South Beach Diet

Hi Ladies! What's shakin? Happy Holidays to all. I was curious if anyone has tried the SB diet? I tried it, phase one of the diet is similar to how we ate in the beginnig after surgery. I tried phase one and immediately dropped 8 pounds in the first five days. I wasn't hungry and I didn't crave sweets at all after the second day. I was doing so well, going into day ten, then I took my kids to a halloween party and that was all she wrote... that carb devil showed and I've been trying to get back on track ever since. I plan to start again the day after Thanksgiving. THanks, Teah

Hi Teah I have not tried the South Beach Diet, but I did briefly look into it before I had my surgery and from what I remember it is very similar to how we should eat as post-ops. That carb monster seems to get a lot of folks. Hopefully you can conquer that beast once and for all. Traci

Hi Teah! I've tried South Beach and it works very well. My general doctor highly recommends it. I lost 15 lbs on it (a year ago)! I really should consider it again. I'm struggling. That 10-20 lb. bounce folks talked about is for real!!! Hugs! Denise
