Okay, as those of you who read my blog know, recently I quit drinking Diet Coke...Which was quite the task for me. But from that, came the idea that perhaps I am a bit more self-disciplined than I thought... What else could I attempt?
SO... The South Beach Diet begins today.
The South Beach Diet Phase 1 lasts for two weeks. During this first phase, I can eat only chicken, beef, turkey, fish, and shellfish, lots of vegetables, eggs, cheese, nuts, and garden salads using 100% olive oil for my salad dressing. Each day for 14 days, I will eat three, well-balanced meals.
This morning, for breakfast, I had a teeny bit of cottage cheese, skim milk, & one serving of liquid egg substitute (And I'm STARVING) But the idea is to flush the foods you crave out of your system for the first two weeks. I actually think I can do this! (I sure hope so, because I ate 2 Dilly Bars and a hand full of marshmallows yesterday :/ )
"I think I can, I think I can..."
you can do it!! i believe in you! if you can give up diet coke, you can do ANYTHING!!!!! keep us updated.
