I’m back.  While away from this blog for a few weeks I let myself eat whatever I wanted, then I decided to follow the Southbeach Diet.  I have been on SBD for the last two weeks, lost about 9 lbs, but slipped up during July 4th weekend.  Therefore, I am restarting phase 1.   I still have a 5 lb loss from the last two weeks, though!

Phase 1 allowed me to get through the day with little or no cravings.  This allowed me to keep within my target calorie intake to lose weight.

For exercise I am doing the Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred 3x a week, and I think I’ll add 2 days of the Jillian Michael’s kickboxing dvd.

Thank you for reading, and especially for those who commented.  I appreciate your support and suggestions!

I’m back on track to losing 45 more pounds!  Yay!
