On Plan Thread Mar 31 - Apr 6
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 |

Phase 1 help
I have lost about 18 pounds since Christmas (counting calories and exercising). I decided to do South Beach to try to get off about 10-15 more pounds. I am using the original SBD book (phase 1). The last time I did the diet. There were South Beach Diet frozen or refrigerated meals and salad dressings which I have not seen lately. My question is about the Atkin's frozen meals. I look at the ingredients and they look fine to me. The have about 20-22 grams of fat and that part worried me. What do y'all think?

Hi Patterson31205.
I am definitely no expert on what to look for in convenience foods. Maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in soon! My Meals for today: Breakfast Cottage cheese 1/2 red pepper Lunch turkey & veggie sautee 2 C raw veggies Dinner Steak Salad Mashed cauliflower Snacks 1/2C Greek yogurt 15 mixed nuts |
Originally Posted by patterson31205: 20-22 grams of fat seemed like a lot to me, so I searched other popular frozen food brands (ie; Lean Cuisine & Smart ones) and the highest grams of fat for the products I clicked on was 10g... that is a big difference. If it was me, I wouldn't bother with that atkins product. ps; Kraft foods discontinued the SBD living line of frozen meals *to the best of my knowledge. |
Phase 1.5 (fruit, no grain)
Scrambled eggs V8 Raw veggies Greek yogurt Cheese string Diet coke Veggie & chick pea soup Garlicy green beans Glass of skim milk Grapes Pistachios |
Thanks for your responses. I am new to the board. I would love to eat all organic and no pre-packed food as well. I just don't have time - I am a working mom with a two and four year old with lost of irons in the fire. I am going to keep one of the frozen meals on hand for an emergency use, but try to stay away from them.
