On Plan Thread June 2 - 8
Happy June:flow2:
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 |

Roldgold831, i love smoothies but didnt even think of them since im in phase 1 and cant have fruit. I skipped breakfast monday and today but im going to google some phase 1 smoothies to add in for breakfast. Even the one you list looks phase 1 friendly
|
Angel, did you check Phase 1 breakfast smoothies under the recipe section? There's a few different ideas.
You could even do this without the banana. http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/brea...-smoothie.html I made one the other day with frozen spinach, protein powder (chocolate), milk, cottage cheese and ice. Tasty! |
Angel33618,
Yes the smoothie I had is phase 1 friendly, and its DELICIOUS! It's also very filling. I definitely recommend it!! |
Phase 1
Egg white omlette w/ bell peppers & laughing cow V8 Raw veggies w/ hummus Greek yogurt Diet coke Chicken "wing" salad Glass of skim milk Cucumber slices w/ light cream cheese |
oh my gosh I fail so badly when I am not planning/posting my menu. Scary :yikes:
B - coffee with us almond milk. Protein smoothie ... with spinach/flax meal/chia seeds/cinnamon ... trying 1 tsp maca powder. I'm curious if it will increase energy. L - Veggie hotdogs with veggie chili. Weird but I love it. Iced tea. S - Hummus with peppers/celery/carrots D - Chili-lime fish cakes (no bread crumbs) with salsa and avocado, big green salad dessert - Greek yogurt with homemade almond butter. EXERCISE: walking AND yoga |
Phase 1.5
Ok, I've gained back most of the weight I lost after moving to phase 2, and only over the last couple of days have I noticed big change once I added fruit back in. I SEEM to be able to handle the grain. I don't know, but I'm very discouraged now and I have to start over and really pay more attention to what I'm eating. I'm also going to try to figure out and make a list of what I've been doing wrong. I'm upset, but at the same time I don't want to give up, I want to figure out the problem and get the scale going back in the right direction... B: egg whites, LS ham, LF Swiss, hot sauce L: 4 Morningstar links, roasted red peppers, 1 slice toasted rye, 1 laughing cow S: snap peas, spicy guacamole D: turkey burger patty, grilled fresh onions and mushrooms, steamed veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, squash) D: vanilla ricotta creme Exercise: Strength training (my cardio class was cancelled) |
Phase 1.5 (only because of some carrot)
B - coffee with us almond milk. Cheesecake smoothie with ~ 1c. spinach added. L - Green salad (~2 c. lettuce) with leftover delicious chili-lime tuna cake, salsa, 1/4 sliced avocado. Iced tea. S - bell pepper, broccoli, carrot (0.5 cup each) with hummus. D - Shrimp with cauli-rice (2 c). Cucumber (1 c.) salad dessert - Greek yogurt Exercise... who knows? I have been incredibly lax in that area. |

Also you are using a lot of fake meat products? (I have too but I am trying to cut back). They can have a lot of sodium, which *could* have an effect on water retention. Some people report having issues with artificial sweeteners. That's all I can think of based on the menu you posted. I hope you figure out something that works soon. It is incredibly frustrating to put forth effort and see no results!! I know, I have been there :( |
Hi Emma,
Yes, I use a lot of fake meat products (the soy ones by Morningstar)... I also started using monk fruit in the raw as opposed to the equal I was using. I've just added to the rest of my menu from today. |
Thanks Beth19

Good morning,
B: egg whites, LF alpine lace Swiss, low sodium ham L: 3 Morningstar links (gotta finish 'em up, then I won't buy them anymore due to sodium content), fresh snap peas, roasted peppers, spicy guacamole, 1 laughing cow, 1 slice rye toast D: egg salad (2 eggs w/ 1 tbls mayo, pepper) on 1 slice rye toast D: vanilla ricotta creme I had 1 more slice of rye toast than I probably should've. I also couldn't make it to my zumba class tonite due to a leg injury (hope its better by weds, but if its not I have a dr appt and I'll get it checked out. |
