Weight Loss South Beach Diet? Sep 02 2007

Great postings everyone! I have change my lifestyle to make south beach the way that I eat permanently. I lost 15 lbs. lsat summer and kept it off until I lost control during the holidays. This Aug. I realized I needed to make the commitment to eating healthfully for life. I have lost 7 lbs. in 3 weeks and I am not hungry nor do I crave anything. I love the way I feel. I also exercise on a regular basis and look forward to continuing this lifestyle. I had my cholesterol checked last year and was done several points. I just had it checked again so I will psot the results when they arrive in the mail. I am very hopeful that it wil be even more improved. I tried the lemon chicken couscous in the book recipe section for phase 2; it was great! My sons loved it. I didn't ahve broccoli on hand so I shredded zuchini which is very plentiful right now. It worked great with the recipe. I don't care for the ricotta deserts in phse 1 and I didn't care for the surprise mashed potatoes using cauliflower, but ovber all, the recpires are great. I also picked up the cookbook and have tried many of the recipes. I also just adapt my everyday foods, too. It has become so easy. I am really hopeful to drop the next 20 lbs. slowly and permanently. This holiday season I won't fall off the wagon.

This is just what I need! I am 5'6' and weigh 155 right now. I would love to drop 10 lbs. by Halloween. My goal is 130 eventually. I use an exercise video and walk at least 30 minutes every day. Sometimes I bike. I took up kayaking this summer which I love. I've just joined the local YMCA, too, so I hope to find some classes to keep me working out and doing that in interesting ways. I walk alot at work and my office is on the 2nd floor so I use the steps and since the main office is on the first floor, I go up and down them often! I have lost 7 lbs. in the last three weeks. I have a co-worker that is also trying to get back in shape, so we hold each other accountable. That really helps. Good luck everyone!

Weight today: 154 lbs.

Weight last week: 154 lbs.

Total pounds lost: 8 lbs.

Complaints: I really have gone overboard this week with eating out and not choosing wisely.

Praises: I got out to walk a few times anyway!

How do some of you lose so much? I guess I should be happy that it is going slow and steady. I like that my clothes are fitting better!

I drik slim fast for breakfast. It's a quick way to start the day as I run out the door and drive! Also, it has 50% calcium which is really important for me as I try to get more than the 100% recommended for daily intake. The rest of my meals are usually lean cuisine or smart ones or salads or fish. I have healthy snacks in between.
