My first official day on south beach!! I work nights so I guess technically speaking-it was last night.
I made some shrimp scampi w/sauted veggies for dinner (around 1130p) it was really good and surprisingly filling!!
I'm SO excited to have found this forum. I've done south beach before and after the first week-I was so burned out on eggs,salad, and chicken I thought I was going to scream!!
but this time around-thanks to this forum-I know I'll breeze right through it.
i'm starting out at 103 (yes I know for most people this is small but I'm really tiny and all my weight went around my waist and in my thighs-I want it gone)-goal weight is 93 where I am most comfortable.
my goal is to STAY POSITIVE!!! |

Yaaayy!! this is so cheesy-but i've lost a pound already!!
I feels good to know that the weight is coming off (I know it might have just been the way I stepped on the scale but I'll take what I can get-lol).
adjusting hasn't been so bad. I made some beef and bean stir-fry today using northern beans, beef strips, bell pepper,onion,garlic,and tomato.
it was really good!! (my bf even ate it).
I'm not really craving sweets which is SO weird-I even drank my ice tea plain when I got to work!!! |

I'm on a role but today was HARD. I'm starting to get that sweet craving!! I made brownies last night for my bf since he's not really following the diet like I am and has wanted something sweet for past few days. It was SO hard not to eat one. I ended up making a "mock frosty" using the recipe I got from here and it was awesome!! took away the sweet craving. I even froze some to take to work today.
so far, I've lost almost 3 pounds. I'm going to start using my exercise ball tomorrow to help bump up my metabolism.
hope everyone is doing well!!! |

| I'm off to search for the mock frosty recipe LOL. Are you on day 3? That's when my cravings hit the most as well. Hang in there! They pass - though I don't know if I could withstand real brownies! Torture for sure!! |

did you find the mock frosty recipe? If not-I can maybe link it to you. it's SO good.
I'm on day 3 and messed up BIG TIME today :cry:
I'm going to have to start over tomorrow. I had a rough morning when I got off of work. Right after dropping my kids off at school and heading home for much needed sleep, my car started overheating!!! I barely made it off the freeway and got my car parked. Tried calling my bf but his ringer was shut off b/c he was sleeping (we both work nites). So I started walking home. 4 miles and 1.5 hours later-I was home,in tears,overheated,and exhausted!!! I spread out on the living room floor (wood floors) to cool off. My bf came in to check on me and got very upset saying he was so sorry and helped take my shoes off and got me water to cool down. I was sore and sunburned (I live in AZ-lucky me)
I got 2 hours of sleep and packed a SB P1 friendly meal to take to work w/me.
When I got to work, it was crazy busy!! we had a pt coming back from surgery and a new pt coming in that was shot in the head and not doing well.
So I was overtired,sore,sunburned,stressed out about my car and busy from work. I walk into the breakroom to put my lunch away and there was a CHOCOLATE COSTCO CAKE on the counter!!! I LOVE costco cake-my weakness when I'm NOT stressed out!!!
I CAVED!!!! I had a huge piece w/lots of frosting. I felt horrible about it later on but I couldn't help it. naturally, I got sick b/c I'm not used to all the sugar so I stayed away after that but when lunch time came around-I didnt want my black beans and tuna so I ate a chicken and cheese burrito (the tortilla was probably the only thing bad about it).
I hate myself right now-I can't believe I slipped up!! I'm afraid to way when I get up tomorrow-i'll probably have gained all the weight back I lost (ugh)!!!
I need encouragment-has this happened to anyone else? will it be hard for me to drop any of the weight I might gain over next day?!!
