Glad I did that “soft start” with begining this diet the past two days I was a bit off. XD

Friday -

• 1 Cup of veggies (early lunch)
• Lunch: Ham and Cheese Buckwheat Crepe with Side Salad, Nonfat Latte
• Snack: String Cheese, sugar snap peas, nonfat latte
• Dinner: Combination Plate @ favorite Middle Eastern resturant (various meats, salads, baba ganoush and humms, no rice)

Saturday -

• Calabacitas Omlette
• Black Iced tea one Splenda
• Snack: Cashews
• Lunch: @ Chipotle (Chicken Bowl, no rice, black beans, fajita veggies, pico and hot salsa with lettuce, side of guac), Coke Zero
• Grilled Chicken with Yuzu salt, Salad with roasted Asparagus and tomatos, Balsamic Dressing
• Blizzard (faaaailll) lol I know food isn’t a reward but my licensing test in the morning was brutal, this girl really needed chocolate!

Sunday

• Calabacita Scramble
• Water
• Swordfish Steak with Cucumber Salsa, Roasted Asperagus, Cottage Cheese, Side Salad with Balsamic Dressing (tasted like it had a ton of sugar XD)
• Snack: 2 Babybel cheeses
• Lean Hamburger Patty with Cheese, Garbonzo Bean Salad, Tabuli Salad, brocoli slaw, Some Jello Dessert, Chocolate Macaron
• Midnight Snack: Finish leftovers from Dinner Friday (meat, hummus, baba ganoush and salad)
• This all sounds like a ton, but they were smaller portions. I was especially proud of eating my 4.5 cups of veggies by lunch!

Tomorow it’s back to more serious planning. XD It’s hard to find “Breakfest Veggies”!

It’s a diet blog, are you excited? I am!

Here are my stats:

• Height - 6′2
• SW - 245
• CW - 244
• GW - 185

I also have PCOS, a Mitral Valve Prolapse and Ventricular Beats. I’m hoping that eating right will decrease my symptoms and improve my overall health. Seems resonable to me!

On June 18, I did a soft start to Phase 1 of the South Beach diet. I decided to do a soft start mainly because I need more variety of food at home, mainly I’m practicing getting 3 meals and snacks. So far so good!

Today’s Food Diary:

• Calabacitas Omlet (3 eggs, 1.5cup veggies, Green Salsa, 2% Mexican Cheese, Light Sour Cream garnish) - very filling!
• Diet Caffine Free Dr. Pepper
• Snack: 15 Chashews
• Chicken Bowl (from Chipotle) (Chicken, Black Beans, Fajita veggies, Pico de Gallo, Hot Salsa, little cheese, lettuce and Guac (as oil for meal))
• Venti Decaf Non-fat Iced SF Carmel Latte
• Snack: Cucumbers and Hummus
• Water Count: Around 2 liters

I don’t know that I made it to 4 cups of veggies today, I will try harder tomorow!

Tomorow I’m eating out 2 meals, I should do ok. More phase 2 type foods though, hence the soft start this week.
