hi everyone! I completed my first day of P1 (something I haven't been able to do in a while)

Cinnamon Omelette. . .ummm. . .not to sure about that one.

Twilight. . .I remember when I was on the SBD 5 years ago, I was scared to transiiton to P2 but as long as you take it slow, you will be fine. GOOD LUCK!

OMG. thats the funniest thing I've read in a long time. thanks!

I read the book but I obviously am lost Milk?? I know it is in the new book but I thought still to be careful I eat cheese...And beans everyday arent they high in carbs i know they have lots of fiber...confused help I can add beans i like black beans in my salad at lunch so tell me what kind and how much I can use daily...

Bekabu, you can have beans. We don't count carbs. SB is a healthy carb, not a low carb diet. I eat beans every day. Sometimes more than one serving a day. You can have any kind of beans. Check the list Ruth made in the SB FAQ's. Start with 1/2 cup serving. You can also have 2 servings of dairy a day. If you print the Phase I & Phase II lists out to refer to, it makes things much easier. I used them way more than the stuff in the book. :)

South Beach isn't really a "low carb" plan. You can definitely have beans. I eat them almost every day.Personally, I don't limit beans at all. I eat mostly black beans but there are many options. The allowed beans are on page 178 of the "Supercharged" book. It says to start with 1/3 to 1/2 cup as a serving.

SB allows 2 cups of dairy per day, and cheese is counted as a protein, not in the dairy allowance. Once you are in phase 2 you can have up to 3 cups per day of dairy.

good morning! its another sunny day on the beach! have a great day ya'll :D

So excited!
 

I'm in a pair of size 18 pants that I haven't been able to get into for 2 years! :carrot: And they are comfy - no muffin top!

Hooray for you!!! I put on my size 14 jeans this week. I can get them zipped up. They look great as long as I'm standing up. When I sit, the seams scream! 5 more pounds... :D

WooHooo! I'm so excited for you!!!! :cp:

It must be such a great feeling to put on a size pants that used to be too small! I can't wait!!

WTG twilightmom and Chelby!

Day 2 starts today. I did great yesterday! I am looking forward to another great day today!

Good morning ladies, I'm trying to do Phase 1 for a few days. Noticed that I have let some things creep into my WOE and as I am up 10 lbs from last year; need to start working on getting things right again before things get worse. Have been doing SB since June of 2003 but a refresher never hurts and with summer coming don't want to buy new clothes. Onward and forward.

Mythreesons - I found day 2 and 3 to be the hardest for me. I also found that SF Jello was the bomb and I don't know if I would have been it through without the Jello! Good luck to you! You can do it!!!! :D

What is WOE?

WOE = Way of Eating

Oh, our texting generation!

Check out the Acronym Sticky which I just moved here from the FAQ.

I'm a texter, and I'm usually pretty good at figuring them out, but I guess I was having a brain fart. *phhhttttt*
