That's it for now - I'll post the other 7 days of Phase 1 later on....

Re: SOUTH BEACH DIET DETAILS

I started this diet on Monday, and weighed myself at the gym on Wed night and had already lost 2 pounds. I am pretty happy with that. I am surprised that the eggs everymorning for breakfast every morning isn't bothering me too much yet...However, by this time next week I'm sure I will be singing a different tune, and say I never want to see another egg in my life!!!
Good uck to all of you who are doing it

Re: SOUTH BEACH DIET DETAILS

It is a great diet- just one warning with the veggie and tomatoe juice. It spiked up my bloodpressure, b/c of all the sodium. Get the low sodium brand.

Re: SOUTH BEACH DIET DETAILS

You know there is a MUCH better food plan- more realistic- that doesnt require you to buy the book or make any of their recipes- do a search on south beach diet- it will come up- print up the phases and it gives you the foods not to eat during those phases as well, IMO the blue book is a waste spend that money on the gold south beach diet recipe book! I will look it up I know I have it somewhere and post!

Re: SOUTH BEACH DIET DETAILS

Christine, that's really nice of you to type all that out for us! Your fingers must be exhausted! Thank you!

the food is much easier to follow

Re: SOUTH BEACH DIET DETAILS

Awesome! My cousin did this and lost 50lbs - he was meticulous about it though. Two of my friends did it too and did horribly.

I would love to try it, but kinda hard since I am a vegetarian!
