On Plan Thread, Week of Oct.3-9
It's time for a new week of talking On-Plan! This is the place for South Beach meal plan and food support, encouragement and questions.
Anyone, from any phase (1, 1.5, 2, 3, etc.) can post, and those who are new to 3FC are especially encouraged to do so! This thread is for questions, sharing advice and strategies, and encouraging each other to stay on plan. It is not for chatting about daily life unrelated to this topic. Members have indicated that they would like to have chatting remain in the Daily Thread, so any posts that are off topic or chatty will be moved by the mods to the Daily. People in different phases of South Beach post here so it will help everyone if you indicate what phase you're in when you post. Thanks! While you may certainly find, from time to time, the need to ask for help after going off plan, remember that this thread is about staying on plan. When you share details of off plan foods you've eaten, it can upset, tempt, and otherwise frustrate other members, so please keep these details to a minimum. So, share with us: How are you staying on plan this week? |
My life has been crazy the last week. I started working at a new gym as an instructor, so I've been training at one place and teaching at the other. I've tried my hardest to keep our homeschool front and center in my priorities, as well as planning a birthday party for my husband and a baby shower for my best friend. I really need to start making sure this stuff all doesn't fall on the same week. Thankfully, the parties are over and went over well and now I can focus on training, school and eating right!

So it's been a couple months since I've been on here, and I'm back up to the mid-high 140s. I'm jumping back on P1 and restarting after a couple months away. I decided this morning I was starting SB again, so I didn't have much SB friendly food at home. I'm posting as I go, and heading to the grocery store to stock up.
P1: B: 2 eggs; coffee with LF milk and 2 splenda S: slice LF cheddar, 5 cashews L: yogurt, sf syrup, 10 cashews D: black beans and chicken; broccoli cauliflower soup |
Hey Nicole - I have a similar situation, bumped up to the low 140s again last month. A few days back on plan and I am in the high 130s again but I am trying to claw myself down closer to "goal" again. I am eating way too many grains recently to lose any weight so I'm going to have to kick the delicious whole wheat sourdough bread to the curb :( (one more batch and then I am freezing the starter for another time).
Phase 2, randomness as I clean out the fridge/freezer B - coffee w us almond milk. A slice of homemade whole wheat sourdough bread with almond butter, water with a splash of us cranberry juice L - veggie burger with sharp cheddar and sliced tomatoes (no bun), sweet potato fries, spinach salad S - broccoli & cauliflower with hummus. D - don't know yet, maybe the same as yesterday dessert - Greek yogurt with wild blueberries |
Hanging in there. Maintaining weight without much exercise this week, so I guess my diet has been ok.
