well started south beach diet today, its ok just alittle scared. it's mostly things i dont really eat. but ya gotta do what you gotta do. i have 6wks to lose 39lbs. is there anyone else that is doing the same diet? would like to here from others that is currently doing or have done it. can you tell me how much weight you lost.

so far this is what i have done today

b-2 turkey sausages, auqafina flavor wather

s-hand full of nuts,water

l-sm. salad, water, med. coffee:tongue2:

My doc put me on this for 10 days before my surgery and I think I lost like 12 lbs. My husband went from like 250 to 206 on it.

We basically bought a bag of chicken breasts and low cal/low sugar sauce to cook it in and cooked green Beans or black eyed peas with some salsa... we ate that meal for a while. salad with that one cal. spray dressing or just oil and vinegar... it gets easier after that first 2 week phase one diet.

It does work if you follow it.

thanks for the responce so here is what i ate today and tell me what you think

b-2turkey sausages, flavored Water

s-hand full of nuts, water

l-sm. salad,water,med. coffee

s- slim fast shake, Peanut Butter Protein bar

d-6 large shrimps, 1 cup of stir fried veggies, water, hot tea w/2 slenda packets.

give me some suggestion on what u eat

Hi China,

I eat a lot of grilled or roast chicken with a low glycemic vegitables...like spinach, greens, string Beans and plenty of salads. You can load your salads up with artichoke hearts, cucumbers, small amount of tomatoes, onions and feta cheese. Lean steaks are good too...throw em on the grill as the weather is still nice.

I don't know if you can make 39lbs in such a short amount of time but if you stick with phase one ..you should get real close to your goal!

The dietician at BGH gave me 2 lists for Phase 1 of South Beach and Phase 2... I can fax you the list if you don't have it. Just let me know.

have been eating alot of chicken and veggies. and alot of water. i she gave it to me also. just alot of the things that are on there i dont eat. but, i can do chicken. and steak some times. gets alittle hard to cook 2 seperate meal for you and for the family. but, im gone hang in there as i really want this.
