Eating out during phase 1 of south beach diet?

I started the south beach diet this past sunday and have been eating pretty much from the book. The only exceptions I had were to go to a burger joint with a friend on Friday and a mexican restaurant with my family tonight.

At the burger place I had the burger with lettuce and tomatos, no bun, ketchup or fries. Tonight I had a chicken fajita entree with no tortillas, chips, sour cream or rice. Just the chicken, peppers, onions, guac and fresh tomatos.

Do you think I did alright with eating to the phase 1 restrictions? I'm just worried that by eating out it'll ruin my diet and I won't be able to cleanse my body like I've been intending to by this diet. I know I still have another week, I just wanted to see how I did and if I won't be too screwed. I've lost 3 pounds so far though (weighed in this morning).
