On Plan Thread 8/24 - 8/30
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?
How's it going for you?
Of course feel free to share your daily on plan menu...

Gosh, ladies, I have "started" Phase 1 at least 3 times this month. I got derailed by meals at the house of friends and traveling. I am going to try again.
with my long days, I have to have everything prepped, so new excuses!
Tammy, I'm assuming you meant NO excuses?
Monday
B- veggie omelet
L- big salad w/ deli meat
S- salsa, hummus, veggie strips, 15 cashews
D-grilled chicken, Jennifer's veggie salad side dish
D-SF pudding
I think I am going to keep lots of gum handy to combat mindless snacking.

Went to Panera last night, picked the garden veggie with pesto soup thinking it would be safe phase I - but it had bulgar in it. Not a huge deal, didn't set me off into binges, and still dropped 1/2 lb water weight on the scale.
I'm not posting this week because I'm literally eating the same thing day after day! I am going out to eat today for a business luncheon, I plan on having a salad. If I move into phase 1.5 with fruit, I'll forgive myself.
And yes, Lindsay! We need you every day...you are our leader!

Tammy, I feel the same way! I have had the same thing for breakfast and lunch 6 out of the last 7 days! And if I was home alone I could make a casserole last all week for dinner!!
(and I avoided posting yesterday when I had too many cheats)
