Checking In - Monday, 7/14

Hi all, It's nice to see a few people checking in here - I love seeing some familiar faces and hearing how everyone is doing. I'm continuing on with the South Beach Diet - I've been going off a little bit, not really eating sugary or processed foods, but eating more than I should, so I'm going to try to nip that in the bud today and fine tune it a bit. Here's the plan for today: B: Eggbeaters with lf cheese, V-8, coffee with ff half-and-half S: Zucchini chips with hummus L: Large tossed salad with tuna salad, beans, salad dressing S: lite Jarlesberg cheese, 10 grapes D: Beef and mushroom stew, broccoli S: SF jello pudding and 2 T Cool Whip I'm hoping I can stick to it today. I also take two 40-minute walks per day. How's everyone doing? Hugs, Nancy

Hey Nancy! Glad to see you on the board, my consistent friend! Yesterday was a really good day. I stuck to protein. Didn't get back on the exercise trail yet. I'll start that tomorrow. Today...all protein again. I think I'm in a groove with that. Have a great day!!! Denise

Way to go Denise!! I know you can stick to it - sometimes it's just tough the first day or two, but once you get the sugar/processed foods out of your system, you won't crave them anymore. Then, once the weight starts to drop, you'll feel SOOOOO motivated! Hang in there!!! N.
