Question about what to eat on Diet

  • Hello-
    Are green beans and black-eyed peas ok to eat on the SBD? I'm pretty new to the diet so I wanted to check.

    Also, is drinking caffeine tea not good? I know in the book it states to drink de-caf but I was wondering what others have experienced.

    Thanks for all the help!
  • caffeinated drinks can cause cravings.

    black eyed peas and green beans are both ok.

    There is a list of approved foods in the SBD Frequently Asked Questions subforum at the top of the main South Beach screen.
  • yep both are fine

    green beans are unlimited

    BEP are limited to 1/3-1/2 cup serving 2-3 times a day.

    you can have the caffeine tea as long as it does not make you hungry in reasonable amounts, I have regular coffee twice a day.
