Countdown
If you're checking in just to be witness to the countdown...
-14.8lbs and losing! This was verified by my new scales both last night and this morning. I have lost nearly 1/2 of the weight I gained in the last three years.
I had gone about three days without the scales moving. I thought she was ignoring me or didn't like my singing anymore. Don't let on to her that I ever doubted her.
I have pretty much settled into this way of eating. I have had no bread or starches for two weeks. I think the only thing I miss in that group is Panera's Asiago Bagles and potatoes.
I have had no fruit for two weeks. I don't miss anything in that group because I'm not a big fruit consumer. I ate a lot of bananas before and now I find out it is the fruit highest in sugar!
I have had no dairy. This group I miss. I miss yogurt and milk.
I was supposed to refrain from drinking alcohol. I didn't. But I must admit that I didn't drink anything but wine and the most wine I drank all week was at Mug Club.
I am at a turning point.
Move on to phase two or stay here for another week?
Start exercising?

Holy hot potato Batman! (:-) I'm thrilled for you - and I want your secret...
I am a fruit and veggiholic but surprisingly enough I don't drink too much except in social situations...I think I could give up apples and spinach if it meant dropping some pounds as well...and if you can tell me the secret to quitting smoking I'll sell you my soul...:-)

Don't ask me how I quit smoking---I think I've just stopped for now. If I ever see my self repeating a bad habit again--it would be that one!!
I used the patch.
Two weeks on the South Beach Diet.
You can get a feel for it on the offical web. It explains the diet. I will admit that the quick and easy cookbook has some killer recipes (better than the diet book) and they all take less than 30 minutes to prep AND cook!
