Week three and four: move to four good carbs choices daily: 1-2 fruits and 1-2 starches. Read more advice on reintroducing carbs here. Want specific food choices?

I gave each phase its own post. You can now click on the post number and see just that one post for easier printing. :idea:

It can be very confusing at first so don't be afraid to ask questions. Phase II can be even more confusing so keep at it and ask away!! :agree: :cool:

From today's SBD Daily Dish:

Do You Know the Many Benefits of Fiber?
The South Beach Diet has always been a fiber-rich plan, designed to encourage eating plenty of high-fiber foods, such as legumes, whole grains, and whole fruits and vegetables. Why the emphasis on fiber? A high-fiber diet can help normalize your blood sugar levels, improve your cholesterol levels, have a positive effect on bowel function, and help keep you from feeling hungry, which aids in weight loss.
"Fiber plays an important role in long-term health," says Dr. Arthur Agatston, preventive cardiologist and author of The South Beach Diet Supercharged, "but as a society, we don't consume nearly enough. According to some statistics, Americans only eat between 12 and 17 grams per day when they should be getting 25 to 30 grams per day."
There are two forms of fiber: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels by delaying the absorption of glucose in your blood stream. It also improves cholesterol levels by reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the bloodstream. Insoluble fiber adds bulk to your stool, which promotes regularity. It's important to consume both types of fiber for good health. Most foods contain both types of fiber, but oats, nuts, beans, and fruit contain predominately soluble fiber while whole grains and vegetables contain more insoluble fiber.
Fortunately, if you're eating the South Beach Diet way, you don't need to count grams of fiber or worry about whether you're meeting your fiber needs. The program was doctor-designed to ensure that you're reaping the benefits of a fiber-rich meal plan

OK, enough. I had a rough week (or two? I don't even know - I lost track of time). I was just in a bad place emotionally and rebelled against my "diet" big-time. I won't go into details here (maybe later in my journal I'll hash it all out for my own future reference), but suffice it to say that I went back to a lot of old bad habits. I messed up big-time, but now it's time to straighten myself out and undo the damage.

Starting today I'm back in Phase 1.

Hello :wave: , I'm new to SBD. I weigh one pound less than I did 5 days ago, not sure if it's down to SBD as it is only my third day following the plan. I'm really enjoying this WOE, so I sure hope this works for me.

[skippie]

Welcome niknak I moved your name so you're in alpha order on the list.

I hated to post my wieght but it is what it is right now.
I've had my struggles the past month. Its time to step up and figure out what I want for myself.

Have a great day Everyone.

After a week of P1 and posting my weigh-in weight 3/4 days late I am finally back to my low weight! YaY!
Now just gotta work on staying on track!

[Judynyc]

Good job Marie!! :thup:
Now, my advice to you is to not eat grain and do add in some starchy veggies and your fruits instead. :idea:

[niknak]

Thanks Skippie, wishing you all the best. Well done Mary, I long for that day. :) Hope everyone else is good.

Good Morning! :wave:

I was just reading an article about diabetes as I don't know a lot about it and feel I should know more. Anyway....it had an interesting bit of info that I found to be good:

Insulin resistance is the ever spiraling condition in which the body cells are unable to respond properly to and use the insulin it produces. We stimulate and abuse the production of insulin over and over again. After a hi glycemic meal the blood sugar spikes rapidly - more insulin is produced so it falls just as quickly, and uncontrollable hunger make us crave more & more food. We become addicted to hi glycemic foods.

It also talks a lot about the Glycemic Index, which SB is based upon.

I hope you can check it out. :idea:

Okay I am 3 weeks into the SBD. I am eating basically a lot of whole healthy foods, lots of veggies, low fat meats, fruits (legal ones only) and yogurt, steel cut oatmeal, one daily whole grain include (ww pita, Dempsters new Body Wise bagals, wraps and breads -80 cal per serving) and I even made my old recipe of bran muffins that are made with baby food prunes and drinking smoothies. I am regimented to have 3 meals and 2 snacks and even bought sugar-free peanut butter cups for a treat.

So here is the amazing thing...I have not felt this good in over a year or more. My mood is way way WAY improved. I am sleeping through the night and instead of waking at 3:00, 4:00 and finally getting out of bed at 4:30-5:00 a.m. I am actually sleeping - this morning 6:05! And the best thing...my bowels are moving (sorry for being so personal) but if any of you have had this problem you know its a major event in one's life. So instead of going 2-3 times a week (like I was on strictly low carb) I have gone twice a day the past 3 days (very exciting!).

I wanted to get down to 155 by May when I'm hoping to go to Las Vegas, but feeling this good even losing 1 pound a week is making me happy. I do need to step up the exericse, though.

Just wanted to share! Have a great week everyone. :)

ahhhh...I feel much better!! :D

[donnaliz67]

UGH - it's not pretty, but here's the truth. I'm up 10 lbs from last month, 7 lbs from the last time I tried to get my act together. It is TOM (AGAIN - seems like every time I turn around it's here!!!), so I know that SOME of the gain is water weight, but definitely not all of it.

I'm done slacking - as of today I'm back on Phase 1 with a vengeance.

Congrats!
Water weight is a big bully! He (personifying water weight, lol) crushes our spirits and gets the best of our emotions at times, you are fighting him off!
Good for you!

[skippie]

Well I've got another cold which I caught from Mark again!!! We can't seem to stay well this year. I'm sure he got from work as they are all still sick there.
I'm paying the price for our weekend away I knew it would happen it does every year. But now with my cold I'm sure it will take a little longer to see my weight drop.

I posted some links if you all want to see what we did last weekend just pop over to my journal.
Our guys did really good they took first place. And the Indiana staff invited them to preform at our Spring Rally too. They are talking about it we all have free passes to the rally even if they don't preform.
