekly weight loss, but for now will keep it as a Day log.
If you're reading and on South Beach, post and let me know how it's going for you, how many pounds lost, how long you been on it, etc. I'd love to know how others have done and what I have to look forward to. Can't wait to post for the challenge tomorrow. Getting close to the 10 pound mark!!!!
Stay tuned!
