Finally I stepped on the scale and I was down. For so long I have just been sitting at 234. I was beyond frustrated. That little bit of weight helps give me a boost of resolve to say no to bad foods and continue on my way.
I am one week into phase one of south beach and so far I feel good. I have resisted the urge to step on a scale and that is mainly because I so don't want to be disappointed. I just have this feeling that I will be the same or even worse, higher then last week. I have been oh so good and not cheated. No matter what, I am eating healthier so overall, it is a good thing.
I am having a little trouble with cravings today. I just want to go on an eating binge and eat everything that I am not allowed. I hope that blogging it will help curb the urge.
I have problems with binging when I am stressed or bored and maybe it is one of those episodes I feel. Either way, I have to fight through.
Today was a pretty good day. I refused to step on the scale...but I went to the doctor today so she did it for me. It said 233. A frightening number but lower then the last visit to her office. She will be doing some additional test for me this time.
I am having my adrenals tested along with my hormones. She also wanted to test for diabetes. I have no fear about that test. I have had it in the past and the results are negative but you never know. I am sure there will be a change in medication.
SB is still going good. I am still enjoying the food and have not cheated except for a little crouton and a fleck of cheesecake.
I am terribly creative with the titles aren't I?
I had a good day but I hardly feel like I am on a diet. I am eating things that taste great and I am not hungry. The craving are mostly gone but every once in a while I feel myself mentally thinking about eating something I should not. I quickly stop myself and I admit, sometimes I feel a little sad that I can not eat this or that ever again.
Made Chili last night. YUM!
**edit**
I admit I am a little frustrated. Initially I lost 2 to 3 pounds but seemed to have gone back up a pound again. I have been VERY good and not cheated once. What gives? Maybe I need to increase my water.
Yesterday was so much easier. The headaches passed by afternoon and I was having periods of time when I was not hungry or thinking about what i wished I could eat.
I am already down 3 pounds. I feel a little bad because I told myself I would not weigh myself more then nice a week but I could not resist. Besides, knowing that it is working makes the early stages of this diet easier.
I did good yesterday. I had a hell of a detox headache and a little bit of rice took care of that right away.
I can tell I am going to be sick of eggs soon so I will have to start being creative soon.
This morning is day 2 of my South Beach diet, henceforth known as SB because, damn...South Beach is a pain to type over and over again.
