Hello out there - time for a new thread - Donna, Annette?

I figured I would start a new thread instead of adding on to old ones.
I'm still hanging in there - I was down to 195.6 today, so that's 8 lbs. since Monday - I certainly can't complain about that. I just feel so mad at myself that I've lost 8 lbs. and I'm still in the mid-190's. I promised myself I'd never get above 180 again and look where I am! I'm so afraid to gain back the weight and even after 4.5 years, I still don't know how to eat right. I'm a sugar and bad carb-aholic and I really believe the only way to deal with that is abstinence. That's why the South Beach diet is so good for me. I'm still kind of doing the liquid thing - a protein shake in the morning, cream of chicken soup for lunch and then maybe eggbeaters for dinner. That's it. On Monday I will go back on the SBD. I'm glad I still have my menus from the last time I did it - I will follow that. I would really recommend it because I felt like I was eating all day.
I'm also trying to do at least 30 minutes of exercise 6-7 days a week.
How's everyone doing???
