South Beach Dieters......... Unite

[sm4987]

Hello everyone, I'm back

I'm so glad to see everyone still doing so great. I haven't had the time to read it all yet, but I will get to it. My body doesn't know which time zone it's in yet

I lost one lb this week on Phase 2 - week 2. Total of 9 on South Beach. To be honest, it is slower than I had hoped, but it is realistic. 9 lbs in four weeks is good any way you look at it. I also had a couple of flubs last weekend, but this is a lifestyle I can live with, so I am glad.

Hi everyone!!

I haven't done so well the past couple of weeks. I started letting myself have little cheats, and they have turned into bigger cheats (give and inch and take a mile). I have gained a few pounds over the last couple of weeks. I am going to go back of Phase 1 next week. I seem to do better on Phase 1. When I go back to Phase 2 I need to add things in more slowly. I feel a little down right now, but I know I will pick it back up The good thing so far with South Beach is when I fall down I have been able to pick myself up and start over again.

Congrats to all the losers!! Hopefully I will be back amongst you real soon

Hi Lisa - Good to have you here. Yes this thread is active but it seems to run in waves. Some days there are a dozen posts other times it will go a couple of days and no one posts.

Sheree' - Welcome back. Hope you had a great time. You will have to tell us how the trip went.

Good news, I think the bicycling has helped. My weight is starting to creap down again. All total for June I lost 2 lbs. And almost half of that was this past week. We will see how things go for July. Hopefully my weight loss will pick up a little bit more.

execise is great for the weight loss Jeremy. I'm still working out 6 days a week! I find that it really helps me keep the weight off.

Hi all!
I just started phase 1 today. My question for you all is, what can you drink on phase 1? My brother said just water. Can that be true? Any other suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks.

Hi Patsfan7
On phase 1 the only thing he doesn't want you to drink is fruit juice and regular pop. You can have diet pop, vegetable juices, sugar free kool-aid, ice tea, etc. Also, in an update last year, they added up to 2 serving of skim or 1% milk to phase 1. Good luck getting started.

Sorry, I missed the question! Jeremy gave you the list. Welcome to SBD

Ok 3rd times the charm right? Well I'm getting ready to give SB one more try. My question is what else can I have for breakfast besides eggs? I like eggs but maybe every other day or something. I need to fill in the egg gaps. Any good suggestions?

 

[sm4987]

plenty, have a salad. Grab some chicken breasts and have them. I look at it this way. Whatever I can have for lunch or dinner, I can have for breakfast!!!

Hi...

Um...is it too late to join? I mean, I haven't gotten started yet, but will somebody save a place for me on the Beach, pretty please?

 

[spb999]

Plenty of sand on the beach for everyone Tigercheer ... good luck getting started !

 

[sm4987]

Welcome, Tigercheer!!! Always room. Come back anytime, and we will help you out, support you, give you a computer to cry on any time!

 

[Patsfan7]

Welcome TigerCheer. I just started on Tuesday! I have so much to learn. I am trying to remember all the items we ate last year when we were on the Beach....also, I am beginning to read this thread from page one. I am up to post number 90. So far there are two recipies! Yeay!

Good luck! I will post again upon Tuesday morning weigh in. (I hopped on the scale a few times, and the weight yo-yo's, but at the lowest I was already down 9!!!! Let's hope it's not a false positive for the real weigh in on Tuesday morning!)

I never thought of that. It would take some getting used to, but I'm willing to try it.
