Ugh I'm so mad at myself! I wouldve finished 2 weeks of phase 1 tommorow but yesterday I ate yellow rice lol. I was starving and we hadn't gone shopping.
I hear you about the eggs - I boil like a dozen and leave them at work for the week.
I don't have any recipes for breakfast that doesn't involve eggs lol. But sometimes I'll microwave a boca burger and melt some cheese on top with some veggies.
Usually if I don't eat breakfast at home I'll have nuts and a light and fit at work. But that's not really followin it since you need veggies at every meal.

Re: southbeach dieters.
Get ready to eat a lot of eggs. Stock up on nuts and sugar free jello and yogurts. There isn't a lot you can eat during the first phase so make sure you have healthy snacks on you in case of hunger. I like to keep cut up peppers, cucumbers and celery in plastic bags. When I get hungry I throw some low fat feta on them with balsalmic dressing and its a good filling snack. I also eat a lot of ricotta. They have recipes in the book for the ricotta and I love it. I feel like I am eating ice cream and it helps with my sweet tooth.

Good luck! I want to try this diet out, I'm thinking of getting the book. Are there any tips you can give me? I've never done it before.
You definitely have to be on point with grocery shopping. You always need fresh veggies, cheese, etc. I had to buy salad for lunch so many times because I didn't plan ahead.
Like I mentioned before, i boil a bunch of eggs at once and keep them at work for a protein snack. whole eggs are unlimited. You can also marinade a bunch of chicken breasts and grill them all at once for salads or lettuce wraps.
Even though you can eat nuts and cheese, they do limit the portion. I have trouble with that!
